Pure

Pretty, minimal and fast prompt for various shell.

Original design by sindresorhus/pure.

Goal

Support various shells as possible with only one codebase.

❤️ I'm familiar with some of them (bash, zsh, fish) but would love to have help support the other (elvish, ksh, powershell, tcsh, xonsh).

Install

⚠️ Under heavy development, use at your own risk! 💀

requirements: git and pip.

Install required Python modules:

pip install pure colorful gitpython --user

Fish

git clone git@github.com:edouard-lopez/pure-x.git $HOME/.pure
fish $HOME/.pure/install/configure.fish

Zsh

git clone git@github.com:edouard-lopez/pure-x.git $HOME/.pure
zsh $HOME/.pure/install/configure.zsh

Bash

git clone git@github.com:edouard-lopez/pure-x.git $HOME/.pure
bash $HOME/.pure/install/configure.bash

Elvish

Elvish has its own built-in package manager (epm), so you do not need to clone the repository by hand. Instead, from within the Elvish shell, run the following commands:

use epm
epm:install github.com/edouard-lopez/pure-x.git
elvish ~/.elvish/lib/github.com/edouard-lopez/pure-x.git/install/configure.elv 

Note: the last command simply adds the following line to your ~/.elvish/rc.elv file, which you can also add by hand or run interactively to test the prompt:

use github.com/edouard-lopez/pure-x.git/config/prompt

Theme

Set PURE_THEME environment variable and edit your config file (see more about theme configuration).
