Show HN: Kmdr.sh, CLI tool for explaining commands from your terminal
github.comSure I'll put in my command into a tool that doesn't make it clear that it's using an api to do what it does. Why can't this all be done locally and the options found through manpages?
Noted. We have to add more details as to why kmdr cli today doesn't pull from your system.
The biggest obstacle for doing that is parsing manpages. Kmdr uses explainshell.com's parser for extracting options from manpages, but the parser fails to detect many options and subcommands' options. Kmdr's repository of definitions extends past man page parsing thanks to human verification and additions that help us to explain commands with subcommands, e.g. docker, kubectl, docker, git, npm, yarn, pip, etc..
Hi, you can check the demo website at https://kmdr.sh with no installation required.
