- `relative` and `absolute` paths combination supported

------------

[](#installation)

### Option1: Using Composer

[](#option1-using-composer)

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

```

### Option2: Downloading .phar

[](#option2-downloading-phar)

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

```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

2 possibilities:

- Single symlink:

    ```
     symlinker-pro create:link

    ```
- Multiple symlinks from file:

    ```
     symlinker-pro create:from:file

    ```

### File paths content format

[](#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`
