Hurry

1.1 · active · verified Wed Apr 15

Hurry is a Python-based command-line interface (CLI) tool (current version 1.1) that helps users execute routine commands and scripts faster using templated configurations. It has a slow release cadence, with the latest update in 2019. It primarily functions as a standalone executable and is not intended for use as a traditional Python library with direct module imports.

Warnings

breaking The package name for Hurry was changed from `hurry-script` to `hurry` with the 1.0 release. Users who previously installed `hurry-script` must switch to `pip install hurry` to get updates and the current version.
Fix: Use `pip install hurry` for the current version. Uninstall `hurry-script` if it's still present: `pip uninstall hurry-script`.
gotcha This `hurry` package (from GitHub user Telichkin) is a command-line interface tool for managing and running shell commands. It is not the `hurry.filesize` library, which is a separate, older, and unrelated Python library for formatting file sizes.
Fix: Ensure you are using `hurry` as a CLI tool and not attempting to import modules that belong to the `hurry.filesize` package.
gotcha Hurry primarily functions as a command-line utility and does not expose a Python API for direct programmatic `import` and usage within other Python scripts. Its core functionality is accessed via the `hurry` executable.
Fix: Interact with Hurry via the shell commands (e.g., `hurry add`, `hurry run`) rather than attempting to `import hurry` into Python code.

Imports

hurry (CLI usage)
```
hurry add my_command 'echo Hello, World!'
```
Hurry is designed as a command-line tool, not a Python library to be imported into other Python code. Functionality is accessed via the 'hurry' executable from the terminal.
hurry.filesize (unrelated package)
wrong:
```
from hurry.filesize import size
```
correct:
There is a separate, older, and unrelated Python package named 'hurry.filesize' on PyPI that deals with human-readable file sizes. This 'hurry' package (by Telichkin) is a CLI tool for running commands and does not contain the 'filesize' module. Attempting to import 'hurry.filesize' will either fail or import the wrong package if both are installed.

Quickstart

Hurry helps you manage and execute frequently used commands via templates. First, add a command with a template, then run it, and finally, you can list or delete your saved commands.

# Add a command template
hurry add greet 'echo Hello, {name}!'

# Run the command template
hurry run greet --name Alice

# List all stored commands
hurry ls

# Delete a command template
hurry del greet
