Whilst a nice feature, firing off a `git fetch` (and so an SSH/http call) after *every* shell interaction is a bit heavy for my liking. This adds the ability to disable it (whilst keeping it enabled by default).
Pure
Pretty, minimal and fast ZSH prompt
Overview
Most prompts are cluttered, ugly and slow. I wanted something visually pleasing that stayed out of my way.
Why?
- Comes with the perfect prompt character. Author went through the whole Unicode range to find it.
- Shows git branch and whether it's dirty using the fastest method available.
- Prompt character turns red if the last command didn't exit with 0.
- Command execution time will be displayed if it exceeds the set threshold.
- Username and host is only displayed when in an SSH session.
- Shows the current path in the title and the current directory and command when a process is running.
- Can easily be used as a starting point for your own custom prompt.
Getting started
-
Clone this repo, add it as a submodule, or just download
pure.zsh. -
Symlink
pure.zshto somewhere in$fpathwith the nameprompt_pure_setup.
Example:
$ ln -s "$PWD/pure.zsh" /usr/local/share/zsh/site-functions/prompt_pure_setup
Run echo $fpath to see possible locations.
- Initialize the prompt system (if not so already):
# .zshrc
autoload -U promptinit && promptinit
- Choose this prompt:
# .zshrc
prompt pure
Options
PURE_CMD_MAX_EXEC_TIME
The max execution time of a process before its run time is shown when it exits. Defaults to 5 seconds.
PURE_GIT_PULL
Set PURE_GIT_PULL=false to prevent Pure from checking whether the current Git remote has been updated.
Example
# .zshrc
autoload -U promptinit && promptinit
# optionally define some options
PURE_CMD_MAX_EXEC_TIME=10
prompt pure
Tip
Tomorrow Night Eighties theme with the Droid Sans Mono font (15pt) is a beautiful combination, as seen in the screenshot above.
