    Pure

    Pure

    Pretty, minimal and fast ZSH prompt

    Most prompts are cluttered, ugly and slow. We wanted something visually pleasing that stayed out of our way. Comes with the perfect prompt character. Author went through the whole Unicode range to find it. Shows git branch and whether it's dirty (with a *). Indicates when you have unpushed/unpulled git commits with up/down arrows. (Check is done asynchronously!). Prompt character turns red if the last command didn't exit with 0. Command execution time will be displayed if it exceeds the set threshold. Username and host only displayed when in an SSH session or a container. Shows the current path in the title and the current folder & command when a process is running. Support VI-mode indication by reverse prompt symbol (Zsh 5.3+). Makes an excellent starting point for your own custom prompt.

    Distrobox

    Distrobox

    Use any linux distribution inside your terminal

    Use any Linux distribution inside your terminal. Enable both backward and forward compatibility with software and freedom to use whatever distribution you’re more comfortable with. Distrobox uses podman, docker or lilipod to create containers using the Linux distribution of your choice. The created container will be tightly integrated with the host, allowing sharing of the HOME directory of the user, external storage, external USB devices and graphical apps (X11/Wayland), and audio. Simply put it's a fancy wrapper around podman, docker, or lilipod to create and start containers highly integrated with the hosts. The distrobox environment is based on an OCI image. This image is used to create a container that seamlessly integrates with the rest of the operating system by providing access to the user's home directory, the Wayland and X11 sockets, networking, removable devices (like USB sticks), systemd journal, SSH agent, D-Bus, ulimits, /dev and the udev database, etc.

    bash-completion

    bash-completion

    Programmable completion functions for bash

    bash-completion is a collection of command-line command completions for the Bash shell, a collection of helper functions to assist in creating new completions, and a set of facilities for loading completions automatically on-demand, as well as installing them. The easiest way to install this software is to use a package; refer to Repology for a comprehensive list of operating system distributions, package names, and available versions. Depending on the package, you may still need to source it from either /etc/bashrc or ~/.bashrc (or any other file sourcing those). If you don't have the package readily available for your distribution, or you simply don't want to use one, you can install bash-completion using the standard commands for GNU Autotools packages. If you find that a given function is producing errors or does not work as it should under certain circumstances when you attempt completion, try running set -x or set -v prior to attempting the completion again.

    Kubernetes prompt info for bash and zsh

Blue was used for the default symbol to match the Kubernetes color as closely as possible. Red was chosen as the context name to stand out, and cyan for the namespace. 256 colors are available by specifying the numerical value as the variable argument. Due to the vast ways of customizing the shell, please try the prompt with a minimal configuration before submitting a bug report.
