$ aliaz list
gs	git status

$ aliaz edit gs "git status --short"

Shell output

Print definitions or write integration files.

Supported shell values are zsh, bash, and fish. generate prints to stdout; init writes managed files.

Generate

$ aliaz generate zsh
alias gs='git status'

Initialize

$ aliaz init fish
Wrote ~/.config/fish/conf.d/aliaz.fish

For zsh and bash, init also updates the startup file once. The managed integration refreshes aliases after successful add, edit, rm, migrate, import, and sync commands.

Portability

Migrate, export, and import.

Use migration for zsh-style alias files, and JSON import/export when you want a portable file.

portable aliases

$ aliaz migrate --from ~/.zshrc
$ aliaz export --output aliases.json
$ aliaz import aliases.json
