powerlevel9k Theme for Oh-My-Zsh

This is a theme for Oh-My-Zsh. This theme uses Powerline Fonts, thus giving you the most epic terminal styling in the universe.

Look like a bad-ass. Impress everyone in 'Screenshot Your Desktop' threads. Use powerlevel9k.

In addition to looking amazing, this theme actually provides a lot of useful information.

Features

  • Shows lots of information about Git and Hg repositories, including:
    • branch / tag name
    • current action status (rebasing, merging, etc.,)
    • being behind / ahead of your remote
    • conditionally shows remote tracking branch if it differs from local
    • various local working tree statuses
  • Shows command number in right-prompt (so you can $ !<num> to re-run)
  • Shows return-code of command if it is an error code
  • Shows system time in right-prompt
  • Indicates background jobs with a gear
  • Will conditionally display the user@host string

If you would like an OMZ theme that provides most of the same features but doesn't require Powerline fonts, check out the sister font, hackersaurus.

These screenshots should give you an idea of what powerlevel9k looks like:

Installation

First, you need to install Powerline Fonts. You can find the installation instructions here. You can also find the raw font files in this Github repository if you want to manually install them for your OS.

To install this theme, clone this repository into your Oh-My-Zsh custom/themes directory.

$ cd ~/.oh-my-zsh/custom
$ mkdir themes              # if it doesn't already exist
$ git clone https://github.com/bhilburn/powerlevel9k.git powerlevel9k

You then need to select this theme in your ~/.zshrc:

ZSH_THEME="powerlevel9k/powerlevel9k"

Customization

You can choose which segments are shown on each side. The segments that are currently available are:

  • context - Your username and host.
  • dir - Your current working directory.
  • vcs - Information about this git or hg repository (if you are in one).
  • rbenv - Ruby environment information (if one is active).
  • status - The return code of the previous command, and status of background jobs.
  • history - The command number for the current line.
  • time - System time.

To specify which segments you want, just add the following variables to your ~/.zshrc. If you don't customize this, the below configuration is the default:

POWERLEVEL9K_LEFT_PROMPT_ELEMENTS=(context dir rbenv vcs)
POWERLEVEL9K_RIGHT_PROMPT_ELEMENTS=(status history time)

If you want to show the current changeset in a git or hg repository, enable POWERLEVEL9K_SHOW_CHANGESET in your ~/.zshrc:

POWERLEVEL9K_SHOW_CHANGESET=true

Conditional 'context'

The context segment (user@host string) is conditional. This lets you enable it, but only display it if you are not your normal user or on a remote host (basically, only print it when it likely you need it).

To use this feature, make sure the context segment is enabled in your prompt elements (it is by default), and define a DEFAULT_USER in your ~/.zshrc:

export DEFAULT_USER=<your username>

Prompt on new line

If you like, you can have your prompt on a new line by setting POWERLEVEL9K_PROMPT_ON_NEWLINE to true in your ~/.zshrc.
