|
A faster way to navigate your filesystem
|
|
|
|
## Introduction
|
|
|
|
`zoxide` is a blazing fast alternative to `cd`, inspired by
|
|
[`z`](https://github.com/rupa/z) and [`z.lua`](https://github.com/skywind3000/z.lua).
|
|
It keeps track of the directories you use most frequently, and uses a ranking algorithm
|
|
to navigate to the best match.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Examples
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
z foo # cd to highest ranked directory matching foo
|
|
z foo bar # cd to highest ranked directory matching foo and bar
|
|
|
|
z foo/ # can also cd into actual directories
|
|
|
|
zi foo # cd with interactive selection using fzf
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Getting started
|
|
|
|
### Step 1: Install zoxide
|
|
|
|
zoxide works across all major platforms. If your distribution isn't included in the list below, you can directly install the binary from GitHub:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ajeetdsouza/zoxide/master/install.sh | sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you would rather not run a script, you can download the binary from the [Releases](https://github.com/ajeetdsouza/zoxide/releases) page and add it anywhere in your `$PATH`.

|
### Step 2: Install fzf (optional)
|
|
|
|
[fzf](https://github.com/junegunn/fzf) is a command-line fuzzy finder, used by
|
|
zoxide for interactive selection. Installation instructions can be found
|
|
[here](https://github.com/junegunn/fzf#installation).
|
|
|
|
### Step 3: Add zoxide to your shell
|
|
|
|
If you currently use `z`, `z.lua`, or `zsh-z`, you may want to first import
|
|
your existing entries into `zoxide`:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
zoxide import --from z /path/to/db
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, for `autojump`:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
zoxide import --from autojump /path/to/db
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### bash
|
|
|
|
Add the following line to your configuration file (usually `~/.bashrc`):
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
eval "$(zoxide init bash)"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### elvish
|
|
|
|
Add the following line to your configuration file (usually `~/.elvish/rc.elv`):
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
eval $(zoxide init elvish | slurp)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### fish
|
|
|
|
Add the following line to your configuration file (usually `~/.config/fish/config.fish`):
|
|
|
|
```fish
|
|
zoxide init fish | source
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### nushell
|
|
|
|
Initialize zoxide's Nushell script:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
zoxide init nushell --hook prompt | save ~/.zoxide.nu
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then, in your Nushell configuration file:
|
|
|
|
- Prepend `__zoxide_hook;` to the `prompt` variable.
|
|
- Add the following lines to the `startup` variable:
|
|
- `zoxide init nushell --hook prompt | save ~/.zoxide.nu`
|
|
- `source ~/.zoxide.nu`
|
|
|
|
#### powershell
|
|
|
|
Add the following line to your profile:
|
|
|
|
```powershell
|
|
Invoke-Expression (& {
|
|
$hook = if ($PSVersionTable.PSVersion.Major -lt 6) { 'prompt' } else { 'pwd' }
|
|
(zoxide init --hook $hook powershell) -join "`n"
|
|
})
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### xonsh
|
|
|
|
Add the following line to your configuration file (usually `~/.xonshrc`):
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
execx($(zoxide init xonsh), 'exec', __xonsh__.ctx, filename='zoxide')
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### zsh
|
|
|
|
Add the following line to your configuration file (usually `~/.zshrc`):
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
eval "$(zoxide init zsh)"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Any POSIX shell
|
|
|
|
Add the following line to your configuration file:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
eval "$(zoxide init posix --hook prompt)"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
### `init` flags
|
|
|
|
- `--cmd`: changes the prefix of predefined aliases (`z`, `zi`).
|
|
- e.g. `--cmd j` would change the aliases to `j` and `ji` respectively.
|
|
- `--hook <HOOK>`: change how often zoxide increments a directory's score:
|
|
- `none`: never automatically add directories to zoxide.
|
|
- `prompt`: add the current directory to zoxide at every shell prompt.
|
|
- `pwd`: whenever the user changes directories, add the new directory to zoxide.
|
|
- `--no-aliases`: don't define extra aliases (`z`, `zi`).
|
|
- These functions will still be available in your shell as `__zoxide_z` and `__zoxide_zi`, should you choose to use them elsewhere.
|
|
|
|
### Environment variables
|
|
|
|
Be sure to set these before calling `zoxide init`.
|
|
|
|
- `_ZO_DATA_DIR`
|
|
- Specifies the directory in which zoxide should store its database.
|
|
- The default value varies across OSes:
|
|
| OS | Path | Example |
|
|
| ----------- | ---------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------ |
|
|
| Linux / BSD | `$XDG_DATA_HOME` or `$HOME/.local/share` | `/home/alice/.local/share` |
|
|
| macOS | `$HOME/Library/Application Support` | `/Users/Alice/Library/Application Support` |
|
|
| Windows | `{FOLDERID_RoamingAppData}` | `C:\Users\Alice\AppData\Roaming` |
|
|
- `_ZO_ECHO`
|
|
- When set to `1`, `z` will print the matched directory before navigating to it.
|
|
- `_ZO_EXCLUDE_DIRS`
|
|
- Excludes the specified directories from the database.
|
|
- This is provided as a list of [Unix globs](https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man7/glob.7.html), separated by OS-specific characters:
|
|
| OS | Separator | Example |
|
|
| ------------------- | --------- | ----------------------- |
|
|
| Linux / macOS / BSD | `:` | `$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.
|
