My Open Source Projects
I love open source software — it lets me put food on the table. I give back whenever I can.
Check out all of my projects at github.com/itspriddle.
slack-notify
I send a lot of Slack notifications using incoming webhooks. I put together
slack-notify to do it quickly with just Bash, jq, and curl.
Tags: Bash, CLI, Slack, jq
gh-prq
I missed hub pull-request in GitHub CLI, so I
threw together gh-prq. It allows you to push a PR to GitHub and edit the
title and description in your $EDITOR.
Tags: Bash, CLI, Git
gh-render-markdown
I wanted to learn about extensions in the new GitHub
CLI, so I extracted an old script of mine into
gh-render-markdown. It sends Markdown files or STDIN to the GitHub API to
render into the same HTML you’d see on GitHub.
Tags: API, Bash, CLI, Git
gh-orgtools
I found myself working with A2’s repos and GitHub users and wanting a CLI, so I wrote gh-orgtools to save me some time.
Tags: Bash, CLI, Git
Bashword
I wanted a password generator that I could quickly drop on any system and created Bashword, a pure Bash password/passphrase/PIN generator.
Tags: Bash, Linux, Passwords, Windows, macOS
things-cli
I wrote things-cli to work with Things 3
on macOS. This was the first project I’ve done with Bash testing (via bats)
and GitHub Actions, and also the first one that I shipped a man page with.
Tags: Bash, CLI, Things, macOS
recipes.priddle.xyz
I wanted a website for my recipe collection that would also generate PDF files to print on 6x4 inch index cards. I hacked up recipes.priddle.xyz using GitHub Actions to generate a Jekyll site along with PDFs for each recipe.

vim-shellcheck
Vim wrapper for ShellCheck, a
static analysis tool for shell scripts. It adds adds :ShellCheck and
:LShellCheck commands to run ShellCheck on the current buffer (or custom
range/visual selection). Errors are sent to the quickfix/location list
window, and in error windows, gb opens the GitHub wiki page for the error
in a browser.
Tags: Bash, Git, ShellCheck, Vim Plugin

Rainman
Rainman was a RubyGem implementing the abstract factory pattern in Rails applications’ service objects. It was a premature abstraction and development was abandoned when I realized it was adding unnecessary complexity to projects. I consider Rainman a successful failure that was a valuable lesson in knowing when to abstract.

vim-stripper
When I made the switch to Vim, I wanted to strip trailing whitespace when I saved a file. I wrote vim-stripper to do just that.

Tags: Bash, Git, Linux, PHP, Ruby, Vim, macOS
CodeIgniter ActionMailer
I missed ActionMailer from Ruby on Rails and started hacking up something similar for use with CodeIgniter apps. I gave it just enough love to be useful before I decided to use Rails for the app I was planning on using it with.
Tags: CodeIgniter, Email, Git, PHP
josh.fail
My blog is hosted on GitHub Pages and built with Jekyll. I’ve written randomly here under a few different domains over the years. More than once I’ve searched a problem only to find my own blog post about it. These days I write more about management than software.
