While I may in fact do the same thing I did with my Linux Setup Scripts. The goal for right now is similiar to the origins of that project. A way to setup zsh (Linux in the other case) fast on a fresh setup.
Menus and "Do you want to install A or B?" type things may come later but this is just a fast set of tasks I have tossed together for now .. again like the origins of my Linux Setup Scripts.
- Once downloaded, navigate to the zshSetup folder and type
bash setupZSH.sh
| Task Done | Slim | Medium | NonTheme Complete | Complete |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sets Up Aliases * | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| Sets up zsh history file in ~/.cache/zsh/history | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| Sets up Prompt theme ** | No | Yes | No | Yes |
| Sets up various downloaded zsh plugins | No | No | Yes | Yes |
- "*" a check is ran to only add the aliases if the command is valid for your system... meaning say the "yarn" aliases SHOULDN'T be added if you do not have/use "yarn"
- "**" - Agnoster from OMZ repo or custom theme
| Before/Vanilla zsh | After running (Complete option) Scripts |
|---|---|
 |

ALL CREDIT for the downloaded plugins go to their developer(s).

-
Disabled Plugin
- DirHistory:
- Source: https://github.com/ohmyzsh/ohmyzsh/tree/master/plugins/dirhistory
- Allows you to use Alt+Arrow Keys to navigate between say the PWD and Parent or Child directories
- issue: I find this doesn't work in the terminal "inside of" vscode
- MY COMMENT: There is nothing wrong with this plugin ... I have chosen to disable it since with autocomplete using the same keybindings, this doesn't work if both plugins are added. I am leaving this here since some users who dont want to use auto-complete MAY find this plugin useful.
- DirHistory:
- Enabled by Default
- zsh-autosuggestion: https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-autosuggestions
- zsh-syntax-highlighting: https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-syntax-highlighting
- Not Enabled by Default
- zsh-completions: https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-completions
- zsh-history-substring-search: https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-history-substring-search
- When typing a list of options related to what is typed, is displayed under the current prompt.
- I THINK this is the plugin that caused me to disable Zshuser's Completion and substring search plugins, listed above.
- Colorizes man pages for easier viewing
-
The only theme code I have now is based on (the overall look, maybe not default color scheme) BobTheFish used in the Fish Shell/Fish on Github from OhMyFish
-
I have ideas to allow users to use different colors for different parts of the theme and also possible have it where i can add diffferent themes and most of the code stays the same... that is for down the line though
Projects I either use parts of in this script/find interesting and may use/are just similiar (setting up zsh) somehow
