vadviktor / bullettrain-go-core Goto Github PK

Using Linux, ZSH, two line setup.
On command completion the prompt gets temporarily indented.

I switch between bash and mksh on my bsd boxes. It would be nice to have this work in korn shell.

I think it would be nice to offer support for some default color themes. Where a user can specify a theme and have some good-looking colors. Maybe support for solarized and nord out of the box along with any other popular themes out there.

It would be nice if you had glide or something similar setup for development to pull in dependencies. It would make it a lot easier to get a development environment going.

Deciding which cars can be rendered is decided sequentially. Maybe it's slow as globbing of files is involved too. Need to investigate if this process needs speeding up.

Add unit and benchmark tests as a minimum, per car.

When setting BULLETTRAIN_CAR_TIME_SYMBOL_PAINT it also changes the color for BULLETTRAIN_CAR_OS_SYMBOL_PAINT

outpout: user@hostname

Almost every car needs to know about the pwd value. Can it be moved into core and passed onto the cars so they won't need to run it themselves? Some cars may need it multiple times.

How about we create an IRC channel on Freenode so we can talk in real time and work on this? I created #bullettrain if you want to meet me there or just /query gregf and we'll talk.

here we can see a ZSH prompt with

• left and right prompts
• custom coloured separators
• custom coloured car icons
• two line mode with custom chars used on the left to connect them (awesome!)

Prompt is really messed up on master with bash

Add Go Documentation.

https://blog.golang.org/godoc-documenting-go-code

The dir car should have a switch to show only the last bit of the path. For example if the path is /usr/share/apps the dir car should allow to show only apps.

I have merely copied a Code of Conduct documentation which is widely popular in the open source space. Please feel free to have a look at it and suggest modifications, additions, fixes!

code_of_conduct.md

If there are any number of background jobs, display the count number.

The hardest part is, that the current jobs are only visible to the current terminal session, that is the parent process of the new background ones.

Allow the user to customize the separator for the directory car, so each directory can appear as a segment. Possibly enable this by default, I personally think it looks good from a ux stand point.

Right now, my biggest design problem is: how to automate the separator colours at the end of the segments so they are properly coloured. Also how to be able to configure them through env variables, plain strings, whereas they are now types in Go. We'd need a system there that is not complicated. We can change 3rd party colour library or even write our own colouring system.

Any ideas and PRs are welcome.

Find out how to show the segment until their built in triggering effect kicks in.

If the design offers multiple trigger options, implement it that way to be able to choose from triggering effects (only one trigger can be active).

Would be nice if Kubernetes Context car plugin is implemented like it is for the bullet-train.zsh version caiogondim/bullet-train.zsh#257

I would expect that this configuration:

export BULLETTRAIN_CAR_DIRECTORY_MAX_LENGHT='1'
export BULLETTRAIN_CAR_DIRECTORY_DEPTH_INDICATOR=''
export BULLETTRAIN_CAR_DIRECTORY_PATH_SEPARATOR='/'
export BULLETTRAIN_CAR_DIRECTORY_FIRST_DIR_SHOW='false'

when in /usr/share/man/man3 will show only man3.

Right now it is not too clear for me what Go construct to use to keep the defined segments in order, that is capable of reading the ordering also from a list of strings. Like in the original ZSH shell script version:

BULLETTRAIN_PROMPT_ORDER=(
        time
        custom
        context
        dir
        # perl
        ruby
        virtualenv
        # nvm
        # aws
        go
        # elixir
        git
        # hg
        status
        cmd_exec_time
)

We can enable segments and define their order. To avoid the need of recompiling the program all the time the user wants to make a slight change I more than likely see this ENV variable approach useful.

Let's elaborate on how we could solve this problem! :)

Simple question to discuss: under what licence do we create our code?

In both ZSH and BASH sometimes when I'm typing long instructions, the line of text may become invisible for some reason.

As long as you are in a directory under $HOME always print ~ instead of the full path.

Try to figure out how this can be implemented.

The status car should have a switch to show only the status icon but no return code.

For cars like python, nodejs, etc which try to execute a command line call and if the command does not exist, only the car's background is visible.
All these need to have a default text, like [_._._] displayed, or something. When debug mode is on (BULLETTRAIN_DEBUG=true), then kindly put the problem in the text, like command not found.

Hi,

Trying to get version of this built for my freebsd box, using zsh again so want to get back to using this great prompt.

I cloned the repo into my go path and ran dep ensure --update and I get the following error.

Solving failure: No versions of github.com/bullettrain-sh/bullettrain-go-git met constraints:
        v0.7: Could not introduce github.com/bullettrain-sh/[email protected], as it requires package github.com/bullettrain-sh/bullettrain-go-core/pkg/ansi from github.com/bullettrain-sh/bullettrain-go-core, but in version  that package is missing.

The string produced by each car should be defined by some kind of template which would be possible to override via env variable. For example I would like to have each car in the following format:

{space}{icon}{space}{text}{space}

With the current setup, I have to override the icon and the separator env vars to include the spaces.

Using Linux, BASH, single line mode.

The prompt gets displayed in a way that it becomes completely useless. Only occurs when background colours are used, disabling them will make the prompt stable.

Title pretty much says it. When you are in your home directory you should see ~ not /home/user/ as your path.

Implement logic to build right prompt section for ZSH.

Implement a calendar date car. Use optional env var to override date format.

What if we have a list of cars that are used, then a user can add a car they wrote to that list. The car can be potentially any language really but we would, of course, recommend go. These plugins are just binaries of some sort, that print something to stdout.

So this is how it would work. User exports BULLETTRAIN_CARS="time date context my_car"

at runtime, we see my_car we look for it internally if it doesn't exist we run bullettrain_my_car binary (they would have to name their plugin a certain way for it to get executed). This then appends info to the prompt? Is this doable?
