zed

ZSH Plugin Manager. Yes, yet another one.

Installation

declare -A ZED
ZED[CACHE_DIR]="${HOME}/.cache/zsh/.zed"
ZED[DATA_DIR]="${HOME}/.local/share/zsh/.zed"

if ! test -d "${ZED[DATA_DIR]}/self"; then
  git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/MunifTanjim/zed.git "${ZED[DATA_DIR]}/self"
fi

source "${ZED[DATA_DIR]}/self/zed.zsh"

Usage

You should load the plugins you want after running zed init and before running zed done.

Initialization:

zed init

Normal Plugin:

zed load github.com/momo-lab/auto-expand-alias

zed load github.com/trapd00r/LS_COLORS \
  pick:'lscolors.sh' \
  onpull:'dircolors -b LS_COLORS > lscolors.sh' \
  onload:'zstyle ":completion:*" list-colors "${(s.:.)LS_COLORS}"'

zed load github.com/zpm-zsh/colorize
zed load github.com/zpm-zsh/ls

zed load github.com/zsh-users/zsh-completions
zed load github.com/zsh-users/zsh-autosuggestions
zed load github.com/zsh-users/zsh-syntax-highlighting

Generated Script:

if (( ${+commands[zoxide]} )); then
  zed load github.com/MunifTanjim/null name:'zoxide' \
    onpull:'zoxide init zsh > zoxide.plugin.zsh'
fi

if (( ${+commands[starship]} )); then
  zed load github.com/MunifTanjim/null name:'starship' \
    onpull:'starship init zsh --print-full-init > starship.plugin.zsh'
fi

Local Script:

zed load "${HOME}/.helpers.sh"

Oh My Zsh Plugin:

zed load github.com/ohmyzsh/ohmyzsh dir:'plugins/macos'

Finalization:

zed done

Commands

The main function is named zed.

You don't like that name?!

In case you already have another function with the same name, for example: the zed command line editor, just set the ZED[name] variable to something else before sourcing the zed.zsh file.

ZED[name]=zedi

Then zed will become zedi, and you can do:

zedi load "${HOME}/darkside.sh"

zed init

Initialize

zed load

Load plugin

zed done

Finalize

zed list

List plugin-ids

zed pull [plugin-id]

Pull latest changes for plugins

zed pull-self

Pull latest changes for zed itself
