Oh My Posh (Configuration)

My Oh My Posh configuration I use on terminals.

Installation

To start, clone the repo

git clone https://github.com/kkaung/oh-my-posh-config

Windows

Install Terminal

winget install Microsoft.WindowsPowershell

Install Powershell (Core)

winget install Microsoft.Powershell

Set Powershell as the default on Terminal

  • Open Terminal
  • Click dropdown chevron
  • Select Settings
  • Select Powershell (not Windows Powershell) as Default Profile
  • Restart Terminal or open new tab

Install Oh My Posh

Open terminal and run

winget install JanDeDobbeleer.OhMyPosh

Install Nerd Fonts

Oh My Posh uses special glyphs that come with certain fonts.

Download and install Caskaydia Cove Nerd Font.

Create/Edit Powershell Profile

To automatically run Oh My Posh with every command, we need to create/edit the profile script. To find out where it lives, type the following in Terminal

$PROFILE

This will give you a path like C:\users\me\Documents\PowerShell\Microsoft.PowerShell_profile.ps1. If this file does not exist, create it in this path.

Then edit the file with the following content and replace C:\my\cloned\path\ with the directory of the cloned repo path.

oh-my-posh --init --shell pwsh --config C:\my\cloned\path\oh-my-posh-config\config.json | Invoke-Expression

Update Font

Go to your Terminal Settings:

  • Click on Powershell under Profiles
  • Go to the Appearance tab and select CaskaydiaCove NF font face
    • You can also make this the default font by going to Defaults under Profiles and setting the font face under the Appearance tab

VS Code

  • Go to Settings
  • Search for font
  • Under Font Family add (in quotes) 'CaskaydiaCove NF'

Example

'CaskaydiaCoveNF', Consolas, 'Courier New', monospace

Install zsh

brew install zsh

To ensure we're using the zsh that we've installed, open Terminal and run

which zsh

Install Oh My Posh

brew tap jandedobbeleer/oh-my-posh
brew install oh-my-posh

Create/Edit .zshrc

To automatically run Oh My Posh with every command, we need to update zsh config. Create/edit ~/.zshrc with the following content and replace ~/my/cloned/repo with the directory of the cloned repo path.

eval "$(oh-my-posh --init --shell zsh --config '~/my/cloned/repo/oh-my-posh-config/config.json')"
