:::info
|
|
This feature only works in `nu`, `fish`, `zsh`, `powershell` (`ConstrainedLanguage` mode unsupported) and `cmd` for the time being.
|
|
:::
|
|
|
|
Transient prompt, when enabled, replaces the prompt with a simpler one to allow more screen real estate.
|
|
You can use go [text/template][go-text-template] templates extended with [sprig][sprig] to enrich the text.
|
|
All [template][templates] functionality is available, even reusing [cross segment template properties][cstp] from
|
|
the previous primary prompt run.
|
|
|
|
Typically, your prompt will simply leave the prompt on the screen when you execute a command (or press enter) like so:
|
|
|
|
![Before Transient](/img/transient-before.gif)
|
|
|
|
By enabling Transient Prompt, you can replace the prompt with some other content for a cleaner console as shown here:
|
|
|
|
![After Transient](/img/transient-after.gif)
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
You need to extend or create a custom theme with your transient prompt. For example:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"$schema": "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/JanDeDobbeleer/oh-my-posh/main/themes/schema.json",
|
|
"blocks": {
|
|
...
|
|
},
|
|
"transient_prompt": {
|
|
"background": "transparent",
|
|
"foreground": "#ffffff",
|
|
"template": "{{ .Shell }}> "
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Properties
|
|
|
|
| Name | Type | Description |
|
|
| ---------------------- | -------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
|
| `foreground` | `string` | [color][colors] |
|
|
| `foreground_templates` | `array` | [color templates][color-templates] |
|
|
| `background` | `string` | [color][colors] |
|
|
| `background_templates` | `array` | [color templates][color-templates] |
|
|
| `template` | `string` | a go [text/template][go-text-template] template extended with [sprig][sprig] utilizing the properties below - defaults to `{{ .Shell }}> ` |
|
|
| `filler` | `string` | when you want to create a line with a repeated set of characters spanning the width of the terminal. Will be added _after_ the `template` text |
|
|
|
|
## Enable the feature
|
|
|
|
Oh My posh handles enabling the feature automatically for all shells except `cmd` when the config contains a
|
|
transient prompt configuration. For `cmd`, you can run the command below once to enable the feature permanently:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
clink set prompt.transient always
|
|
```
