Font Installation Notes

The most important part of zshbop is the powerlevel10k prompt, which requires a specific font. With Powerline10k you need patched font files. The patch font files are "MesloLGS NF" and are located on the following Github repository.

• https://github.com/romkatv/powerlevel10k/blob/master/font.md

Automatic Font Install

As per the font.md file above.

Automatic font installation If you are using iTerm2 or Termux, p10k configure can install the recommended font for you. Simply answer Yes when asked whether to install Meslo Nerd Font.

Manual Font Install

macOS

cp fonts/* ~/Library/fonts

Windows

N/A

Windows Terminal

Then use the windows_terminal.json in this repository.

WSL Script Install - Broken

There is an issue with some of the Powerline fonts I downloaded and installed in windows. So I opted for this set of fonts using a script in a GIST https://gist.github.com/romkatv/aa7a70fe656d8b655e3c324eb10f6a8b

You can simply run this command within WSL

bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://gist.githubusercontent.com/romkatv/aa7a70fe656d8b655e3c324eb10f6a8b/raw/install_meslo_wsl.sh)"

Configuration and Customization

You can create a custom configuration file to override zshbop settings and variables. This is useful if you want to use a different plugin manager or override zshbop settings.

Using zshbop Configuration File

Copy .zshbop.config.example to $HOME/.zshbop.config and modify as needed.

Configuration Options

Variable	Description	Values	Default
ZSHBOP_ROOT	Location of zshbop installation	String	Detected
ZSHBOP_CUSTOM_SSHKEY	Set a custom SSH key to be loaded	String	Detected
ZSHBOP_PLUGIN_MANAGER	Override plugin manager, can be init_antidote or init_anitgen	String	init_antidote
ZSHBOP_GIT_CHECK	zshbop git check on logout, this will run and will $GIT_HOME for any repositories that have uncommited code.	Number	1
GIT_HOME	A location where you have all your git repositories.	String	$HOME/git
ZSHBOP_UPDATE_GIT	Git Repositores to update when running zshbop update	Array	${HOME}/git/cloudflare-cli ${GIT_HOME}/plik

Exbin

• Exbin https://exbin.call-cc.be

Variable	Description	Values	Default
EXBIN_TYPE	Choose either netcat or api for exbin posting.	String	netcat
EXBIN_HOST	Exbin host, for netcat just the hostname and for api the full URL.	String	exbin.call-cc.be
EXBIN_PORT	If you don't use the standard 9999 port for exbin.	Number	9999

Custom Startup Scripts

You can create a custom startup script to run when zshbop starts. This is useful if you want to run a script that's not included in zshbop.

Uncomment the following in $HOME/.zshbop.config

function init_custom_startup () {

}

Installation Notes

Operating System Installation Notes

macOS Installation Notes

Nothing at this time!

Windows Installation Notes

Windows Terminal

Windows Terminal is a means to manage the various terminals installed in Windows.

• WSL
• Command Prompt
• Powershell
• Custom Powershell (Azure + Exchange)

WSL Subsystem

You'll need the WSL Subsystem installed.

• Open PowerShell as Administrator and run

Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName Microsoft-Windows-Subsystem-Linux

WSL 1 vs WSL 2

Open a command prompt on Windows 10 and run the following command to confirm what version of WSL you're running.

wsl --list --verbose

Upgrade WSL 1 to WSL 2

I used this guide https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/164301-how-update-wsl-wsl-2-windows-10-a.html

1. Upgrade WSL via elevated PowerShell dism.exe /online /enable-feature /featurename:Microsoft-Windows-Subsystem-Linux /all /norestart
2. Install VMP via elevated PowerShell. The following enables the Virtual Machine Platform. This is important for WSL 2 for some reason. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/faq#does-wsl-2-use-hyper-v--will-it-be-available-on-windows-10-home- dism.exe /online /enable-feature /featurename:VirtualMachinePlatform /all /norestart
3. Restart your Computer
4. Set WSL to version 2 wsl --set-default-version 2
5. Convert your existing linux distro from WSL 1 to 2 wsl --set-version <distro_name> 2 Note: If you have an error converting your distro, look at this thread microsoft/WSL#4929

VcXsrv (WSL Gui)

If you want to run Xserver for a GUI under WSL, this guide will help.

ZSH Installation Issues

CentOS 7 + zsh 5.1.1

sudo yum update -y
sudo yum install -y git make ncurses-devel gcc autoconf man yodl
git clone -b zsh-5.7.1 https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh.git /tmp/zsh
cd /tmp/zsh
./Util/preconfig
./configure
sudo make -j 20 install

Issues

All issues are makred with @@ISSUE and need to be addressed.

ToDo

• Place all included files into directory inc
• Check for ssh-key id_rsa if chmod 600 and if not ask to do it.
• If any packages aren't installed ask to install them.
• Flight check command to confirm what's setup and isn't, check packacges installed.
• Borrow or steal https://github.com/ohmyzsh/ohmyzsh/blob/master/tools/upgrade.sh
• Install jq and md5sum via brew for macos
• Figure out FZF wget https://github.com/junegunn/fzf-bin/releases/download/0.17.4/fzf-0.17.4-linux_amd64.tgz
• Look into diff so fancy wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/so-fancy/diff-so-fancy/master/third_party/build_fatpack/diff-so-fancy
• Add https://github.com/skx/sysadmin-util.git
• Devise method to override antidote and antigen plugins.
• Look into these plugins

antigen bundle wfxr/forgit
antigen bundle djui/alias-tips
antigen bundle desyncr/auto-ls
antigen bundle MikeDacre/careful_rm
antigen bundle viasite-ansible/zsh-ansible-server
