Make any Linux shell like home.

Tested on:

• Ubuntu 14.04 Trusty
• Debian 7.7 Wheezy

Luchizz was originally implemented as bash script to modify a Linux installation to be more comfortable and usable with some customization especially for shell usage. With this github repo I'm starting to rewrite the script in python using fabric library in order to deploy remotely (via ssh) commonly used packages and shell improvements.

For a wizard mode just run the command and follow the instructions:

luchizz

Or you can specify an host with:

luchizz -H luca@192.160.0.100

To show available tasks use the fabric command

fab -f tasks.py -l

Shell improvements

• Pag UP/DOWN to search in the command history
• Different prompt colors for normal user and root
• Human readable output for ls, df, free
• Colorized output for ls, grep
• Overwrite protection with --interactive aliases for rm, cp, mv
• Extended command history and more..

Quick packages deployment

Luchizz script has a default packages.yaml with categorized sections for packages to be installed. List of common used packages can be easily extended and customized.

Extra commands

• z jump around shell script
• detectip what's my ip command
• repo from http://source.android.com/source/downloading.html

Apt tuning

• Disable backports repository (normally less stable and reliable)
• Disable automatic installation for recommended and suggested packages

Install ssh keys for authentication

For each .pub key in $HOME/.ssh will be prompted a request to copy the public certificate to the remote system authorized_key.

Message of the day extra informations

Now when you connect over ssh to your system you'll be immediately notified with some useful system informations.

For sure you'll never connect to the wrong machine with the new hostname banner.
