Linux Simple Commands

A collection of simple Linux commands implemented in Python, providing basic functionalities to perform common file and directory operations through the command line interface.

Description

The Linux Simple Commands project aims to simplify and streamline common tasks performed in a Linux environment. It offers a set of command line options that allow users to interact with files and directories efficiently.

Features

• List of files and directories in a selected path.
• Change the current working directory.
• Create new directories.
• Remove empty directories.
• Delete files.
• Remove directories and their contents recursively.
• Copy files or directories to a specified destination.
• Move files or directories to a specified destination.
• Search for files or directories by name.
• Display the content of a file.
• Find occurrences of a word pattern in a file.
• Search files with a specified word pattern in a directory (including subdirectories).
• Log executed commands and view command history.

Usage

Run the linux_toolkit.py script using Python with the desired arguments:

python linux_toolkit.py --ls 
python linux_toolkit.py --cd "AddressOfDirectory"
python linux_toolkit.py --mkdir "DirectoryName"
python linux_toolkit.py --rmdir "DirectoryName"
python linux_toolkit.py --rm "FileName"
python linux_toolkit.py --rm-r "FolderOrFileName"
python linux_toolkit.py --cat "FileName"
python linux_toolkit.py --cd "AddressOfDirectory" --ls
python linux_toolkit.py --cd "AddressOfDirectory" --mkdir "DirectoryName"
python linux_toolkit.py --cd "AddressOfDirectory" --rmdir "DirectoryName"
python linux_toolkit.py --cd "AddressOfDirectory" --rm "FileName"
python linux_toolkit.py --cd "AddressOfDirectory" --rm-r "FolderOrFileName"
python linux_toolkit.py --cd "AddressOfDirectory" --cat "FileName"
python linux_toolkit.py --cp "Source" "Destination"
python linux_toolkit.py --mv "Source" "Destination"
python linux_toolkit.py --find "Path" "Pattern"
python linux_toolkit.py --word-f "FilePath" "Pattern"
