Installation

Option1: Using Composer

composer require "staempfli/symlinker-pro":"~1.0"

Option2: Downloading .phar

wget https://github.com/staempfli/symlinker-pro/releases/download/<version>/symlinker-pro.phar
chmod +x ./symlinker-pro.phar
sudo mv ./symlinker-pro.phar /usr/local/bin/symlinker-pro

Usage

2 possibilities:

  • Single symlink:

     symlinker-pro create:link <source_path> <destination_path>
    
  • Multiple symlinks from file:

     symlinker-pro create:from:file <file_path>
    

File paths content format

A symlink definition per line with => symbol to separate source_path and destination_path:

source_path=>destination_path
source_path2=>destination_path2
source_path3=>destination_path3

If your destination paths should be calculated from a different path than the current root, you can use --dest-prefix-path option when running create:from:file
