## Advanced ## Advanced
Oh My Fish installer places its startup code in your fish config file (`~/.config/fish/config.fish`). Oh My Fish installer adds a snippet to fish's user config files (`~/.config/fish/conf.d/`) which calls OMF's startup code.
Notice that the scripts in that directory are sourced in the order that the filesystem sees them,
and so it may be necessary to prefix your script files with ordering numbers.
For example: `a_script.fish` will take precedence over the `omf.fish` snippet.
So if `a_script.fish` depends on plugins managed by OMF, consider renaming the script file to `xx_a_script.fish`.
Similiarly, to make sure that a script runs before `omf.fish`, you may prefix it with `00_`.
Alternatively, `~/.config/omf/before.init.fish` may be used.
### Startup ### Startup
Every time you open a new shell, the startup code initializes Oh My Fish installation path and the _config_ path (`~/.config/omf` by default), sourcing the [`init.fish`](init.fish) script afterwards, which autoloads packages, themes and your custom init files.

candidate for being added to your dotfiles and/or checked out to version control. There are four important files: candidate for being added to your dotfiles and/or checked out to version control. There you can find three important files:
- __`theme`__ - The current theme - __`theme`__ - The current theme
- __`bundle`__ - List of currently installed packages/themes - __`bundle`__ - List of currently installed packages/themes
- __`channel`__ - The channel from which OMF gets updates (stable / dev)
And you may create and customize these special files:
- __`init.fish`__ - Custom script sourced after shell start - __`init.fish`__ - Custom script sourced after shell start
- __`before.init.fish`__ - Custom script sourced before shell start - __`before.init.fish`__ - Custom script sourced before shell start
- __`key_bindings.fish`__ - Custom key bindings where you can use the `bind` command freely - __`key_bindings.fish`__ - Custom key bindings where you can use the `bind` command freely
It's highly recommended that your custom startup commands go into `init.fish` file instead of `~/.config/fish/config.fish`, as this allows you to keep the whole `$OMF_CONFIG` directory under version control.
If you need startup commands to be run *before* Oh My Fish begins loading plugins, place them in `before.init.fish` instead. If you're unsure, it is usually best to put things in `init.fish`.
#### Setting variables in `init.fish` #### Setting variables in `init.fish`
One of the most common startup commands used in `init.fish` is variables definition. Quite likely, such variables need to be available in any shell session. To achieve this, define them globally.

Every time a package/theme is installed or removed, the `bundle` file is updated. You can also edit it manually and run `omf install` afterwards to satisfy the changes. Please note that while packages/themes added to the bundle get automatically installed, a package/theme removed from bundle isn't removed from user installation.

#### Older fish versions
In fish 2.2, there is no `conf.d` directory, so the startup code has to be placed in the fish config file (`~/.config/fish/config.fish`).
