## What
Display the current path.
## Sample Configuration
import Config from "@site/src/components/Config.js";
<Config
data={{
type: "path",
style: "powerline",
powerline_symbol: "\uE0B0",
foreground: "#ffffff",
background: "#61AFEF",
properties: {
style: "folder",
mapped_locations: {
"C:\\temp": "\ue799",
},
},
}}
/>
## Properties
| Name | Type | Description |
| --------------------------- | ---------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `folder_separator_icon` | `string` | the symbol to use as a separator between folders - defaults to platform path separator |
| `folder_separator_template` | `string` | the [template][templates] to use as a separator between folders - defaults to `` |
| `home_icon` | `string` | the icon to display when at `$HOME` - defaults to `~` |
| `folder_icon` | `string` | the icon to use as a folder indication - defaults to `..` |
| `windows_registry_icon` | `string` | the icon to display when in the Windows registry - defaults to `\uE0B1` |
| `style` | `enum` | how to display the current path |
| `mixed_threshold` | `number` | the maximum length of a path segment that will be displayed when using `Mixed` - defaults to `4` |
| `max_depth` | `number` | maximum path depth to display before shortening when using `agnoster_short`, defaults to `1` |
| `max_width` | `number` | maximum path length to display when using `powerlevel`, defaults to `0` |
| `hide_root_location` | `boolean` | hides the root location if it doesn't fit in the last `max_depth` folders, when using `agnoster_short` - defaults to `false` |
| `cycle` | `[]string` | a list of color overrides to cycle through to colorize the individual path folders, e.g. `[ "#ffffff,#111111" ]` |
| `cycle_folder_separator` | `boolean` | colorize the `folder_separator_icon` as well when using a cycle - defaults to `false` |
| `folder_format` | `string` | format to use on individual path folders - defaults to `%s` |

## Mapped Locations
Allows you to override a location with an icon/string.
It validates if the current path **starts with the specific elements** and replaces it with the icon/string if there's a match.
To avoid issues with nested overrides, Oh My Posh will sort the list of mapped locations before doing a replacement.
| Name | Type | Description |
| -------------------------- | --------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `mapped_locations_enabled` | `boolean` | replace known locations in the path with the replacements before applying the style - defaults to `true` |
| `mapped_locations` | `object` | custom glyph/text for specific paths. Works regardless of the `mapped_locations_enabled` |
setting.
For example, to swap out `C:\Users\Leet\GitHub` with a GitHub icon, you can do the following:
```json
"mapped_locations": {
"C:\\Users\\Leet\\GitHub": "\uF09B"
}
```
### Notes
- To make mapped locations work cross-platform, use `/` as the path separator, Oh My Posh will
automatically match effective separators based on the running operating system.
- If you want to match all child directories, you can use `*` as a wildcard, for example:
`"C:/Users/Bill/*": "$"` will turn `C:/Users/Bill/Downloads` into `$/Downloads`.
- The character `~` at the start of a mapped location will match the user's home directory.
- The match is case-insensitive on Windows and macOS, but case-sensitive on other operating systems. This means that for
user Bill, who has a user account `Bill` on Windows and `bill` on Linux, `~/Foo` might match
`C:\Users\Bill\Foo` or `C:\Users\Bill\foo` on Windows but only `/home/bill/Foo` on Linux.
## Style
Style sets the way the path is displayed. Based on previous experience and popular themes, there are 10 flavors.
- `agnoster`
- `agnoster_full`
- `agnoster_short`
- `agnoster_left`
- `full`
- `folder`
- `mixed`
- `letter`
- `unique`
- `powerlevel`
### Agnoster
Renders each intermediate folder as the `folder_icon` separated by the `folder_separator_icon`.
The first and the last (current) folder name are always displayed as-is.
### Agnoster Full
Renders each folder name separated by the `folder_separator_icon`.
### Agnoster Short
When more than `max_depth` levels deep, it renders one `folder_icon` (if `hide_root_location` is `false`,
which means the root folder does not count for depth) followed by the names of the last `max_depth` folders,
separated by the `folder_separator_icon`.
### Agnoster Left
Renders each folder as the `folder_icon` separated by the `folder_separator_icon`.
Only the first folder name and its child are displayed in full.
### Full
Display the current working directory as a full string with each folder separated by the `folder_separator_icon`.
### Folder
Display the name of the current folder.
### Mixed
Works like `Agnoster`, but for any intermediate folder name that is short enough, it will be displayed as-is.
The maximum length for the folders to display is governed by the `mixed_threshold` property.
### Letter
Works like `Agnoster Full`, but will write every folder name using the first letter only, except when the folder name
starts with a symbol or icon. Specially, the last (current) folder name is always displayed in full.
- `folder` will be shortened to `f`
- `.config` will be shortened to `.c`
- `__pycache__` will be shortened to `__p`
- `➼ folder` will be shortened to `➼ f`
### Unique
Works like `Letter`, but will make sure every folder name is the shortest unique value.
The uniqueness refers to the displayed path, so `C:\dev\dev\dev\development` will be displayed as
`C\d\de\dev\development` (instead of `C\d\d\d\development` for `Letter`). Uniqueness does **not** refer to other
folders at the same level, so if `C:\projectA\dev` and `C:\projectB\dev` exist, then both will be displayed as
`C\p\dev`.
### Powerlevel
Works like `Unique`, but will stop shortening when `max_width` is reached.
## Template ([info][templates])

```template
{{ .Path }}
