feature request: trash-restore accept argument instead of prompt and support specific destination to store
When running trash-restore without argument, which by default show restorable files in list,
and prompt user to select one to restore
$ trash-restore
0 2020-09-28 09:29:57 /tmp/foo.sh
1 2020-09-28 09:49:22 /tmp/bar.sh
2 2020-09-28 09:49:31 /tmp/custom.el
What file to restore [0..2]:
I want to run without interaction,
like when run trash-restore 0, it should output something like:
restore /tmp/foo.sh SUCCESS.
# but if output already exists, exit or prompt to confirm overwrite or force overwrite
$ touch /tmp/foo.sh
$ trash-restore 0
Refusing to overwrite existing file "foo.sh"
ignore me
or maybe specify DEST directory to restore the file, like when specify both number and DEST, it should move the whole path (create its parent directory if NOT exist), like: ``` $ trash-restore 0 /tmp restore /tmp/foo.sh to /tmp/tmp/foo.sh SUCCESS ```
It'd also be nice if trash-restore could accept lines from trash-ls. That would allow doing a simple pipe such as: trash-ls | fzf | trash-restore, which would be a very nice interface to use.
If someone is here from a google search on using trash-restore with fzf, I came up with a (hacky) solution:
alias trash-restore='echo 0 | trash-restore $(trash-list | grep $(pwd) --color=never | sed "s/^[^/]*//" | fzf) > /dev/null'
(Note: this will only list files in the current directory, if you want to list files everywhere remove the grep part)
The number may change between different invocations. I think trash-restore should accept a path argument instead of a number.
I agree.
