\section function function - create a function
|
|
|
|
\subsection function-synopsis Synopsis
|
|
<code>function [OPTIONS] NAME; BODY; end </code>
|
|
|
|
\subsection function-description Description
|
|
|
|
- \c -b or \c --key-binding specifies that the function is a key biding. Key binding functions work exactly like regular functions except that they can not be tab-completed.
|
|
- <code>-d DESCRIPTION</code> or \c --description=DESCRIPTION is a description of what the function does, suitable as a completion description
|
|
- <code>-j PID</code> or <code> --on-job-exit PID</code> tells fish to run this function when the job with group id PID exits. Instead of PID, the string 'caller' can be specified. This is only legal when in a command substitution, and will result in the handler being triggered by the exit of the job which created this command substitution.
|
|
- <code>-p PID</code> or <code> --on-process-exit PID</code> tells fish to run this function when the fish child process with process id PID exits
|
|
- <code>-s</code> or <code>--on-signal SIGSPEC</code> tells fish to run this function when the signal SIGSPEC is delivered. SIGSPEC can be a signal number, or the signal name, such as SIGHUP (or just HUP)
|
|
- <code>-v</code> or <code>--on-variable VARIABLE_NAME</code> tells fish to run this function when the variable VARIABLE_NAME changes value
|
|
|
|
This builtin command is used to create a new function. A function is a
|
|
list of commands that will be executed when the name of the function
|
|
is entered. The function
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
function hi
|
|
echo hello
|
|
end
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
will write <code>hello</code> whenever the user enters \c hi.
|
|
|
|
If the user enters any additional arguments after the function, they
|
|
are inserted into the environment <a href="index.html#variables-arrays">variable array</a> argv.
|
|
|
|
\subsection function-example Example
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
function ll
|
|
ls -l $argv
|
|
end
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
will run the \c ls command, using the \c -l option, while passing on any additional files and switches to \c ls.
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
function mkdir -d "Create a directory and set CWD"
|
|
mkdir $argv
|
|
if test $status = 0
|
|
switch $argv[(count $argv)]
|
|
case '-*'
|
|
|
|
case '*'
|
|
cd $argv[(count $argv)]
|
|
return
|
|
end
|
|
end
|
|
end
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
will run the mkdir command, and if it is successful, change the
|
|
current working directory to the one just created.
