Zsh Configuration

Built from makenew.github.io.

Zsh configuration as a zplug plugin.

Description

This configuration system works as a meta-plugin: all desired Zsh plugins are loaded from packages.zsh using zplug. Overall configuration then follows a normal plugin structure.

Display documentation of this Zsh configuration with

man zshrc

Installation

Due to the bootstrapping problem, ZDOTDIR must be set on zsh initialization by adding the line

export ZDOTDIR=$HOME/.config/zsh

to either /etc/zsh/zshenv or ~/.zshenv.

Automatic Install

You can install this via the command-line with either curl

curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jimbrig/zshrc/gh-pages/install.sh | sh

or wget

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jimbrig/zshrc/gh-pages/install.sh -O - | sh

Manual Install

1. Install zplug.

2. Create $ZDOTDIR/.zshrc with

   # jimbrig/zshrc
   export ZSHRC_REPO=jimbrig/zshrc
   
   export ZDOTDIR="${ZDOTDIR:-${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-$HOME/.config}/zsh}"
   export ZPLUG_HOME="${ZPLUG_HOME:-${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-$HOME/.config}/zplug}"
   export ZPLUG_CACHE_DIR="${ZPLUG_CACHE_DIR:-${XDG_CACHE_HOME:-$HOME/.cache}/zplug}"
   
   zplug_loadfile="${ZPLUG_HOME}/repos/jimbrig/zshrc/packages.zsh"
   
   if [[ -e $zplug_loadfile ]]; then
     export ZPLUG_LOADFILE=$zplug_loadfile
   fi
   
   source "${ZPLUG_HOME}/init.zsh"
   
   if [[ ! -e $zplug_loadfile ]]; then
     zplug ${ZSHRC_REPO}
     zplug install
     export ZPLUG_LOADFILE=$zplug_loadfile
     source "${ZPLUG_HOME}/init.zsh"
   fi
   
   zplug ${ZSHRC_REPO}, use:env.zsh
   
   if ! zplug check; then
     zplug install
     echo '[zplug] Updating cache file: this may take up to a minute'
   fi
   
   zplug load

3. Open a new terminal session and wait for the initial install to complete.

Updating

Updating is handled via the normal zplug commands.

The provided shell function zshupg performs a one-step update.

Development and Testing

Source Code

The zshrc source is hosted on GitHub. Clone the project with

$ git clone https://github.com/jimbrig/zshrc.git

Local Development Mode

You can switch to development mode which will configure zplug to use the local directory as the plugin path.

First, follow the normal install steps if you haven't already. Then, switch to development mode with

$ ./install.sh dev

Optionally specify an existing branch to develop with

$ ./install.sh dev dev-branch

Switch out of development mode with

$ ./install.sh

Man Page

The man page is generated from doc/src/man1 using AsciiDoc with

$ a2x -f manpage -D doc/man/man1 doc/src/man1/*
