Command for creating hard links

[Ape]

Please describe the problem you're trying to solve

I'd like to have a keymappable command for creating a hard link of the yanked file. In case of multiple files or directories, I'd like it to create the directories and hard links for all of them in a tree structure.

Would you be willing to contribute this feature?

• Yes, I'll give it a shot

Describe the solution you'd like

hardlink command would be similar to link.

Nice to have, maybe we can add a --hard to the existing link command, i.e. link --hard.

Anyone want to give it a go? We need to add the hard argument to the link command here:

yazi/yazi-core/src/manager/commands/link.rs

Lines 5 to 8 in 11547ee

	pub struct Opt {
	relative: bool,
	force: bool,
	}

And this should be the only place we need to change in the scheduler:

yazi/yazi-scheduler/src/file/file.rs

Lines 84 to 95 in 11547ee

	#[cfg(unix)]
	{
	fs::symlink(src, &task.to).await?
	}
	#[cfg(windows)]
	{
	if meta.is_dir() {
	fs::symlink_dir(src, &task.to).await?
	} else {
	fs::symlink_file(src, &task.to).await?
	}
	}

I have a work-in-progress patch here: #1268

I still want to add support for directories.

The pull request is now ready for review.

I also added an optional second commit for adjusting the default keymap. This is how I would configure the keys, but I understand that my opinion might differ from other people.

Done in #1268
