brew tap zdcthomas/tools
brew install dmux

• dmux <path> or <path> | dmux will open the workspace in the provided path
• dmux alone will use fzf to open up a list of dirs in ~. This is equivalent to saying fd -td . ~/ | fzf | dmux
• dmux --help for more information

Dmux's configuration tries to be very inclusive in terms of config file types. Dmux supports JSON, YAML, TOML, and HJSON. It also supports a variety of paths including ~/.dmux.conf.{file_type} ~/.config/dmux/dmux.conf.{file_type} and on Linux $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/dmux/dmux.conf.{file_type}

This config file has a profile named javascript and defaults set

layout = "5e09,281x67,0,0{133x67,0,0,17,147x67,134,0[147x33,134,0,18,147x33,134,34{73x33,134,34,136,73x33,208,34[73x16,208,34,164,73x16,208,51,165]}]}"
session_name = "development"
number_of_panes = 5
commands = ["nvim", "fish"]

[javascript]
number_of_panes = 3
session_name = "frontend"
commands = ["nvim", "fish", "yarn watch"]

Currently dmux relies on fzf to select a target dir to open the workspace in. If you have fd installed dmux will use it to speed up dir searching.

• Config file to be read on startup
• Args for layout string
• Profiles in config that represent sets of configuration.
• Config/Arg for dir search command
• Optionally uses fd for a faster/async dir search
• Subcommand for killing windows from fzf
• Subcommand to describe current layout
• Config/Arg for dir search depth
• One off commands that once completed, kill the pane their in, E.G npm i mix deps.get
• dmux.local.xxxx file so that specific dirs can have specific layouts. This is dangerous because dmux allows config to run arbitrary commands, which could be used to be malicious
• Switch to skim to avoid external deps
