Terminal & Fish Shell Skill
The developer uses fish shell (/opt/homebrew/bin/fish) with a customized set of aliases, functions, and PostgreSQL helpers stored in ~/.config/fish/conf.d/.
Config Files
| File | Purpose |
|---|---|
~/.config/fish/conf.d/zzz_aliases.fish |
Navigation, git, system, gRPC, Rust/Cargo shortcuts |
~/.config/fish/conf.d/pg.fish |
PostgreSQL CLI toolkit with dot notation + JSON output |
Quick Reference
| Topic | File |
|---|---|
| All aliases & shortcuts | aliases.md |
| PostgreSQL helpers | postgresql.md |
| gRPC debugging | grpc-debugging.md |
| Dev workflow patterns | workflow-patterns.md |
Most-Used Commands
Daily Development
dg # cd ~/Documents/Github
cw # cargo watch -x run --no-restart (hot reload)
cc # cargo check
ct # cargo test
ship "feat: add billing" # git add -A && commit && push origin main
kk # kill all dev server ports
Database Inspection
pguse anachak_dev # switch active database
pg auth_users # dump table as JSON
pgc payments # row count
pgs subscriptions # schema + indexes
pgf auth_users admin email # full-text search
pgq "SELECT * FROM..." # raw SQL → JSON
gRPC Debugging
list # list all gRPC services
show AuthService # list RPCs for a service
call '{"identifier":"admin"}' auth.v1.AuthService/Login # call with JSON
Important Notes
- Fish shell is the primary terminal — all commands and aliases use fish syntax
$PG_DBuniversal variable persists the active database across sessions (default:anachak_dev)- gRPC commands target
localhost:50050(the Anachak Rust backend default port) kkkills ports: 8080-8082, 50050-50054, 5173-5174, 3000-3002, 9090-9092- All
pg*commands pipe JSON output throughjq .for pretty-printing - Dot notation works on all pg commands:
pg anachak_dev.auth_usersorpgc rust_grpc.payments
