wd
(warp directory) lets you jump to custom directories in zsh, without using cd
.
Why?
Because cd
seems inefficient when the folder is frequently visited or has a long path.
wd
comes bundled with oh-my-zsh!
Just add the plugin in your .zshrc
file:
plugins=(... wd)
In your .zshrc
:
antigen bundle mfaerevaag/wd
In your .zshrc
:
antibody bundle mfaerevaag/wd
Install from the AUR
yay -S zsh-plugin-wd-git
# or use any other AUR helper
Then add to your .zshrc
:
wd() {
. /usr/share/wd/wd.sh
}
Add the following to your home.nix
then run home-manager switch
:
programs.zsh.plugins = [
{
name = "wd";
src = pkgs.fetchFromGitHub {
owner = "mfaerevaag";
repo = "wd";
rev = "v0.5.2";
sha256 = "sha256-4yJ1qhqhNULbQmt6Z9G22gURfDLe30uV1ascbzqgdhg=";
};
}
];
zplug "mfaerevaag/wd", as:command, use:"wd.sh", hook-load:"wd() { . $ZPLUG_REPOS/mfaerevaag/wd/wd.sh }"
Note: automatic install does not provide the manpage. It is also poor security practice to run remote code without first reviewing it, so you ought to look here
Run either command in your terminal:
curl -L https://github.com/mfaerevaag/wd/raw/master/install.sh | sh
or
wget --no-check-certificate https://github.com/mfaerevaag/wd/raw/master/install.sh -O - | sh
Clone this repository on your local machine in a sensible location (if you know what you're doing of course all of this is up to you):
git clone git@github.com:mfaerevaag/wd.git ~/.local/wd --depth 1
Add wd
function to .zshrc
(or .profile
etc.):
wd() {
. ~/.local/wd/wd.sh
}
Install manpage (optional):
Move manpage into an appropriate directory, then trigger mandb
to discover it
sudo install -m 644 ~/.local/wd/wd.1 /usr/share/man/man1/wd.1
sudo mandb /usr/share/man/man1
Note: when pulling and updating wd
, you'll need to repeat step 3 should the manpage change
If you're NOT using oh-my-zsh and you want to utilize the zsh-completion feature, you will also need to add the path to your wd
installation (~/bin/wd
if you used the automatic installer) to your fpath
.
E.g. in your ~/.zshrc
:
fpath=(~/path/to/wd $fpath)
Also, you may have to force a rebuild of zcompdump
by running:
rm -f ~/.zcompdump; compinit
wd
comes with an fzf
-powered browse feature to fuzzy search through all your warp points. It's available through the wd browse
command. For quick access you can set up an alias or keybind in your .zshrc
:
# ctrl-b to open the fzf browser
bindkey ${FZF_WD_BINDKEY:-'^B'} wd_browse_widget
Add warp point to current working directory:
wd add foo
If a warp point with the same name exists, use wd add foo --force
to overwrite it.
Note: a warp point cannot contain colons, or consist of only spaces and dots.
The first will conflict in how wd
stores the warp points, and the second will conflict with other features, as below.
Add warp point to any directory with default name:
wd addcd /foo/ bar
Add warp point to any directory with a custom name:
wd addcd /foo/
You can omit point name to automatically use the current directory's name instead.
From any directory, warp to foo
with:
wd foo
You can also warp to a directory within foo
, with autocompletion:
wd foo some/inner/path
You can warp back to previous directory and higher, with this dot syntax:
wd ..
wd ...
This is a wrapper for the zsh's dirs
function.
You might need to add setopt AUTO_PUSHD
to your .zshrc
if you are not using oh-my-zsh.
Remove warp point:
wd rm foo
You can omit point name to use the current directory's name instead.
List all warp points (stored in ~/.warprc
by default):
wd list
List files in given warp point:
wd ls foo
Show path of given warp point:
wd path foo
List warp points to current directory, or optionally, path to given warp point:
wd show
Remove warp points to non-existent directories.
wd clean
Use wd clean --force
to not be prompted with confirmation.
Print usage info:
wd help
The usage will be printed also if you call wd
with no command
Print the running version of wd
:
wd --version
Specifically set the config file (default being ~/.warprc
), which is useful for testing:
wd --config ./file <command>
Silence all output:
wd --quiet <command>
You can configure wd
with the following environment variables:
WD_CONFIG
Defines the path where warp points get stored. Defaults to $HOME/.warprc
.
wd
comes with a small test suite, run with shunit2. This can be used to confirm that things are working as they should on your setup, or to demonstrate an issue.
To run, simply cd
into the test
directory and run the tests.sh
.
cd ./test
./tests.sh
