Ahoy! Fisherman 0.3.0
* Fix a critical bug in the Makefile that was
incorrectly merging any existing user configuration
file and the generated Fisherman configuration.
Closes #21.
* Fix a bug in install and uninstall that was adding
plugin names to fishfiles instead of the URL when
interacting with custom URLs. Probably closes #23.
* Fix a bug in install, update and uninstall that
was displaying an incorrect plugin count if there
was at least on failure.
* Fix bug in `fisher install` that causes install
to fail even though it succeeds, due to `wait(1)`'s
behavior of returning `1` if there is any output to
standard error. Closes #20.
* Fix bug in `fisher uninstall` that was removing
plugins from the cache by mistake.
* Add feature to Makefile to download the index for
the first time in order to provide auto-complete
before the user can install/update/search, actions
which would case the index to be updated.
* Add link to Slack [room][wharf] in README. Thanks
@simnalamburt.
* Add new `$fisher_timeout` configuration variable
that lets you specify `curl(1)` `--max-time` option.
Without this, `curl` could hang for a long time if
you are in a bad connection.
* Add `fisher install --link` to allow installing
plugins creating a symbolic link to each of the
relevant files to be copied during the install
process. If you use ***`--link`*** to install a
plugin that is a _path to a directory_ or file, a
symbolic link to the directory will be created making
local testing more convenient as you are not required
to update the plugin's repository to test changes
within Fisherman. If you are testing using
[Fishtape][fishtape] you do not even need to reset
the shell session.
* Add `fisher --alias[=<command>=<alias>]` to simplify
creating new aliases for `fisher` commands. Use
`fisher --alias` without arguments to list the current
set of aliases. Also add auto-complete for aliases
to install, update or uninstall. Note that aliases
are **not** persisted this way. To save your aliases
use `$fisher_alias` as described in `fisher help
config`. Also note that aliases are only auto-complete
if you call `fisher --alias`. To auto-complete aliases
saved to `$fisher_alias` you can do `fisher --alias
(fisher --alias)`.
* Add short options for new and old fisher flags:
* `--file` → `-f` * `--list` → `-l` * `--alias`
→ `-a`
* Improve help message for failed installs. Closes
* Improve `fisher --validate` to automatically correct
common misspellings, for example when installing a
oh-my-fish package, one often types ohmyifsh.
* :point_up: Improve auto-complete performance by
extracting the implementation of the different
`fisher` flags to `__fisher_*` functions.
`completions/fisher.fish` relies heavily in
`fisher_search` to query what plugins are available
to install/update/uninstall. In this process, numerous
calls to `fisher --list` and `fisher --validate`,
etc., are made. Now, auto-complete does not have to
pay the penalty of entering `fisher`, parsing options,
etc. Closes #27. @namandistro
* Improve `fisher --help` output and show up until
now poorly documented ***`--list`***, ***`--file`***,
etc. flags consistently. Also display available
commands after `make install` to improve usability.
* Improve `fisher install` so that it checks whether
the plugin you are trying to install, if it is already
in the cache, is a symbolic link or not, and installs
it as if the `--link` flag was specified.
* Improve `fisher --validate` to retrieve the absolute
path to the closest directory of the given items if
they are valid local paths. Related #19.
* Improve install to not `git clone` local plugins
if a regular `path/to/file` is given to `fisher
install`. Instead, copy to the cache using `cp(1)`
and if `--link` is used, create a symlink.
* Improve `fisher --validate` to invalidate items
with repeated `.` and `-` and allow items that begin
with `/` or `./` to support installing plugins from
local paths. Related #19.
* Modify `fisher update` default behavior. Now this
command updates Fisherman by default. Use of `--self`
and `--me` is also **deprecated**. To read from the
standard input use a dash `-`. For example: `fisher
--list | fisher update -`. Closes #25.
* Rename `--cache` to more descriptive ***`--list`***.
Thanks @colstrom.
* Remove `fisher --cache=base` and make it return
the base names of all directories in the path by
default. To get the full path use printf `printf
"$fisher_cache/%s" (fisher --list)`
* Rename undocumented `fisher --translate` flag
(again) to `fisher --cache`. This function reads the
standard input for a name, URL or local path and
calculates the plugin's path relative to the cache.
For a name this is simple `$fisher_cache/<name>` for
an URL, retrieve the remote URL of every repository
until there is a match with the given URL and return
the path in the cache of that repository. Finally,
if the input is a
* Revert #3. The reason `getopts.fish` was in its
own file originally is because @bucaran wanted a
standalone, dependency free cli parser solution,
arguably slightly faster than having Awk read
`getopts.awk` for each use. The performance improvement
is negligible at best, but `getopts` is also used
by every single command and future commands and
plugins are very likely to use it as well, so we
so we might as well use the slightly faster version.

