M.y.t.h.: prompt themes

"Don't pick up hitchhikers!" <D. Adams> (Excerpt from Myth-ion Improbable)

Introduction

This will be a collection of prompt themes, for different prompt tools. Currently, supporting only Starship. You can directly download an individual configuration or clone the whole repository to get all.

The prompts are styled as a single-line prompt, based on the Powerline style. All symbols make use of Nerd Fonts, therefore you need a compatible font to see the symbols. The coloring requires a terminal with support for true color (24-bit). The configuration is tested with the Nerd Font variants of FiraCode, Hack, and Victor (the configuration files include additional symbols if you don't like the defaults).

Starship

The configuration (aka theme) for Starship, covers all modules up to Starship version 1.14.2. There are (currently) two variants: one (general) for shells with right prompt support (cmd, elvish, Fish Shell, nushell, xonsh, zsh), and one for those which don't support it (called left_only).

There are custom modules for username and hostname, as I prefer different visibility in tmux sessions. Otherwise, they function like the standard modules, meaning the username is only shown in a ssh session, or a different user (like root or different from $LOGNAME), and the hostname is only shown in a ssh session. In a (remote) tmux session, the username is only shown if different from the login user, and the hostname is not shown at all. Because, both the username and the hostname are shown in my tmux status line.

The [directory] module uses some substitutions for ~/Documents, ~/Downloads, ~/Music, ~/Movies, ~/Pictures, ~/Sources (check the starship.toml for more information) and also replaces the default path separator (/) with the powerline light right arrow ().

The [shell] module is meant to be only visible, if different from the standard shell. My main shell is the Fish Shell, therefore no additional information is shown. You can change that in the [shell] module section in the starship.toml file.

Currently, the modules, which are enabled, are based on my personal preferences (see the preview section for more information). You can use starship config module_name.disable false or starship config module_name.disable true to change it. If you're wondering what modules are shown and why, you can always use starship explain.

If you don't like the symbols, I've included alternative symbols in the starship.toml. If you would like to have a newline before the prompt, use starship config add_newline true.

The Twoliner variant contains a second configuration for the format and right_format section, where the [directory], [battery] and [time] modules are on the input line. To change it, check the starship.toml file.

Preview

The preview images are made on macOS with iTerm, and a patched Input font (to include Nerd Font support and to add ligatures).

The following modules are shown in the preview and are disabled in the starship.toml configuration files (list is in order of appearance):

  • Memory (seen in the home directory, where the user is root): to enable use starship config memory_usage.disabled false.
  • OS (seen in the home & infra directories): to enable use starship config os.disabled false.
  • Battery (seen in the nothings/gonna/stop/us/now directory): is only shown if less than 20%. If you always want to show it, uncomment the section in the starship.toml file.
  • Time (seen in the nothings/gonna/stop/us/now directory): is only shown between 8 pm and 6 am--to remind you about R&R time 😎 If you always want to see it, comment the time_range line in the starship.toml file out.
  • Status (seen in the starbase directory): to enable use starship config status.disabled false. The [character] module (the green pointed arrow) turns red if the shell exit code is not 0. The [status] module shows additional information.
  • Git Metrics (seen in the elixir and node directories): to enable use starship config git_metrics.disabled false.
  • Shell (seen in the go directory): my default shell is the Fish Shell, therefore only other shells are shown. See the [shell] section in starship.toml for further information and to change or adapt to your liking.
  • Command duration (seen in the python-project directory): to enable use starship config cmd_duration.disabled false.

Remark: the newline in between the prompts is just used for the preview. The configuration itself doesn't use newlines (which can be enabled).

Update history

Version 1.1: 2023-05-14

  • added the Orange variant with a lot less colors. All colors are now based on the type of module: Cloud (Dark blue), Container (Blue), Toolchain (Orange), Package (Grey), Git (Greens), etc.
  • added a Twoline variant, which uses two lines for the prompt as Starship does by default
  • the order of the modules, is now based on the placement in the format section — the Colorful variant still has it ordered alphabetically
  • fixed errors in the Colorful • Slanted configuration files
  • added the name of the variant as a comment in the configuration file

Version 1.0: 2023-05-01

  • renamed Dark to Colorful in preperation for upcoming variations
  • included all modules up to Starship version 1.14.2
  • moved all colors to the [palettes] module
  • updated all symbols to reflect upcoming changes to Nerd Fonts 3.0 (the obsolete Material Design ones)
  • included right prompt support in the general configuration (for cmd, elvish, Fish Shell, nushell, xonsh, zsh)
  • moved the Powerline styling to the [format] module, so they can be easily adapted for left / right side variants or other powerline symbols
  • styled the VI command modes
  • styled the continuation_prompt
  • replaced my custom shell modules with the new standard [shell] module
  • included the shell script for module [custom.giturl]
  • styled the [line_break] module so it can be optionally used

Upcoming

  • light color scheme
  • download link for the config files
