bobthefish

bobthefish is a Powerline-style, Git-aware fish theme optimized for awesome.


Installation

Be sure to have Oh My Fish installed. Then just:

omf install bobthefish

You will probably need a Powerline-patched font for this to work. I recommend picking one of these.

This theme is based loosely on agnoster.

Features

• A helpful, but not too distracting, greeting.
• A subtle timestamp hanging out off to the right.
• Powerline-style visual hotness.
• More colors than you know what to do with.
• An abbreviated path which doesn't abbreviate the name of the current project.
• All the things you need to know about Git in a glance.
• Visual indication that you can't write to the current directory.

The Prompt

• Flags:
  • Previous command failed (!)
  • Background jobs (%)
  • You currently have superpowers ($)
• Current vi mode
  • You'll need to set -g theme_display_vi yes to enable
• User@Host (unless you're the default user)
• Current RVM or rbenv (Ruby) version
• Current virtualenv (Python) version
  • If you use virtualenv, you will probably need to disable the default virtualenv prompt, since it doesn't play nice with fish: set -x VIRTUAL_ENV_DISABLE_PROMPT 1
• Abbreviated parent directory
• Current directory, or Git or Mercurial project name
• Current project's repo branch ( master) or detached head (➦ d0dfd9b)
• Git or Mercurial status, via colors and flags:
  • Dirty working directory (*)
  • Untracked files (…)
  • Staged changes (~)
  • Stashed changes ($)
  • Unpulled commits (-)
  • Unpushed commits (+)
  • Unpulled and unpushed commits (±)
  • Note that not all of these have been implemented for hg yet :)
• Abbreviated project-relative path

Configuration

You can override some of the following default options in your config.fish:

set -g theme_display_git no
set -g theme_display_git_untracked no
set -g theme_display_git_ahead_verbose yes
set -g theme_display_hg yes
set -g theme_display_virtualenv no
set -g theme_display_ruby no
set -g theme_display_user yes
set -g theme_display_vi yes
set -g theme_display_vi_hide_mode default
set -g theme_title_display_process yes
set -g theme_title_display_path no
set -g theme_title_use_abbreviated_path no
set -g theme_date_format "+%a %H:%M"
set -g theme_avoid_ambiguous_glyphs yes
set -g default_user your_normal_user

Title options

• theme_title_display_process. By default theme doesn't show current process name in terminal title. If you want to show it, just set to yes.
• theme_title_display_path. Use no to hide current working directory from title.
• theme_title_use_abbreviated_path. Default is yes. This means your home directory will be displayed as ~ and /usr/local as /u/local. Set it to no if you prefer full paths in title.

Prompt options

• theme_display_ruby. Use no to completely hide all information about Ruby version. By default Ruby version displayed if there is the difference from default settings.
