Oh My Posh renders your prompt based on the definition of _blocks_ (like Lego) which contain one or more _segments_.
|
|
A really simple configuration could look like this. The default format is `json`, but we also support `toml` and `yaml`.
|
|
There's a [schema][schema] available which is kept up-to-date and helps with autocomplete and validation of the configuration.
|
|
|
|
:::info
|
|
There are a few [themes][themes] available which are basically predefined configs. You can use these as they are, or as a
|
|
starting point to create your own configuration.

With this configuration, a single powerline segment is rendered that shows the name of the folder you're currently in.
|
|
To set this configuration in combination with a Oh My Posh [executable][releases], use the `--config` flag to
|
|
set a path to a file containing the above code. The `--shell universal` flag is used to print the prompt without
|
|
escape characters to see the prompt as it would be shown inside a prompt function for your shell.
|
|
|
|
:::caution
|
|
The command below will not persist the configuration for your shell but print the prompt in your terminal.
|
|
If you want to use your own configuration permanently, adjust the prompt configuration to use your custom
|
|
theme.
|
|
:::
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
oh-my-posh print primary --config sample.json --shell uni
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If all goes according to plan, you should see the prompt being printed out on the line below. In case you see a lot of
|
|
boxes with question marks, set up your terminal to use a [supported font][font] before continuing.
|
|
|
|
:::tip
|
|
The `--config` flag can accept either a local filepath or a remotely hosted config file.
|
|
|
|
For example, the following is a valid `--config` flag:
|
|
`--config 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/JanDeDobbeleer/oh-my-posh/main/themes/jandedobbeleer.omp.json'`

## General Settings
|
|
|
|
| Name | Type | Description |
|
|
| --------------------- | ---------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
|
| `final_space` | `boolean` | when true adds a space at the end of the prompt |
|
|
| `pwd` | `string` | notify terminal of current working directory, values can be `osc99`, `osc7`, or `osc51` depending on your terminal |
|
|
| `terminal_background` | `string` | [color][colors] - terminal background color, set to your terminal's background color when you notice black elements in Windows Terminal or the Visual Studio Code integrated terminal |
|
|
| `accent_color` | `string` | [color][colors] - accent color, used as a fallback when the `accent` [color][accent] is not supported |
|
|
| `var` | `map[string]any` | config variables to use in [templates][templates]. Can be any value |
|
|
| `shell_integration` | `boolean` | enable shell integration using FinalTerm's OSC sequences. Works in bash, cmd (Clink v1.14.25+), fish, powershell and zsh |
|
|
|
|
### JSON Schema Validation
|
|
|
|
As mentioned above, Oh My Posh themes can utilize JSON Schema to validate their contents. Themes should include a link to
|
|
the [external schema document][schema] which prescribes the appropriate structure and contents for various elements. If
|
|
your code editor is configured to use JSON Schema, it will compare your custom theme to the external document, and issue
|
|
warnings for discrepancies.
|
|
|
|
For example, given the following code:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
...
|
|
"segments": [
|
|
{
|
|
"type": "an_invalid_entry",
|
|
"template": "{{ if gt .Code 0 }}\uf134{{ end }}",
|
|
}
|
|
]
|
|
...
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Warnings will be raised for type, since `an_invalid_entry` is not in the list of acceptable values, as well as
|
|
for the entire segment item (enclosed in {}), since it lacks the required `style` key. Take advantage of these
|
|
warnings, and ignore them at your peril.
|
|
|
|
### Accepted Formats
|
|
|
|
Oh My Posh supports three file formats for themes: `json`, `yaml`, and `toml`.
|
|
|
|
Various converters exist to convert between these, although they aren't perfect and will require manual
|
|
adjustment. Notably, the schema implementation for json is as follows:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"$schema": "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/JanDeDobbeleer/oh-my-posh/main/themes/schema.json"
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
While for yaml:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# yaml-language-server: $schema=https://raw.githubusercontent.com/JanDeDobbeleer/oh-my-posh/main/themes/schema.json
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Converters won't catch this change, so you will need to adjust manually.
