This repo include the scripts i use to make yazi even better on Windows
For the Yazi installer, nothing the script should handle everything If you wish to use my settings :
- Pwsh aka Powershell Core or you will need to replace pwsh.exe by powershell.exe on every script
The installation script will cover the installation of the program,
adding it to PATH ( allowing system to use it) and creation of a shortcut to launch it with wezterm,
It can also install git-for-windows from github and make the file util available on path.
It Also prompt to download the preset conf file provide by Yazi
Install scoop recommanded packages
And it Can Install wezterm from winget
_This script doesn't install the recommanded package like fzf zoxide
The icon is created With default wezterm path from winget installation, if you use a portable version adjust it
Open powershell and run: This will prompt you for the installation of all the components
iex (Invoke-WebRequest -Uri 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/PaysanCorrezien/Yazi-Windows/master/Install.ps1' -UseBasicParsing).ContentThis will install everything without prompt
iex ((Invoke-WebRequest -Uri 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/PaysanCorrezien/Yazi-Windows/master/Install.ps1' -UseBasicParsing).Content + ' -Force')** Always check script before running it from a random repo like mine **
This repo include multiple script that offer some functionnality that are realy usefull on windows explorer :
- Open Details tab of a file
- Open powershell in current dir
- Open powershell in current dir as admin ( UAC will prompt ! )
- Drag and drop one or multiple files
- Open explorer in current working directory
And one more that i like a lot and is working perfectly for my use case :
- Open In WSLTmux , which create a session in tmux with the name of file as session name, cd into the directory of the file, and open it in Neovim
This one is working on my
specialuse case but can give you inspiration to make something that feet your need.
Open powershell and clone the repo :
$dirPath = "$env:APPDATA\yazi\WindowsEnhancement"; New-Item -ItemType Directory -Path $dirPath -Force | Out-Null; git clone "https://github.com/PaysanCorrezien/Yazi-Windows.git" $dirPathTo use those function we need to edit the keymap.toml file provided by the preset here
On my keymap.toml on $env:APPDATA\yazi\config\ , on the keymap array at the end i added :
# Open windows Explorer in current working directory ( for features missing in yazi for now)
on = ["g", "e" ], exec = "shell 'explorer .'", desc = "Open Explorer here" },
# Allow to drag one or multiples Files like dragon on linux. To copy in emails for example
# remove --confirm to check the command before running it
{ on = [ "c", "D" ], exec= '''
shell 'pwsh.exe -ex Bypass -C "& $env:APPDATA\yazi\WindowsEnhancement\Drag.ps1 %*"' --confirm
''', desc= "Drag File(s)"},
# Open the windows File explorer property Tab
{ on = [ "c", "P" ], exec= '''
shell 'pwsh.exe -ex Bypass -C "& $env:APPDATA\yazi\WindowsEnhancement\OpenFileDetails.ps1 %1' --confirm
''', desc= "Open File Details"},
# Open Powershell As User
{ on= [ "g", "p" ], exec= '''
shell 'pwsh.exe -ex Bypass -C "& env:APPDATA\yazi\WindowsEnhancement\PowershellSession.ps1 %1 "' --confirm
''', desc= "Open PowerShell Here"},
# Open Powershell As Admin / Will Prompt UAC
# TODO : Open in default terminal not classic powershell
{ on= [ "g", "P" ], exec= '''
shell 'pwsh.exe -ex Bypass -C "& $env:APPDATA\yazi\WindowsEnhancement\PowershellSession.ps1 -Admin %1 "' --confirm
''', desc= "Open PowerShell as Admin" },
# Open in $EDITOR inside TMUX on WSLSIDE
# Create a new tmux session from filename , cd into parent folder, open it in choosen editor
# The script OpenInWslTmux.ps1 need to be edited with name of the app
{ on= [ "g", "T" ], exec= '''
shell 'pwsh.exe -ex Bypass -C "& $env:APPDATA\yazi\WindowsEnhancement\OpenInWSLTmux.ps1 %1"' --confirm
''', desc= "Open File In TMUX EDITOR" },If you are a neovim user like me, you probably want to replace the default opener of the config which is code (VSCODE).
You can change it like this in yazi.toml:
[opener]
edit = [{ exec = '$EDITOR "$@"', block = true, for = "unix" }, { exec = '''
pwsh.exe -NoProfile -Command "nvim %*"
''', block = true, for = "windows" }]On Windows, file association are a mess, settings them system wide automatically is realy hard. To make Yazi open most of the file with Neovim, we can just set most of the files assocations directly in the Yazi config.
This is a WIP list of file association that I added to yazi.toml mostly ai generated.
