Implement a custom prompt, and allow users to modify it #561
Description
@MickMake I can write the script to generate the prompt, but I need to know how to get it to trigger. I am thinking there should be some script users could modify, maybe a simple a .profile in their home directory?
Here is a strawman starting point for discussion. We can brainstorm what else should be included. See the screenshot for what the code that follows produces:
#!/usr/bin/env bash function nox_prompt { local reset='\[\e[00m\]' local bold='\[\e[01m\]' local red='\[\e[31m\]' local green='\[\e[32m\]' local yellow='\[\e[33m\]' local blue='\[\e[34m\]' local purple='\[\e[35m\]' local cyan='\[\e[36m\]' local gray='\[\e[37m\]' local bright='\[\e[39m\]' local bc="${bold}${cyan}" local bg="${bold}${green}" local by="${bold}${yellow}" local br="${bold}${red}" local r="${reset}" local git="" local dir if [ "$PWD" == "/" ]; then dir="/" else dir="\w/" fi if [ -d "$(pwd)/.git" ]; then local branch="$(git branch --no-color | grep "*" | cut -c3-999 2>&1)" local hash="$(git log -1 --oneline --no-color|awk '{print $1}' 2>&1)" local tag="$(git describe --exact-match "${hash}" 2>&1)" if ! [[ "" == "${tag}" || "${tag}" =~ ^fatal ]]; then git="${br}tag${r}=${bg}${tag}${r}" fi if [ "(HEAD detached at" == "${branch:0:17}" ]; then if [ "" != "${git}" ]; then git=", ${git}" fi git="${br}HEAD${reset}=${bg}${branch:18:8}${r} (detached)${git}" elif [ "" != "${branch}" ] ; then git="${git}${br}branch${reset}=${bg}${branch}${r}" else git="" fi local remote="$(git remote 2>&1)" if ! [[ "" == "${remote}" || "${remote}" =~ ^fatal ]]; then if [ "" != "${git}" ]; then git="${git}, " fi git="${git}${br}remote${r}=${bg}${remote}${r}" fi if [ "" != "${git}" ]; then git="${by}GIT:${r} ${git}\n" fi fi dir="${bc}${dir} \n" PS1="\n${git}${dir}${reset}${green}\$${reset} " } PROMPT_COMMAND=box_prompt
