fish-async-prompt

Make your prompt asynchronous in Fish.

Description

We run your fish_prompt and fish_right_prompt functions as a separate process to update your prompt asynchronously.

Installation

With Fisher:

$ fisher install acomagu/fish-async-prompt

Configurations

If you have problems, try changing the values of these variables. When you changed the configurations, please restart your shell.

async_prompt_inherit_variables

Define variables inherited to prompt functions. Set all to pass all global variables.

Default: status SHLVL CMD_DURATION

Example:

set -U async_prompt_inherit_variables all

async_prompt_functions

Define functions replaced to run asynchronously. Usually one or both of fish_prompt and fish_right_prompt.

Other functions can be specified, but they must be called from fish_prompt or fish_right_prompt and function arguments can't be passed to it.

Default: fish_prompt fish_right_prompt

Example:

set -U async_prompt_functions fish_right_prompt

async_prompt_internal_signal

fish-async-prompt uses SIGUSR1 to communicate with the spawned process by default. If it conflicts with other plugin/program, try changing this.

Default: SIGUSR1

Example:

set -U async_prompt_internal_signal SIGUSR2
