runin

Pick a project directory with fd + fzf and run a command inside it.

---

Usage

Run the default configured command:

runin

Run a custom command instead of the default:

runin nvim .

runin tmux new-session

---

Installation

Install from crates.io:

cargo install runin

---

Configuration

Open interactive configuration:

runin config

If ~/.config/runin/config.toml does not exist, running runin launches the same interactive setup flow automatically.

Interactive flow:

runin config
────────────
Search root [/home/user]:
>
Default command [nvim .]:
>
Include root [n]:
>
saved

If no values change, status prints unchanged.

Config file location:

~/.config/runin/config.toml

Example configuration:

search_root = "/home/user"

default_command = "nvim ."

include_root = false

When include_root = true, the picker includes search_root itself as a selectable entry.

---

How it works

• Uses fd to list directories under search_root

• Pipes results into fzf for interactive selection

• Executes the selected command inside the chosen directory

---

Dependencies

Required tools:

• fd
• fzf

Both must be available in your PATH. If missing, runin prints an install hint.

Running from source

git clone https://github.com/MiguelRegueiro/runin
cd runin
cargo run --release

Philosophy

runin is intentionally simple.

Select directory → run command → done.
