How to enable color when using the function pet-select ZSH function?

[progS1m]

I've tried to add --color option to the pet-select ZSH function but it does change nothing and the color do not appear.
Tried two variants (.zshr) :

...
function pet-select() {
--
130 | BUFFER=$(pet search --color --query "$LBUFFER")
...

or

...
function pet-select() {
--
130 | BUFFER=$(pet search --query "$LBUFFER" --color)
...

Using the pet search --color brings the colorized version.

I see the same thing in bash. Running pet search --color displays coloured output, but $(pet search --color) does not.

Hmm not sure how to test this one. If I run pet without any configuration (fresh build, nothing in my environment) I get colors in both bash and zsh, but not the colors I would get if I ran pet search --color.

This is indeed strange

Would appreciate help looking into this 😁

It seems as if the ZSH shell 'theme' is not there when executing the command in $(...)

Hi RamiAwar , any solution to this , its very hard to read or navigate snippets when running pet-select()

[RamiAwar]

I think this depends a lot on your terminal and is very hard to debug user to user. For me for example it just works on all my machines on bash & zsh. Haven't tested on windows though.

What shell & OS are you using? @viprob-ai

[viprob-ai]

For me it's not working in bash shell

Shell: bash
OS : Ubuntu 22.04

I have put the pet-select in bashrc

Can you post the contents of your bash profile maybe?

I'll see if copying them then helps me replicate
