Feature request: show modules on the right side of the line as well about powerline-go HOT 4 CLOSED

This is possible, though not efficiently, eg for ZSH, based on the example from the README:

function powerline_precmd() {
    powerline_cmd_result="$?"
    PROMPT="$(~/go/bin/powerline-go -error $powerline_cmd_result -shell zsh -modules 'nix-shell,venv,user,host,ssh,cwd,perms,exit,root')"
    RPROMPT="$(~/go/bin/powerline-go -error $powerline_cmd_result -shell zsh -modules 'git,hg,jobs,vgo')"
}

function install_powerline_precmd() {
  for s in "${precmd_functions[@]}"; do
    if [ "$s" = "powerline_precmd" ]; then
      return
    fi
  done
  precmd_functions+=(powerline_precmd)
}

if [ "$TERM" != "linux" ]; then
    install_powerline_precmd
fi

Just pick whichever modules you want to appear on the left and right for in the PROMPT and RPROMPT lines respectively. Of course this means executing the command twice, but the performance is still not too bad, still faster than the shell/python alternatives in my testing.

Would be nice to have better support for this though, perhaps we could export content to be split or eval'd in the shell or something.

Oh, and if you want your separator arrows pointing in the opposite direction for the right-aligned portion, I submitted #92 to allow drawing reversed separators.

Thank you for the reply!

Then you're out of luck - zsh and fish are the only shells that I'm aware of that support right-aligned prompts.

Fixed thanks to @pdf’s PR
