tmux Configuration

My complete tmux configuration as a tmux plugin. For an empty starting config that follows the same organization, switch to the minimal branch.

Note that versioned released are cut from the minimal branch, and changes between those releases are documented in the CHANGELOG. The master branch represents my current tmux environment, and is intended to remain unversioned.

Description

This configuration system works as a meta-plugin: all desired tmux plugins are loaded from plugins.conf using Tmux Plugin Manager. Overall configuration then follows a normal plugin structure.

Installation

You must be in a tmux session to install.

Automatic Install

You can install this via the command-line with either curl

$ curl -L rc.evansosenko.com/tmuxrc/install.sh | sh

or wget

$ wget rc.evansosenko.com/tmuxrc/install.sh -O - | sh

Manual Install

1. Install Tmux Plugin Manager.
2. Create ~/.config/tmux/tmux.conf with

# rxrc/tmuxrc

if-shell "test -f $HOME/.config/tmux/plugins/tmuxrc/plugins.conf" "source $HOME/.config/tmux/plugins/tmuxrc/plugins.conf"
if-shell "test ! -f $HOME/.config/tmux/plugins/tmuxrc/plugins.conf" "set -g @tpm_plugins 'tmux-plugins/tpm rxrc/tmuxrc'"
run-shell '$HOME/.config/tmux/plugins/tpm/tpm'

3. Install with

$ ~/.config/tmux/plugins/tpm/bin/install_plugins
$ ~/.config/tmux/plugins/tpm/bin/install_plugins

Updating

Updating is handled via the normal Tmux Plugin Manager install and update commands.

Alternatively, you can run the commands listed in the Manual Install section.

tmuxline.vim

If found, this configuration will load ~/.config/tmux/tmuxline.zsh which can be generated or updated using tmuxline.vim by running :TmuxlineSnapshot! ~/.config/tmux/tmuxline.conf from Vim inside a tmux session.

Customization

Note that any additional .tmux configuration files added to this plugin must have the execute bit set to load.

You can customize this configuration or manage your own in the same way.

1. Clone or fork this. If you prefer a clean start, clone the minimal branch: it has the same structure and development tools but with a very minimal configuration. Tagged releases are based on that branch.
2. Replace any instance of rxrc/tmuxrc with the path to your repository's location. If you do not host this on GitHub, you may need to adjust the repository path appropriately.
3. Customize package.json.
4. Update install.sh on the gh-pages branch.
5. Update the urls for the install script in this README.

Here is an example of a command you can use to make replacements:

$ git ls-files -z | xargs -0 sed -i 's/rxrc\/tmuxrc/username\/tmuxrc/g'

Development

You can use Gulp to switch to development mode which will install the local development files to the plugin path.

First, follow the normal install steps if you haven't already. Then, install the development dependences via npm with

$ npm install

While in a tmux session, enter development mode with

$ npm start

Switch out of development mode with

$ npm stop
