PathMaker 🛠️

A bash utility that installs scripts and tools to your PATH for easy command-line access. Automatically detects script types (Python, Bash, executables), creates wrapper scripts, and configures your shell environment so you can run tools from anywhere without typing full paths.

Installation

git clone https://github.com/yourusername/pathmaker.git
cd pathmaker
chmod +x pathmaker.sh

Usage

Install a tool:

./pathmaker.sh /path/to/script.py commandname

Install ShortEcho example:

./pathmaker.sh ~/tools/shortecho.py shortecho
# Now run: shortecho https://example.com

Install any Python script:

./pathmaker.sh /home/user/scripts/myscan.py myscan
# Now run: myscan --help

Install bash scripts:

./pathmaker.sh /opt/tools/recon.sh recon
# Now run: recon target.com

Options:

<script-path>    Path to the script you want to install
<command-name>   Name of the command to create
-h, --help       Show help message

How It Works

1. Detects script type - Automatically identifies Python, Bash, or executable files
2. Creates wrapper - Generates a wrapper script in ~/.local/bin/
3. Sets permissions - Makes everything executable
4. Configures PATH - Optionally adds ~/.local/bin/ to your shell config
5. Ready to use - Command works globally after sourcing or restarting terminal
