I have this function in my zsh configuration :
local kube_prompt()
{
kubectl_current_context=$(kubectl config current-context)
kubectl_cluster=$(echo $kubectl_current_context | cut -d '_' -f 4)
kubectl_prompt="⎈ ($kubectl_cluster)"
echo $kubectl_prompt
}
And I call it by this way :
%{$fg[white]%}$(kube_prompt) \
${git_info} \
It work perfectly (I have my output on my shell prompt) but my problem is,
I want this command to be launch at each shell line (when I press ENTER for example) and not only when I open a new shell.
Any idea how to achieve that ?
Thanks !!!
You can add a delay to the evaluation of the function by adding single quotes around it.
i.e. your PROMPT should be like PROMPT='%{$fg[white]%}$(kube_prompt) ${git_info}'
This will delay updating of the variable long enough so that effect of the command that you run is captured.
This is how I have configured it in my .zshrc:
kube_prompt()
{
kubectl_current_context=$(kubectl config current-context)
kubectl_prompt="( \u2388 $kubectl_current_context )"
echo $kubectl_prompt
}
RPROMPT='%F{81}$(kube_prompt)'And this is how it looks like:
$ kubectl config use-context chip24 ( ⎈ minikube )
Switched to context "chip24".
$ kubectl config use-context hasura ( ⎈ chip24 )
Switched to context "hasura".
$ ( ⎈ hasura )
The unicode character ⎈ adds a nice k8s logo effect to it. :)
