Customization¶

Oh My Zsh¶

Zsh is a terminal built on the same shell as bash and is now the default on Macs.
Oh My Zsh is a framework that wraps around the zsh terminal and allows use of plugins and themes.

Installation¶

To install Oh My Zsh:

sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/ohmyzsh/ohmyzsh/master/tools/install.sh)"

To install Powerlevel10k theme:

git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/romkatv/powerlevel10k.git ${ZSH_CUSTOM:-$HOME/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/themes/powerlevel10k

To install plugins for the terminal:

Auto suggestions

git clone https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-autosuggestions ${ZSH_CUSTOM:-~/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/plugins/zsh-autosuggestions

Auto highlighting commands

git clone https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-syntax-highlighting.git ${ZSH_CUSTOM:-~/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/plugins/zsh-syntax-highlighting

Auto completions

git clone https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-completions ${ZSH_CUSTOM:=~/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/plugins/zsh-completions

P10k fonts¶

Though not necessary, the Powerlevel10k theme has recommended fonts. Install them here.

Updating .zshrc¶

All of the configuration settings for OMZ will be in the ~/.zshrc file.

To update, in the terminal enter:
```
nano ~/.zshrc
```

To change the zsh_theme:

ZSH_THEME="powerlevel10k/powerlevel10k"

Add this into the plugins section:

  plugins=(
          git
          zsh-autosuggestions
          zsh-syntax-highlighting
          zsh-completions
  )

This is added to bash_profile when anaconda is installed.

# >>> conda initialize >>>
# !! Contents within this block are managed by 'conda init' !!
__conda_setup="$('/opt/anaconda3/bin/conda' 'shell.bash' 'hook' 2> /dev/null)"
if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
    eval "$__conda_setup"
else
    if [ -f "/opt/anaconda3/etc/profile.d/conda.sh" ]; then
        . "/opt/anaconda3/etc/profile.d/conda.sh"
    else
        export PATH="/opt/anaconda3/bin:$PATH"
    fi
fi
unset __conda_setup
# <<< conda initialize <<<

Close and re-open Terminal to go through powerlevel10k installation.

To reconfigure the powerlevel10k theme:

p10k configure