\fB fisher\- faq\fR \- Frequently Asked Questions
2016-01-01 21:12:40 +00:00
.
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
This document attempts to answer some of Fisherman most frequently asked questions\. Feel free to create a new issue in the Fisherman issue tracker if your question is not answered here\.
.
.SS "What is Fisherman?"
Fisherman v0.2.0
* Improved README, added links to screencasts, updated
documentation with new changes and fixed other typos and
composition errors.
* Removed `fisher update --cache` in favor of
`fisher --cache | fisher update` and
`fisher uninstall --all` in favor of
`fisher --cache | fisher uninstall`.
* Fisherman does not move initialization / configuration
files following the convention `name`.config.fish to
`$fisher_config/functions`, but to `$fisher_config/conf.d`
now and evaluates each `*.config.fish` inside at shell
start as usual. Closes #13.
* Added `fisher --cache[=base]` option to retrieve contents
in `$fisher_cache`, eliminating flaky usage of `find(1)`.
Closes #11.
* Fisherman now generates information about plugins installed
via custom URLs. For the description, a shortened version of
the URL is used. For the URL the full URL is used. For tags,
the URL is fuzzily checked and tags such as _theme_, _plugin_,
_config_ and _omf_ are added. The tag _orphan_ is added by
default as well. Finally, the author is generated by
retrieving the e-mail or username of the author of the
first commit in the plugin's repository. Closes #9 and #14.
* Changed `--path-in-cache` to `--translate.` This function
translates an name or supported URL/URL variation into a path
inside `$fisher_cache`. This allows you to treat plugins
installed via custom URLs almost like regular plugins if they
are installed. Closes #8.
* Fixed a bug with `mktemp` failing on some systems.
Closes #7. Thanks @tobywf.
* Added [CODE_OF_CONDUCT][code_of_conduct]. Closes #6.
* Fisherman can now unload themes within the same shell,
without having to restart the session. Closes #5.
* Fisherman can now load themes within the same shell,
without having to restart the session using `exec fish`.
Shoddy themes, for example those failing to declare global
variables with the `-g` flag still require the session to
be reset. See [**related**][bobthefish-19]. Closes #4.
* Move `getopts` implementation to `share/getopts.awk`.
Closes #3.
* Support dots inside URIs in `fisher --validate`.
Closes #2.

Fisherman is a plugin manager for fish that lets you share and reuse code, prompts and configurations easily\.
2016-01-01 21:12:40 +00:00
.
.SS "What do I need to know to use Fisherman?"
Nothing\. You can continue using your shell as usual\. When you are ready to learn more just type \fB man fisher\fR or \fB man 7 fisher\fR \.
.
.SS "How do I access other Fisherman documentation?"
2016-01-10 07:01:07 +00:00
Fisherman documentation is based in UNIX \fB man(1)\fR pages\. See \fB man fisher\fR and \fB man 7 fisher\fR to get started\. You can also access any documentation using the \fB fisher help\fR command\.
2016-01-01 21:12:40 +00:00
.
.SS "What are Fisherman plugins?"
Plugins are written in fish and extend the shell core functionality, run initialization code, add completions or documentations to other commands, etc\. See \fB fisher help plugins\fR \.
.
.P
Plugins may list any number of dependencies to other plugins using a \fI fishfile\fR \.
.
.SS "What is a Fishfile?"
A plain text file that lists what plugins you have installed or a plugin\' s dependencies to other plugins\.
.
.P
Fishfiles let you share plugin configurations across multiple installations, allow plugins to declare dependencies, and prevent information loss in case of system failure\. See also \fB fisher help fishfile\fR \.
.
.SS "What kind of Fisherman plugins are there?"
There is no technical distinction between plugins, themes, commands, etc\. , but there is a \fI conceptual\fR difference\.
.
.IP "\(bu" 4
\fB Standalone Utilities\fR : Plugins that define one or more functions, meant to be used at the command line\.
.
.IP "\(bu" 4
\fB Prompts / Themes\fR : Plugins that modify the appearance of the fish prompt by defining a \fB fish_prompt\fR and / or \fB fish_right_prompt\fR functions\.
.
.IP "\(bu" 4
\fB Extension Commands\fR : Plugins that extend Fisherman default commands\. An extension plugin must define one or more functions like \fB fisher_<my_command>\fR \. For specific information about commands, see \fB fisher help commands\fR and then return to this guide\.

if a regular `path/to/file` is given to `fisher
install`. Instead, copy to the cache using `cp(1)`
and if `--link` is used, create a symlink.

