Prompt to choose from recent bartib projects.

bartib_select.sh

#! /usr/bin/env nix-shell
#! nix-shell --packages bartib gum bash toybox gawk -i bash
# Make sure all dependencies are present
# toybox contains tac, head, tail

# Get current status of bartib
CURRENT_PROJ=$(bartib current)

# Put selection in function to ensure shorter lines
select_task()
{
return |\
    bartib last |\
    tail -n+3 |\
    head -n-1 |\
    gum filter --height 10 |\
    awk -F' ' '{print gensub(/[^[:digit:]]/, "", "g", $1)}'
}

# Select a recent task with gum and get it's id
SELECTED_TASK=$(select_task)

# If no project is currently running: Just start the selected and finish
if [[ $CURRENT_PROJ = "No Activity is currently running" ]]
then
    bartib continue $SELECTED_TASK
    exit 0;
fi

# If a project is already being tracked and the user has chosen
# the last one regardless (which will be the currently tracked one):
# Ask for confirmation
if [[ 0 = $SELECTED_TASK ]]
then
    gum confirm "Chosen project is already tracked.
    Restart regardless?" --default=false && bartib continue $SELECTED_TASK
else
    bartib continue $SELECTED_TASK
fi

I use nikolassv/bartib to track my work and I found myself regularly using bartib last followed by bartib continue <n> to continue one of my recently tracked projects.
So I wrote this script to instead have a interactive selection build with charmbracelet/gum.

If nix is not installed or the following are on the system installed anyways, the shebang can be omitted:

• bartib
• gum
• tac
• head
• tail
• bash
