## kknife 0.1.2

#### Shortcuts for the chef `knife` command

kknife lets you use the shortest substring to uniquely identify a knife sub command. 

kknife also provides a `k` script to launch the lookups

`k n e somenode` = `knife node edit somenode`

`k c u somebook` = `knife cookbook upload somebook`

`k e ff somefile` = `knife environment from_file somefile`

`k -l` lists all your commands

`k -d` might tell you what's going wrong (debug).

All command line options at the end of the command are passed through to knife unmodified and work as knife specifies. 

#### Lookups 

Shortcuts and ambiguous commands are currently statically defined in `lib/kknife/lookup.rb`. These will be user configurable/overridable. Some form of json/yml blob in ~/.chef/ should do. 

##### Shortcuts

```

    'ff' => [ 'from', 'file' ],

    'db' => [ 'data', 'bag' ],

    'cs' => [ 'cookbook', 'site' ],

    'bd' => [ 'bulk', 'delete' ],

    'ne' => [ 'node', 'edit' ],

    'ns' => [ 'node', 'show' ],

    'rl' => [ 'run', 'list' ],

```

##### Ambiguities

```

    'd' => ['download'],

    'e' => ['environment'],

    'r' => ['role'],

    'c' => ['cookbook'],

```
