Codenav NPM | npm.io

Code Navigation

I wrote this tool to help me structure and work with the various code-bases I contribute to regardless of which organisations they belong to. This is extremely handy for someone involved in open source development.

It brings in the concept of workspaces, and also persists that into a configuration that can be shared across multiple computers. This is amazing as I often work from either my personal or my company’s laptop, and also I like to spoil myself with new laptops every now and then … with this tool I can simply get setup with cnav clone and it gets me all the code !

It supports registering repositories from different source control providers GitHub, Bitbucket (cloud and DC) … with more providers to come … whenever I have to contribute to a repo hosted over there

The main feature I wrote this tool for is the cnav exec command, it lets you run a script across multiple repositories; this is excellent when you’re working on platform/infrastructure, and you’re generally in need to apply updates in bulk.
