Pure-now

Pretty, minimal and fast ZSH prompt with Zeit's now flavour

Overview

This is a maintened fork of the awesome prompt Pure.
It asynchronously adds current now team/user to the prompt.

Most prompts are cluttered, ugly and slow. I wanted something visually pleasing that stayed out of my way.

Why?

• Comes with the perfect prompt character. Author went through the whole Unicode range to find it.
• Shows git branch and whether it's dirty (with a *).
• Indicates when you have unpushed/unpulled git commits with up/down arrows. (Check is done asynchronously!)
• Prompt character turns red if the last command didn't exit with 0.
• Command execution time will be displayed if it exceeds the set threshold.
• Username and host only displayed when in an SSH session.
• Shows the current path in the title and the current folder & command when a process is running.
• Support VI-mode indication by reverse prompt symbol (Zsh 5.3+).
• Makes an excellent starting point for your own custom prompt.

Install

Can be installed with npm. Requires Git 2.0.0+ and ZSH 5.2+. Older versions of ZSH are known to work, but they are not recommended.

npm

$ npm install --global pure-prompt-now
// or
$ yarn global add pure-prompt-now

That's it.

Getting started

Initialize the prompt system (if not so already) and choose pure-now:

# .zshrc
autoload -U promptinit; promptinit
prompt pure-now

Options

Mostly useful on large repos (like WebKit). | | | PURE_GIT_DELAY_DIRTY_CHECK | Time in seconds to delay git dirty checking when git status takes > 5 seconds. | 1800 seconds | | PURE_PROMPT_SYMBOL | Defines the prompt symbol. | ❯ | | PURE_PROMPT_VICMD_SYMBOL | Defines the prompt symbol used when the vicmd keymap is active (VI-mode). | ❮ | | PURE_GIT_DOWN_ARROW | Defines the git down arrow symbol. | ⇣ | | PURE_GIT_UP_ARROW | Defines the git up arrow symbol. | ⇡ |

Example

# .zshrc

autoload -U promptinit; promptinit

# optionally define some options
PURE_CMD_MAX_EXEC_TIME=10

prompt pure-now

Tips

In the screenshot you see Pure running in Hyper with the hyper-snazzy theme and Menlo font.

The Tomorrow Night Eighties theme with the Droid Sans Mono font (15pt) is also a nice combination. Just make sure you have anti-aliasing enabled in your terminal.

To have commands colorized as seen in the screenshot, install zsh-syntax-highlighting.

Integration

oh-my-zsh

1. Set ZSH_THEME="" in your .zshrc to disable oh-my-zsh themes.
2. Follow the Pure-now Install instructions.

NOTE: oh-my-zsh overrides the prompt so Pure must be activated after source $ZSH/oh-my-zsh.sh.
