Jump integrates with your shell and learns where you go. It tracks the directories you visit and lets you jump to the right one with just a few fuzzy-typed characters.
Packages are available on the following platforms:
| Platform | Command |
|---|---|
| macOS | brew install jump or port install jump |
| Linux | sudo snap install jump |
| Nix | nix-env -iA nixpkgs.jump |
| Go | go install github.com/gsamokovarov/jump@latest |
Linux distribution packages
| Distribution | Command |
|---|---|
| Arch | sudo yay -S jump |
| Ubuntu / Debian | wget https://github.com/gsamokovarov/jump/releases/download/v0.67.0/jump_0.67.0_amd64.deb && sudo dpkg -i jump_0.67.0_amd64.deb |
| Fedora | wget https://github.com/gsamokovarov/jump/releases/download/v0.67.0/jump-0.67.0-1.x86_64.rpm && sudo rpm -i jump-0.67.0-1.x86_64.rpm |
| Void | xbps-install -S jump |
Jump is used through its helper function – j by default. Add it to your shell:
bash / zsh
eval "$(jump shell)"fish
jump shell fish | source
PowerShell
Invoke-Expression (&jump shell pwsh | Out-String)
Nushell
jump shell nushell | save --append $nu.config-path
Murex
murex-package install https://github.com/lmorg/murex-module-jump.git
Jump begins tracking directories automatically once integrated.
The letter j is the default binding for Jump. But if that's not your jam, you can customize it to your liking.
eval "$(jump shell --bind=z)"
eval "$(jump shell --bind=goto)"Or bind it directly to cd:
eval "$(jump shell --bind=cd)"Typing cd project now performs a fuzzy jump.
j wc # Fuzzy Jump
j web-console # Exact Match
j dev/soc/web # Deep Jump
j ch site # Multi-Part Match
j app/ # Relative Jump
j . # Repo Root
j . cable # Based Mode
j - # cd -
j .. # cd ..
j ../.. # cd ../..
j # Reverse Jump
j Dev # Case-SensitiveThat was a quick overview of how j behaves. The sections below explain each feature with landing paths.
j wc # -> /Users/genadi/Development/rails/web-console
j console # -> /Users/genadi/Development/rails/web-console
j b-c # -> /Users/genadi/Development/rails/web-console
j web-console # -> /Users/genadi/Development/rails/web-console (exact)j ch site # -> /Users/genadi/Development/chaos/website
j dev/soc/web # -> /Users/genadi/Development/society/websiteSpaces and slashes work interchangeably.
j . cable # -> /Users/genadi/Development/rails/rails/actioncable
j . actionview/app # -> /Users/genadi/Development/rails/rails/actionview/app
j . # -> /Users/genadi/Development/rails/railsUseful for monorepos with many repeated directory names.
If your input contains or ends with a slash, Jump checks for a relative directory.
# In /Users/genadi/Development/rails/rails
j actioncable/ # -> ./actioncable
j actionpack/app # -> ./actionpack/appJump also mirrors familiar shell movements:
j - # -> previous directory
j .. # -> parent directory
j ../.. # -> grandparent directoryIf the relative path does not exist, Jump falls back to fuzzy search.
j web # -> /Users/genadi/Development/society/website
j # -> /Users/genadi/Development/chaos/websitej Dev # -> /Users/genadi/Developmentcd /Users/genadi/development/rails
jump pin r
j r # -> /Users/genadi/development/railsList and remove pins:
jump pins
jump unpin rjump clean # remove stale entries
jump forget # forget current directory
jump top # ranked directories
jump top --score # ranked directories with numeric scores
jump top dev # fuzzy filtered listjump import
jump import autojump
jump import zImports merge into your existing database without overwriting scores.
Cause it's good!
