@ -1447,6 +1447,29 @@ This behavior can be avoided by explicitly passing arguments to the shell, e.g.

shell = ["pwsh", "-Command", "-"]

```

|

::: warning Make sure your custom shell configuration exits gracefully
|
||||
|
||||
If you set a custom command, make sure that the default Shell used by starship
|
||||
will properly execute the command with a graceful exit (via the `shell`
|
||||
option).
|
||||
|
||||
For example, PowerShell requires the `-Command` parameter to execute a one
|
||||
liner. Omitting this parameter might throw starship into a recursive loop
|
||||
where the shell might try to load a full profile environment with starship
|
||||
itself again and hence re-execute the custom command, getting into a never
|
||||
ending loop.
|
||||
|
||||
Parameters similar to `-NoProfile` in PowerShell are recommended for other
|
||||
shells as well to avoid extra loading time of a custom profile on every
|
||||
starship invocation.
|
||||
|
||||
Automatic detection of shells and proper parameters addition are currently
|
||||
implemented, but it's possible that not all shells are covered.
|
||||
[Please open an issue](https://github.com/starship/starship/issues/new/choose)
|
||||
with shell details and starship configuration if you hit such scenario.
