Is this an alternative to ls/exa ?

Absolutely not, rpsc is a tool for the occasional heavylifting and is not as polished and customizable as ls/exa.

Example

$ rpsc /dev --type character -p "^.{6}r-x"  --owner root --time modified --time-style="%Y %d %m %H" -l --match-time="2022 25 11 20"

crw-rw-rw-  1  root  wheel     0  2022 25 11 20  aes_0
crw-------  1  root  wheel     0  2022 25 11 20  afsc_type5
crw-------  1  root  wheel     0  2022 25 11 20  auditpipe
crw-r--r--  1  root  wheel     0  2022 25 11 20  auditsessions
crw-------  1  root  wheel     0  2022 25 11 20  autofs
crw-------  1  root  wheel     0  2022 25 11 20  autofs_control
......

Here I searched for all the character devices in my /dev folder whose permissions matched the '^......r-x' regex that are owned by the root user and that were last modified the 25 november of this year between 20 and 21 hour. Of course this is a very specific example but it was to showcase a few of rpsc's options.

Usage

Run

rpsc --help

to see a list of commands and their usage.

Installation

As of now, building rpsc from source is the only way to install it:

git clone https://github.com/gmnsii/rpsc && cd rpsc && cargo build --release && sudo mv ./target/release/rpsc /usr/local/bin/ && cd .. && rm -rf rpsc

This will clone the repo, build rpsc for release, move it to /usr/local/bin (you will be asked for your password) and delete the cloned repo.

Styling

You can set the colors via the LS_COLORS environment variable, like you would for ls or exa. We won't go into too many details here as there is already documentation on how to use this variable available online.

Align output

Currently the output isn't aligned properly:

$ rpsc
drwxr-xr-x root nobody var
drwx------ root root root
drwxr-xr-x root root home
drwxr-xr-x root root opt
drwxr-xr-x root root srv
drwxr-xr-x nobody root bin

Better output

Since we are working with permissions and ownership, it would be nice to have permissions, owner and (not on macOS) associated group next to the file when outputting, like ls -l. We don't need size and date modified as rpsc is not a replacement for ls or exa.
