### `init` flags ### `init` flags
- `--cmd`: change the `z` command (and corresponding aliases) to something else - `--cmd`: changes the prefix of predefined aliases (`z`, `zi`).
- `--hook <HOOK>`: change the event that adds a new entry to the database - e.g. `--cmd j` would change the aliases to `j` and `ji` respectively.
(default: `pwd`) - `--hook <HOOK>`: change how often zoxide increments a directory's score:
- `none`: never add entries - `none`: never automatically add directories to zoxide.
(this will make `zoxide` useless unless you manually configure a hook) - `prompt`: add the current directory to zoxide at every shell prompt.
- `prompt`: add an entry at every prompt - `pwd`: whenever the user changes directories, add the new directory to zoxide.
- `pwd`: add an entry whenever the current directory is changed - `--no-aliases`: don't define extra aliases (`z`, `zi`).
- `--no-aliases`: don't define extra aliases like `zi`, `zq`, `za`, and `zr` - These functions will still be available in your shell as `__zoxide_z` and `__zoxide_zi`, should you choose to use them elsewhere.
### Environment variables ### Environment variables
- `$_ZO_DATA_DIR`: directory where `zoxide` will store its data files - `_ZO_DATA_DIR`
(default: platform-specific; see the [`dirs` documentation] for more information) - Specifies the directory in which zoxide should store its database.
- `$_ZO_ECHO`: when set to `1`, `z` will print the matched directory before navigating to it - The default value varies across OSes:
- `$_ZO_EXCLUDE_DIRS`: list of directories separated by platform-specific characters | OS | Path | Example |
("`:`" on Linux/macOS, "`;`" on Windows) to be excluded from the database | ----------- | ---------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------ |
- `$_ZO_FZF_OPTS`: custom flags to pass to `fzf` | Linux / BSD | `$XDG_DATA_HOME` or `$HOME/.local/share` | `/home/alice/.local/share` |
- `$_ZO_MAXAGE`: sets the maximum total age after which entries start getting deleted | macOS | `$HOME/Library/Application Support` | `/Users/Alice/Library/Application Support` |
- `$_ZO_RESOLVE_SYMLINKS`: when set to `1`, `z add` will resolve symlinks. | Windows | `{FOLDERID_RoamingAppData}` | `C:\Users\Alice\AppData\Roaming` |
- `_ZO_ECHO`
- When set to `1`, `z` will print the matched directory before navigating to it.
- `_ZO_EXCLUDE_DIRS`
- Excludes the specified directories from the database.
- This is provided as a list of [Unix globs](https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man7/glob.7.html), separated by OS-specific characters:
| OS | Separator | Example |
| ------------------- | --------- | ----------------------- |
| Linux / macOS / BSD | `:` | `$HOME:$HOME/private/*` |
| Windows | `;` | `$HOME;$HOME/private/*` |
- `_ZO_FZF_OPTS`
- Custom options to pass to [fzf](https://github.com/junegunn/fzf). See `man fzf` for the list of options.
- `_ZO_MAXAGE`
- Configures the [aging algorithm](https://github.com/ajeetdsouza/zoxide/wiki/Algorithm#aging), which limits the maximum number of entries in the database.
- By default, this is set to `10000`.
- `_ZO_RESOLVE_SYMLINKS`
- When set to `1`, `z` will resolve symlinks before adding directories to the database.
