Solarized dircolors plugin for zsh
Solarized dircolors plugin for zsh.
Note that after installing this plugin, the terminal must be restarted or a new terminal session must be created.
Clone this repository somewhere on your computer. For example:
git clone --recursive https://github.com/joel-porquet/zsh-dircolors-solarized ~/.zsh/zsh-dircolors-solarized
Add the following snippet to your .zshrc
:
source ~/.zsh/zsh-dircolors-solarized/zsh-dircolors-solarized.zsh
I recommend using antigen, but it is also compatible with other plugin managers.
Add the following line in your .zshrc
:
antigen bundle joel-porquet/zsh-dircolors-solarized.git
Clone this repository into $ZSH_CUSTOM/plugins
(by default ~/.oh-my-zsh/custom/plugins
)
git clone --recursive https://github.com/joel-porquet/zsh-dircolors-solarized $ZSH_CUSTOM/plugins/zsh-dircolors-solarized
Add the plugin to the list of plugins for Oh My Zsh to load:
plugins=(zsh-dircolors-solarized)
This plugin offers two commands:
lssolarized
which lists the available solarized themes. For now there are:
dircolors.ansi-universal
(universal theme for 16- and 256-color terminals)dircolors.ansi-dark
(optimized version of universal for dark background)dircolors.ansi-light
(optimized version of universal for light background)dircolors.256dark
(degraded solarized dark theme)setupsolarized
which installs a theme and saves the current configuration to
the configuration file ($HOME/.zsh-dircolors.config
by default). Without any
argument, setupsolarized
will use the theme dircolors.ansi-universal
.
setupsolarized
must be run at least once in order to create the configuration file. After doing so, the plugin will automatically load your configuration each time a zsh session is started.
A required command for this library is dircolors
. This command is not available on OSX. Instead, gdircolors
is provided through Homebrew.
brew install coreutils
.zshrc
anywhere prior to where this plugin is installed.
alias dircolors='gdircolors'
