We just released dpc; its a database for your projects with a nifty shell integration.

Basically, if you do this:

dpc scan ~/projects

... you can then do this:

j my_project_inside_of_a_monorepo

... and end up at:

~/projects/some/really/long/path/my_project_inside_of_a_monorepo

Its an open source project written in rust; it has shell integration with bash, zsh, and fish. There's no upsell here; no cloud service attached, just a thing we made because it seemed helpful.

It categorizes projects by configurable hints: a .git directory, a Cargo.toml, a Gemfile, a package.json, etc. The database stores which one it see also, so you can query it if you'd like.

Take it easy,
