# Oh My Fish!
[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/bpinto/oh-my-fish.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/bpinto/oh-my-fish)
### Why?
Developing on a shell should be a pleasure. Our goal is to help developers that do not want to spend time configuring their own computer to spend time doing what they want.
### How?
With the power of our community, we take the already awesome [fish shell][fish] to another level by creating simple-to-use plugins and themes.
[fish]: http://fishshell.com/
### What?
Oh-my-fish is a user-friendly framework for managing your fish-shell configuration. It includes optional plugins (brew, git, rails, python, node, etc) and themes.
<br>
## Installation
Oh-my-fish is built for recent versions of the fish shell, namely "fish 2.0".
```fish
curl -L https://github.com/bpinto/oh-my-fish/raw/master/tools/install.fish | fish
```
If you want to install it manually, [keep reading](#manual-installation).
## Usage
Enabling a new plugin or theme is as easy as it should be. Open your fish configuration file
`~/.config/fish/config.fish` and specify the theme and the plugins you want to use.
As an example, to enable rails and git plugins add this line `set fish_plugins git rails`
to your configuration file.
## Customization
If you have many functions which go well together, you can create custom plugin in the `custom/plugins/PLUGIN_NAME`
directory and add to it as many functions as you want.
If you would like to override the functionality of a plugin distributed with oh-my-fish,
create a plugin of the same name in the `custom/plugins/` directory and it will be loaded
instead of the one shipped with oh-my-fish.
If you would like to use your custom theme, move it with the same name in the `custom/themes/` directory
and it will override the original theme in `themes/`.
If you just want to override any of the default behavior or add some environment variables,
just add a new file (ending in .load) into the `custom/` directory.
## Send us your theme!
We are hoping to collect a bunch of themes for our command prompts. You can see existing ones in the [themes](themes/) directory.
> __Note__: Theme authors, make sure to include a screenshot in your pull request.
### Manual installation
1. Clone the repository
```fish
git clone git://github.com/bpinto/oh-my-fish.git ~/.oh-my-fish
```
2. Create a new fish config by copying the fish template we've provided.
```fish
cp ~/.oh-my-fish/templates/config.fish ~/.config/fish/config.fish
```
3. Start / restart fish (just open a new terminal)
## Uninstall
rm -rf ~/.oh-my-fish
