This is fairly subtle. When installable, and we either can't find the version file or it is outdated, we ask the user to confirm installation (just like `--install`). We do that only if we are really truly interactive (with a tty!) to avoid `fish -c` running into problems. This check could be tightened even more, because currently: ```fish fish -ic 'echo foo' ``` asks, while ```fish fish -ic 'echo foo' < /dev/null ``` does not. `fish -c` will still error out if it can't find the config, but it will just run if it is out of date.

Description
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
:command:`fish` is a command-line shell written mainly with interactive use in mind.
|
|
This page briefly describes the options for invoking :command:`fish`.
|
|
The :ref:`full manual <intro>` is available in HTML by using the :command:`help` command from inside fish, and in the `fish-doc(1)` man page.
|
|
The :ref:`tutorial <tutorial>` is available as HTML via ``help tutorial`` or in `man fish-tutorial`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following options are available:
|
|
|
|
**-c** or **--command=COMMAND**
|
|
Evaluate the specified commands instead of reading from the commandline, passing additional positional arguments through ``$argv``.
|
|
|
|
**-C** or **--init-command=COMMANDS**
|
|
Evaluate specified commands after reading the configuration but before executing command specified by **-c** or reading interactive input.
|
|
|
|
**-d** or **--debug=DEBUG_CATEGORIES**
|
|
Enables debug output and specify a pattern for matching debug categories.
|
|
See :ref:`Debugging <debugging-fish>` below for details.
|
|
|
|
**-o** or **--debug-output=DEBUG_FILE**
|
|
Specifies a file path to receive the debug output, including categories and :envvar:`fish_trace`.
|
|
The default is stderr.
|
|
|
|
**-i** or **--interactive**
|
|
The shell is interactive.
|
|
|
|
**--install[=noconfirm]**
|
|
When built as self-installable (via cargo), this will unpack fish's datafiles and place them in ~/.local/share/fish/install/.
|
|
Using ``--install=noconfirm`` will skip the confirmation step.
|
|
Fish will also do this automatically when run interactively.
|
|
|
|
**-l** or **--login**
|
|
Act as if invoked as a login shell.
|
|
|
|
**-N** or **--no-config**
|
|
Do not read configuration files.
|
|
|
|
**-n** or **--no-execute**
|
|
Do not execute any commands, only perform syntax checking.
|
|
|
|
**-p** or **--profile=PROFILE_FILE**
|
|
when :command:`fish` exits, output timing information on all executed commands to the specified file.
|
|
This excludes time spent starting up and reading the configuration.
|
|
|
|
**--profile-startup=PROFILE_FILE**
|
|
Will write timing for ``fish`` startup to specified file.
|
|
|
|
**-P** or **--private**
|
|
Enables :ref:`private mode <private-mode>`: **fish** will not access old or store new history.
|
|
|
|
**--print-rusage-self**
|
|
When :command:`fish` exits, output stats from getrusage.
|
|
|
|
**--print-debug-categories**
|
|
Print all debug categories, and then exit.
|
|
|
|
**-v** or **--version**
|
|
Print version and exit.
|
|
|
|
**-f** or **--features=FEATURES**
|
|
Enables one or more comma-separated :ref:`feature flags <featureflags>`.
|
|
|
|
The ``fish`` exit status is generally the :ref:`exit status of the last foreground command <variables-status>`.

Debugging
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
While fish provides extensive support for :ref:`debugging fish scripts <debugging>`, it is also possible to debug and instrument its internals.
|
|
Debugging can be enabled by passing the **--debug** option.
|
|
For example, the following command turns on debugging for background IO thread events, in addition to the default categories, i.e. *debug*, *error*, *warning*, and *warning-path*:
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
> fish --debug=iothread
|
|
|
|
Available categories are listed by ``fish --print-debug-categories``. The **--debug** option accepts a comma-separated list of categories, and supports glob syntax.
|
|
The following command turns on debugging for *complete*, *history*, *history-file*, and *profile-history*, as well as the default categories:
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
> fish --debug='complete,*history*'
|
|
|
|
Debug messages output to stderr by default. Note that if :envvar:`fish_trace` is set, execution tracing also outputs to stderr by default. You can output to a file using the **--debug-output** option:
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
> fish --debug='complete,*history*' --debug-output=/tmp/fish.log --init-command='set fish_trace on'
|
|
|
|
These options can also be changed via the :envvar:`FISH_DEBUG` and :envvar:`FISH_DEBUG_OUTPUT` variables.
|
|
The categories enabled via **--debug** are *added* to the ones enabled by $FISH_DEBUG, so they can be disabled by prefixing them with **-** (**reader-*,-ast*** enables reader debugging and disables ast debugging).
|
|
|
|
The file given in **--debug-output** takes precedence over the file in :envvar:`FISH_DEBUG_OUTPUT`.
