Snippets (Automation)

Snippets transform Netcatty from a passive terminal into an active automation platform. They bridge the gap between "typing a command manually" and "writing a full Ansible playbook".

Multi-Line Scripts

Netcatty handles multi-line snippets with ease.

• Sequential Execution: Snippets are sent to the terminal as a sequence of commands, maintaining proper line-ending handling.
• Broadcast Execution: You can run a snippet across all active panes simultaneously using Broadcast Mode.

The Snippet Cookbook

Here are 3 essential snippets to get you started.

1. System Triage

• Description: Instant health check.
• Command:

  echo "=== MEMORY ==="; free -h;
  echo "\n=== DISK ==="; df -h /;
  echo "\n=== LOAD ==="; uptime;

2. Log Tail (Nginx)

• Description: Watch logs with color.
• Command:

  tail -f /var/log/nginx/access.log | grep --color=auto " 500 "

3. Update & Upgrade (Ubuntu)

• Description: Update system (non-interactive).
• Command:

  sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade -y

Sharing & Sync

Snippets are stored as JSON objects in your Vault.

• Export: You can export snippets specifically (without hosts) to share a "Team Toolkit" JSON file.
• Sync: Snippets sync seamlessly via Cloud Sync. Your "Docker Killer" script will be available on your home PC instantly.