command updates Fisherman by default. Use of `--self`

Ahoy! Fisherman 0.3.0
* Fix a critical bug in the Makefile that was
incorrectly merging any existing user configuration
file and the generated Fisherman configuration.
Closes #21.
* Fix a bug in install and uninstall that was adding
plugin names to fishfiles instead of the URL when
interacting with custom URLs. Probably closes #23.
* Fix a bug in install, update and uninstall that
was displaying an incorrect plugin count if there
was at least on failure.
* Fix bug in `fisher install` that causes install
to fail even though it succeeds, due to `wait(1)`'s
behavior of returning `1` if there is any output to
standard error. Closes #20.
* Fix bug in `fisher uninstall` that was removing
plugins from the cache by mistake.
* Add feature to Makefile to download the index for
the first time in order to provide auto-complete
before the user can install/update/search, actions
which would case the index to be updated.
* Add link to Slack [room][wharf] in README. Thanks
@simnalamburt.
* Add new `$fisher_timeout` configuration variable
that lets you specify `curl(1)` `--max-time` option.
Without this, `curl` could hang for a long time if
you are in a bad connection.
* Add `fisher install --link` to allow installing
plugins creating a symbolic link to each of the
relevant files to be copied during the install
process. If you use ***`--link`*** to install a
plugin that is a _path to a directory_ or file, a
symbolic link to the directory will be created making
local testing more convenient as you are not required
to update the plugin's repository to test changes
within Fisherman. If you are testing using
[Fishtape][fishtape] you do not even need to reset
the shell session.
* Add `fisher --alias[=<command>=<alias>]` to simplify
creating new aliases for `fisher` commands. Use
`fisher --alias` without arguments to list the current
set of aliases. Also add auto-complete for aliases
to install, update or uninstall. Note that aliases
are **not** persisted this way. To save your aliases
use `$fisher_alias` as described in `fisher help
config`. Also note that aliases are only auto-complete
if you call `fisher --alias`. To auto-complete aliases
saved to `$fisher_alias` you can do `fisher --alias
(fisher --alias)`.
* Add short options for new and old fisher flags:
* `--file` → `-f` * `--list` → `-l` * `--alias`
→ `-a`
* Improve help message for failed installs. Closes
* Improve `fisher --validate` to automatically correct
common misspellings, for example when installing a
oh-my-fish package, one often types ohmyifsh.
* :point_up: Improve auto-complete performance by
extracting the implementation of the different
`fisher` flags to `__fisher_*` functions.
`completions/fisher.fish` relies heavily in
`fisher_search` to query what plugins are available
to install/update/uninstall. In this process, numerous
calls to `fisher --list` and `fisher --validate`,
etc., are made. Now, auto-complete does not have to
pay the penalty of entering `fisher`, parsing options,
etc. Closes #27. @namandistro
* Improve `fisher --help` output and show up until
now poorly documented ***`--list`***, ***`--file`***,
etc. flags consistently. Also display available
commands after `make install` to improve usability.
* Improve `fisher install` so that it checks whether
the plugin you are trying to install, if it is already
in the cache, is a symbolic link or not, and installs
it as if the `--link` flag was specified.
* Improve `fisher --validate` to retrieve the absolute
path to the closest directory of the given items if
they are valid local paths. Related #19.

Fisherman v0.2.0
* Improved README, added links to screencasts, updated
documentation with new changes and fixed other typos and
composition errors.
* Removed `fisher update --cache` in favor of
`fisher --cache | fisher update` and
`fisher uninstall --all` in favor of
`fisher --cache | fisher uninstall`.
* Fisherman does not move initialization / configuration
files following the convention `name`.config.fish to
`$fisher_config/functions`, but to `$fisher_config/conf.d`
now and evaluates each `*.config.fish` inside at shell
start as usual. Closes #13.
* Added `fisher --cache[=base]` option to retrieve contents
in `$fisher_cache`, eliminating flaky usage of `find(1)`.
Closes #11.
* Fisherman now generates information about plugins installed
via custom URLs. For the description, a shortened version of
the URL is used. For the URL the full URL is used. For tags,
the URL is fuzzily checked and tags such as _theme_, _plugin_,
_config_ and _omf_ are added. The tag _orphan_ is added by
default as well. Finally, the author is generated by
retrieving the e-mail or username of the author of the
first commit in the plugin's repository. Closes #9 and #14.
* Changed `--path-in-cache` to `--translate.` This function
translates an name or supported URL/URL variation into a path
inside `$fisher_cache`. This allows you to treat plugins
installed via custom URLs almost like regular plugins if they
are installed. Closes #8.
* Fixed a bug with `mktemp` failing on some systems.
Closes #7. Thanks @tobywf.
* Added [CODE_OF_CONDUCT][code_of_conduct]. Closes #6.
* Fisherman can now unload themes within the same shell,
without having to restart the session. Closes #5.
* Fisherman can now load themes within the same shell,
without having to restart the session using `exec fish`.
Shoddy themes, for example those failing to declare global
variables with the `-g` flag still require the session to
be reset. See [**related**][bobthefish-19]. Closes #4.
* Move `getopts` implementation to `share/getopts.awk`.
Closes #3.
* Support dots inside URIs in `fisher --validate`.
Closes #2.
2016-01-03 03:35:56 +00:00
