Start your agents and go to lunch!\n\nDon't you hate OSX's launchctl?  You have to give it exact filenames, the syntax is annoyingly different from Linux's, and it is overly verbose.  It's just not a very developer-friendly tool.\n\nLunchy aims to be that friendly tool by wrapping launchctl and providing a few simple operations that you perform all the time:\n\n - ls [pattern]\n - start [pattern]\n - stop [pattern]\n - restart [pattern]\n - status [pattern]\n - install [file]\n - uninstall [pattern]\n - show [pattern]\n - edit [pattern]\n\nwhere pattern is just a substring that matches the agent's plist filename.  If you don't use a unique pattern, Lunchy will warn you of this and give you a list of the matching items instead.\n\nSo instead of:\n\n    launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/io.redis.redis-server.plist\n\nyou can do this:\n\n    lunchy start redis\n\nand:\n\n    \u003e lunchy ls\n    com.danga.memcached\n    com.google.keystone.agent\n    com.mysql.mysqld\n    io.redis.redis-server\n    org.mongodb.mongod\n\nThe original name was supposed to be launchy.  Lunchy isn't a great name but gem names are like domains, most of the good ones are taken.  :-(\n\n\n## Installation\n\n### Using RubyGems\n\n    gem install lunchy\n\nLunchy is written in Ruby because I'm a good Ruby developer and a poor Bash developer.  Help is welcome.\n\n### Using Homebrew\n\n    brew install lunchy\n\n## Thanks\n\nThanks to all the individual contributors who've improved Lunchy, see credits in History.md.\n\nLunchy was written as part of my project time at [Carbon Five](http://carbonfive.com).  [They're hiring](http://www.carbonfive.com/careers/) if you love working on Ruby and open source.\n\n\n## About\n\n* Mike Perham [@mperham](https://github.com/mperham) - [twitter: @mperham](http://twitter.com/mperham), [mikeperham.com](http://mikeperham.com/)\n* Eddie Zaneski [@eddiezane](https://github.com/eddiezane) - [twitter: @eddiezane](http://twitter.com/eddiezane), [doesnotscale.com](http://doesnotscale.com)\n* Mr Rogers [@bunnymatic](https://github.com/bunnymatic) - [twitter: @rcode5](http://twitter.com/rcode5), [rcode5.com](http://rcode5.com)\n* [and more](https://github.com/eddiezane/lunchy/graphs/contributors)\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Feddiezane%2Flunchy","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Feddiezane%2Flunchy","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Feddiezane%2Flunchy/lists"}
