<b>The Config Keeper</b>
</p>

<p>
Have you ever wondered:
</p>
<blockquote>
<p>
"Jeez Luiz, how can I manage all my configs across my desktop and server?"
</p>

<p>
&#x2013; You
</p>
</blockquote>

<p>
or maybe:
</p>
<blockquote>
<p>
"How can I possibly keep all my configs in sync across computers?"
</p>

<p>
&#x2013; You again
</p>
</blockquote>

<p>
<b>ck</b> is the solution you've been looking for all your life.
</p>

<p>
With it you can keep track of all the configs you cherish and love,
and store them neat and tidy in a folder you can later sync using
your favorite sync solution (git, nextcloud, rsync). You can even gift
your precious data to Google and use GDrive (<i><i>not recommended!!</i></i>).
</p>

<p>
After you create your local config db you can list them, edit them
and even search in them, all within the comforting hands of <b>ck</b>, your
faithful companion.
</p>

<p>
You can also use <b>ck</b> to store sensitive configurations (with passwords, etc)
and instruct it to save them in a different folder, so they won't be in the
same place with the normal ones (in the event you want to share your configs
with the rest of us).
</p>

<h3 id="orga2a199d">Technicalities</h3>
<div class="outline-text-3" id="text-orga2a199d">
<p>
Upon adding a config to <b>ck</b>, it moves it to the specified folder and adds a symbolic link
back where it came from (<code>ln -s</code>).
</p>

<p>
Make sure that the target program can read it's configuration from a symlink (the vast
majority should).

<h3 id="orge675bb7">Download</h3>
<div class="outline-text-3" id="text-orge675bb7">
<p>
Go ahead and download <b>ck</b> and give it a try. It comes with a help sub-command
that explains any inquires you might have.

ck's goal is to assist with the configuration file management.
To that end it tries to provides a cli interface that is pretty straight-forward

The first command after typing <b>ck</b> is the action you wish to perform. Actions are 
a very important concept of ck. With an action you can initialize <b>ck</b>, add/delete
configuration files to/from it, edit them, list them in various ways and search in their content.
</p>

<p>
Actions expect their arguments in the order specified below. This is done to reduce the amount
of flags one has to pass to ck.
</p>
</div>

<div id="outline-container-org8bc297f" class="outline-3">
<h3 id="org8bc297f">ck configuration</h3>
<div class="outline-text-3" id="text-org8bc297f">
<p>
ck uses sqlite to index the configuration files. The init
action creates a <b>.ck</b> directory (under <code>$HOME</code>)
in witch the <b>ckrc</b> and the <b>ckdb</b> reside. The first one contains
the two directories described above while the other one is the
sqlite db.
</p>

<p>
One can have multiple config directories with different configurations
each.
</p>

<p>
Using the special keyword <b>config</b> (or <b>-c</b>) you can set the path
in which ck will search for the <b>.ck</b> directory.
</p>

<p>
You can prefix every action with this and ck will use the configuration
directory of your choice.
</p>

<p>
Usage:
</p>
<div class="org-src-container">
<pre class="src src-sh">$ ck config ~/ ... <span style="color: #656565;"># </span><span style="color: #757575;">the default behaviour</span>

</p>

<p>
Adds a configuration to the ck database.
Add takes 2 to 4 arguments.
</p>

<ul class="org-ul">
<li><b>program_name</b>: the name of the program you add a config to</li>
<li><b>config_path</b>: the path to the config</li>
<li>Optional: (order doesn't matter)
<ul class="org-ul">
<li><b>-p</b>: the config will be the primary (relevant on edit below)</li>
<li><b>-s</b>: the config will be stored in the secret_dir</li>
</ul></li>

<p>
Keep in mind:
</p>
<ul class="org-ul">
<li>The config has to exist.</li>
<li>If you are adding a config to a program already existing in ckdb make
sure to use the same name.</li>
<li>Each program can have only one primary config.</li>
</ul>

<p>
Usage:
</p>
<div class="org-src-container">
<pre class="src src-sh"><span style="color: #656565;"># </span><span style="color: #757575;">add config to ck</span>

<p>
or ls or l or -l
</p>

<p>
List stuff ck knows about.
</p>

<p>
You can use the keywords:
</p>
<ul class="org-ul">
<li><b>paths</b>: to print all the paths ck tracks</li>
<li><b>programs</b>: to print all the programs ck tracks</li>
<li><b>-p progName</b>: (without the "&lt;&gt;") to print the paths of a specific program</li>
</ul>

<p>
With the flag <b>-t</b> and then one of the follwing types one can change
the way the list is printed:
</p>
<ul class="org-ul">
<li><b>plain</b>: simple listing (default)</li>
<li><b>python</b>: print like a python list</li>
<li><b>lisp</b>: print like a lisp list</li>
</ul>

<p>
Using the keyword <b>tree</b> ck can list the configurations under their
corresponding program, in a treelike structure.
</p>

<p>
Passing the <b>-a</b> flag will enable the listing of config attributes (secret or primary). 
It is best used with tree or plain paths.
</p>

<p>
With the keyword <b>ckconf</b> ck will list it's own configuration values (in ckrc).
</p>

<p>
Usage:
</p>
<div class="org-src-container">

The first argument is the <b>programName</b>. If the program has a primary configuration
edit will open this. If the program has only one configuration edit will open it.
