It suggests commands as you type, based on command history.

|
||||||
## Installation
|
## Installation
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
$ git clone git://github.com/tarruda/zsh-autosuggestions ~/.zsh-autosuggestions
|
If you already use [zsh-syntax-highlighting](https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-syntax-highlighting) plugin, then make sure to be loaded **before** zsh-autosuggestions.
|
||||||
$ bash ~/.zsh-autosuggestions/install
|
|
||||||
|
Note: _.zshrc_ is a file that contains user-specific ZSH configuration.
|
||||||
|
ZSH assumes this file in your home directory (i.e. `~/.zshrc`), but the location can be changed using `ZDOTDIR` variable.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Using zgen
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
[Zgen](https://github.com/tarjoilija/zgen) is a simple and fast plugin manager for ZSH.
|
||||||
|
If you don’t use zgen, then use instructions for the manual installation.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. Load `tarruda/zsh-autosuggestions` and `jimmijj/zsh-syntax-highlighting` using zgen in your .zshrc file, for example:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```sh
|
||||||
|
if ! zgen saved; then
|
||||||
|
echo "Creating a zgen save"
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
zgen load jimmijj/zsh-syntax-highlighting
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# autosuggestions should be loaded last
|
||||||
|
zgen load tarruda/zsh-autosuggestions
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
zgen save
|
||||||
|
fi
|
||||||
```
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If you do not have bash, please run it with sh :
|
2. Enable zsh-autosuggestions; copy the following snippet and put it after the zgen config section in your .zshrc file:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
`
|
```sh
|
||||||
sh ~/.zsh-autosuggestions/install
|
# Enable autosuggestions automatically.
|
||||||
`
|
zle-line-init() {
|
||||||
|
zle autosuggest-start
|
||||||
|
}
|
||||||
|
zle -N zle-line-init
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Any widget that moves the cursor to the right(forward-word, forward-char...)
|
3. Run `zgen reset` and reopen your terminal.
|
||||||
will accept parts of the suggested text. For example, vi-mode users can do
|
|
||||||
this:
|
|
||||||
|
### Manually
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. Clone this repository to `~/.zsh/zsh-autosuggestions` (or anywhere else):
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```sh
|
||||||
|
git clone git://github.com/tarruda/zsh-autosuggestions ~/.zsh/zsh-autosuggestions
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
2. Clone zsh-syntax-highlighting repository to `~/.zsh/zsh-syntax-highlighting` (or anywhere else):
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```sh
|
||||||
|
git clone git://github.com/jimmijj/zsh-syntax-highlighting ~/.zsh/zsh-syntax-highlighting
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
3. Load and enable autosuggestions; copy the following snippet and put it to your .zshrc file:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```sh
|
||||||
|
# Load zsh-syntax-highlighting.
|
||||||
|
source ~/.zsh/zsh-syntax-highlighting/zsh-syntax-highlighting.zsh
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Load zsh-autosuggestions.
|
||||||
|
source ~/.zsh/zsh-autosuggestions/autosuggestions.zsh
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Enable autosuggestions automatically.
|
||||||
|
zle-line-init() {
|
||||||
|
zle autosuggest-start
|
||||||
|
}
|
||||||
|
zle -N zle-line-init
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
4. Reopen your terminal.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Uninstallation
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Just remove the config lines from .zshrc that you’ve added during “installation.”
|
||||||
|
If you don’t use zgen, then also delete `~/.zsh/zsh-autosuggestions` and `~/.zsh/zsh-syntax-highlighting`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## How to use
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
As you type commands, you will see a completion offered after the cursor, in a muted gray color (which can be changed, see [Configuration](#configuration)).
|
||||||
|
To accept the autosuggestion (replacing the command line contents), hit <kbd>End</kbd>, <kbd>Alt+F</kbd>, <kbd>Ctrl+F</kbd>, or any other key that moves the cursor to the right.
|
||||||
|
If the autosuggestion is not what you want, just ignore it: it won’t execute unless you accept it.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Any widget that moves the cursor to the right (forward-word, forward-char, end-of-line…) will accept parts of the suggested text.
|
||||||
|
For example, vi-mode users can do this:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```sh
|
```sh
|
||||||
# Accept suggestions without leaving insert mode
|
# Accept suggestions without leaving insert mode
|
||||||

@ -25,19 +100,37 @@ bindkey '^f' vi-forward-word
|
||||||
bindkey '^f' vi-forward-blank-word
|
bindkey '^f' vi-forward-blank-word
|
||||||
```
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Emacs-mode users can simply use alt+f which is bound to forward-word
|
You can also use right arrow key to accept the suggested text as in Fish shell; see [Configuration](#configuration) section to enable it.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Exposed widgets
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This plugin defines some ZLE widgets (think about them as functions) which you can bind to some key using [bindkey](http://zshwiki.org/home/zle/bindkeys).
|
||||||
|
For example, to toggle autosuggestions using <kbd>Ctrl+T</kbd> add this to your .zshrc:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```sh
|
||||||
|
bindkey '^T' autosuggest-toggle
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
List of widgets:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- `autosuggest-toggle` – disable/enable autosuggestions.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The [zsh-history-substring-search](https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-history-substring-search)
|
|
||||||
plugin is also recommended.
