## Installation
|
|
|
|
### Manual
|
|
|
|
1. Clone this repository somewhere on your machine. This guide will assume `~/.zsh/zsh-autosuggestions`.
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
git clone git://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-autosuggestions ~/.zsh/zsh-autosuggestions
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
2. Add the following to your `.zshrc`:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
source ~/.zsh/zsh-autosuggestions/zsh-autosuggestions.zsh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
3. Start a new terminal session.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Oh My Zsh
|
|
|
|
1. Clone this repository into `$ZSH_CUSTOM/plugins` (by default `~/.oh-my-zsh/custom/plugins`)
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
git clone git://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-autosuggestions $ZSH_CUSTOM/plugins/zsh-autosuggestions
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
2. Add the plugin to the list of plugins for Oh My Zsh to load:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
plugins=(zsh-autosuggestions)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
3. Start a new terminal session.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
As you type commands, you will see a completion offered after the cursor in a muted gray color. This color can be changed by setting the `ZSH_AUTOSUGGEST_HIGHLIGHT_STYLE` variable. See [configuration](#configuration).
|
|
|
|
If you press the <kbd>→</kbd> key (`forward-char` widget) or <kbd>End</kbd> (`end-of-line` widget) with the cursor at the end of the buffer, it will accept the suggestion, replacing the contents of the command line buffer with the suggestion.
|
|
|
|
If you invoke the `forward-word` widget, it will partially accept the suggestion up to the point that the cursor moves to.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
You may want to override the default global config variables after sourcing the plugin. Default values of these variables can be found [here](src/config.zsh).
|
|
|
|
**Note:** If you are using Oh My Zsh, you can put this configuration in a file in the `$ZSH_CUSTOM` directory. See their comments on [overriding internals](https://github.com/robbyrussell/oh-my-zsh/wiki/Customization#overriding-internals).
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Suggestion Highlight Style
|
|
|
|
Set `ZSH_AUTOSUGGEST_HIGHLIGHT_STYLE` to configure the style that the suggestion is shown with. The default is `fg=8`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Widget Mapping
|
|
|
|
This plugin works by triggering custom behavior when certain [zle widgets](http://zsh.sourceforge.net/Doc/Release/Zsh-Line-Editor.html#Zle-Widgets) are invoked. You can add and remove widgets from these arrays to change the behavior of this plugin:
|
|
|
|
- `ZSH_AUTOSUGGEST_CLEAR_WIDGETS`: Widgets in this array will clear the suggestion when invoked.
|
|
- `ZSH_AUTOSUGGEST_ACCEPT_WIDGETS`: Widgets in this array will accept the suggestion when invoked.
|
|
- `ZSH_AUTOSUGGEST_EXECUTE_WIDGETS`: Widgets in this array will execute the suggestion when invoked.
|
|
- `ZSH_AUTOSUGGEST_PARTIAL_ACCEPT_WIDGETS`: Widgets in this array will partially accept the suggestion when invoked.
|
|
|
|
Widgets not in any of these lists will update the suggestion when invoked.
|
|
|
|
**Note:** A widget shouldn't belong to more than one of the above arrays.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Key Bindings
|
|
|
|
This plugin provides three widgets that you can use with `bindkey`:
|
|
|
|
1. `autosuggest-accept`: Accepts the current suggestion.
|
|
2. `autosuggest-execute`: Accepts and executes the current suggestion.
|
|
3. `autosuggest-clear`: Clears the current suggestion.
|
|
|
|
For example, this would bind <kbd>ctrl</kbd> + <kbd>space</kbd> to accept the current suggestion.
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
bindkey '^ ' autosuggest-accept
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
