Installing using pip:

  pip install sniplet==1.0.7

Installing from source:

  1. Download the files from github

  2. Run the following command in the terminal

     python setup.py install

  3. If you don't want Sniplet to be installed globally, it is recommended to create a virtualenv to install it

Adding Sniplet to the PATH variable on Windows:

  1. The Windows install is slightly different and pip install is recommended

  2. After installing the package find the python install folder with the following command

      python3 -c "import imp, os; os.chdir(imp.find_module('sniplet')[1]); os.chdir('../'); os.chdir('../'); print(os.getcwd() + '\\Scripts\\')"

  3. Copy this path and add to the following command

      setx PATH "%PATH%;[PathCopied]"

Configuration:

  1. Run the following command to configure the text replacements

     sniplet --config

  2. Alternatively, you can create your own file with the following specification and save it as a txt file. An example is provided inside config-files

     Short:
 [Shortcut name]
 Repl:
 [Replacement lines]
 ...

Usage:

  1. To start Sniplet just invoke sniplet and mention the config file you want to use (created using --config)

  2. To start Sniplet with your custom file use the following command. Replace filepath by the path to your custom file

     sniplet --usrfile [FILEPATH]

  3. To stop Sniplet use the keyboard interrupt in the terminal
