Installation

Clone from GitHub and source uz.zsh.

git clone https://github.com/maxrodrigo/uz.git ~/.uz

# ~/.zshrc
source ~/.uz/uz.zsh

Usage

Add Plugins

Add plugins' Github repo to .zshrc with zadd. Plugins are automatically installed on load.

zadd zsh-users/zsh-syntax-highlighting
zadd zsh-users/zsh-completions

By default µz sources init.zsh or plugin_name.(zsh|plugin.zsh|zsh-theme|sh) but you can also specify another script to the zadd command as follows:

zadd username/repo script_name

Manage Plugins

• zclean: removes plugins no longer in .zshrc.
• zupdate: update installed plugins.

Installation Path

By default plugins are installed into ~/${UZ_PATH}/plugins. This behavior can be changed re-setting UZ_PLUGIN_PATH.

export UZ_PLUGIN_PATH=${UZ_PATH}/plugins # default

Example

# ~/.zshrc
source ~/.uz/uz.zsh

zadd maxdrorigo/gitster
zadd maxrodrigo/zsh-kubernetes-contexts
zadd zsh-users/zsh-syntax-highlighting
zadd zsh-users/zsh-history-substring-search
zadd zsh-users/zsh-completions

Requirements

• zsh
• git

Uninstall

μz only creates folders for the cloned modules and, by default, are self contained into the installation directory.

To uninstall remove the installation directory ($UZ_PATH) and the modules folder ($UZ_PLUGIN_PATH) if applicable.
