# RShell
|
|
Rust Shell. This is an attempt to create a simple shell in Rust, because why not.
|
|
|
|
My starting point is [this article](https://www.joshmcguigan.com/blog/build-your-own-shell-rust/) which is excellent. I will start with the final form of a shell given in the article and try to reformat it:
|
|
* Make it more easy to extend
|
|
* Make it a lib
|
|
|
|
I can also add basic features:
|
|
* History
|
|
* customizable prompt
|
|
* Colours ?
|
|
|
|
Later, I can even make something useful out of it. For example, I could make it so that it is configurable via a config file. I could make it the default terminal via ssh for some user and make it so the terminal opens directly in a docker container, or chrooted or smthing, as a basic form of honeypot.

# Done
|
|
|
|
* A basic history system. Writes to ~/history.rshell
|
|
* Tests for this history system
|
|
* Added the !<number> function
|
|
|
|
# Todo
|
|
* Add a function that gets the path of the history file, rather than copying it every time
|
|
* Other tests for the rest of the features
|
|
* Add a builtin history command
|
|
* Add a test for the treat_history_callback function
|
|
* Get some sleep
|
|
* Order the file (modules...)
