So long, old friend!

## PowerShell module
|
|
|
|
In the beginning, all we had was the [PowerShell Module][module]. It's the _origin of Oh My Posh_
|
|
and has remained available ever since, even with the move to Go. With that evolution however,
|
|
its advantages have been greatly reduced. In fact, it even introduced [additional hurdles][hurdles] along
|
|
the way.
|
|
|
|
As of March, the module no longer offers new functionality and displays a warning message. Have a look
|
|
at the [migration page][migration] for a guide on how to migrate from the module to other means of
|
|
installation. It only takes a minute.
|
|
|
|
## Giveaway
|
|
|
|
A fews weeks ago I started a [giveaway][giveaway] to celebrate the 6 year anniversary of Oh My Posh.
|
|
But then I went on holiday, and didn't follow up to announce the winner. So without further ado,
|
|
**congratulations to [@samerde][samerde]** for getting picked by a random online random picker and
|
|
winning the giveaway!
|
|
|
|
## Features
|
|
|
|
It's been a while, so you might want to hang tight 😅
|
|
|
|
### PowerShell UTF-8
|
|
|
|
In the early days, Oh My Posh was forcibly setting PowerShell to UTF-8 due to issues with fonts and paths.
|
|
However, it turned out that wasn't really necessary. A new way of invocation was introduced, which removes
|
|
the need to set this shell wide and **avoids unwanted side effects**. This can however still break path when
|
|
for example your `--config` path contains a non-ascii character. Can't win them all I guess. In that case,
|
|
set the shell to UTF-8 in the scope of initializing Oh My Posh.
|
|
|
|
```powershell
|
|
$previousOutputEncoding = [Console]::OutputEncoding
|
|
[Console]::OutputEncoding = [Text.Encoding]::UTF8
|
|
try {
|
|
oh-my-posh init pwsh --config ~/custom.omp.json | Invoke-Expression
|
|
} finally {
|
|
[Console]::OutputEncoding = $previousOutputEncoding
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Nu shell
|
|
|
|
If you haven't seen [Nu shell][nu] yet, it's a new kid on the block. Oh My Posh now supports it just
|
|
like we support any other popular shell (bash, zsh, fish, etc). This means we can keep adding functionality
|
|
without the need for user interaction apart from updating Oh My Posh.
|
|
|
|
### Accordion
|
|
|
|
Ever wanted to have a `powerline` segment to display collapsed when disabled? Now you can!
|
|
Use the `accordion` style to display a segment in a collapsible state.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Project
|
|
|
|
Things just keep growing. The [project][project] segment now supports the following project definitions:
|
|
|
|
- [cargo][cargo]
|
|
- [poetry][poetry]
|
|
- [php][php]
|
|
- [nuspec][nuspec]
|
|
|
|
### Shell
|
|
|
|
If you work with multiple shell versions, this one's for you. You can now use the `.Version` property
|
|
in the [shell][shell] segment to distinct between versions:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
"template": " in {{ .Name }} {{ .Version }} "
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Git
|
|
|
|
The [git][git] segment learned a new trick to make your life easier (or faster). Before we hardcoded the
|
|
untracked files mode to `normal`. However, on larger repo's this can get rather cumbersome, so we now allow
|
|
you to **override this per repo**.
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
"untracked_modes": {
|
|
"/Users/user/Projects/oh-my-posh/": "no"
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The available options are listed in the [git documentation][git-status], use them as you see fit!
|
|
|
|
### Cross segment template properties
|
|
|
|
Wait, what? Yes, you read that right. Oh My Posh now supports **cross segment template properties**.
|
|
This means you can use one segment's properties in another segment's template. How? Oh My Posh
|
|
exposes the `.Segments` property which contains all segment's properties in a map. To make use
|
|
of another segment's data, use `{{ .Segments.Segment }}` in your template where `.Segment`
|
|
is the name of the segment you want to use with the first letter uppercased.
|
|
|
|
If you want to for example use the [git][git] segment's `.UpstreamGone` property in the [exit][exit] segment, you can
|
|
do so like this:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
"template": " {{ if .Segments.Git.UpstreamGone }}\uf7d3{{ else if gt .Code 0 }}\uf00d{{ else }}\uf00c{{ end }} "
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
:::caution
|
|
For this to work, the segment you refer to needs to be in your config. The above example won't work if
|
|
your config does not contain a git segment as Oh My Posh only populates the properties when it needs to.
|
|

|
|
|
|
### Other
|
|
|
|
- `oh-my-posh debug` now measures the run time correctly and can log startup logic
|
|
- The language segments can now distinct between files and folders
|
|
- The [python][python] segment now supports pyenv `.python-version` files
|
|
- The `init` command has a new switch called `--strict` which no longer resolves the executable
|
|
- The [battery][battery] segment can now display all relevant states on macOS
|
|
- The [dotnet][dotnet] segment now supports `.slnf` files
|
|
- A [new][iterm] segment to display iTerm shell integration prompt marks
|
|
- The [memory][memory] segment can now display available memory
|
|
- The [path][path] segment now has a `.Writable` property, indicating if the current user
|
|
can write to the current folder
|
|
|
|
### Fixes
|
|
|
|
- The [git][git] segment can now handle repo's with `--separate-git-dir`
|
|
- Hyperlinks are correctly measured (which should display the right aligned prompt correctly)
|
|
- Prompt escape sequences are correctly escaped, this avoids unwanted visual side effects
|
|
- Spotify now works correctly on Windows for non-English systems
|
|
- Parallel logic to make things fast no longer randomly crashes on Windows
|
|
- Upstream gone logic for git was broken, and has been fixed
|
|
- PSReadLine in PowerShell now receives the correct amount of prompt lines (`Set-PSReadlineOption -ExtraPromptLineCount`),
|
|
this fixes weird behaviour when using a transient prompt when your config results in a multiline prompt
|
|
- The [winget][winget] installer now adds `PATH` entries correctly, regardless of the installation mode
|
|
|
|
That's it for this time, see you for the next one 🤞🏻
|
|
|
|
Keep that prompt posh everyone!
