Sheng-zsh is a oh-my-zsh theme that adds emojis and sheng messages to your zsh terminal.
Sheng will display a good emoji and message such as 👌 Hapo sawa on your prompt whenever commands run smoothly and bad emojis
such as 🙄 Sipendagi ujinga whenever things go wrong.
Introducing Sheng
To set up the theme. Ensure that you have oh-my-zsh installed and setup on your terminal.
Clone the repo or download sheng.zsh-theme file.
$ git clone https://github.com/andela-hmasila/sheng-zsh.git
Copy sheng.zsh-theme to ~/.oh-my-zsh/custom/themes/. This is where your custom themes live.
$ cp /path/to/sheng.zsh-theme ~/.oh-my-zsh/custom/themes/
Change your zsh theme to sheng in your .zshrc file.
$ vim ~/.zshrc
ZSH_THEME='sheng'
Restart your terminal and Voila! Sheng is gauging your inteligence 😂.
Sheng generates random emojis and messages every time you start up your terminal.
To generate a new set of emojis and messages just run badilisha
$ badilisha
You can also run bonga to remind yourself your emoji and messages et.
$ bonga
Sheng is pretty customizable.
If you prefer to have a constant set of emojis just set your goodemoji and bad emoji in .zshrc as follows.
For good emojis, set $POA to one of the following: fire muscle pointright facepunch smile sunglasses and
your bad emoji to one of the following: rollingeyes pouting confused flushed middlefinger worried
$POA='fire'
$MBAYA='rollingeyes'
Then reload your zsh configuration.
$ source ~/.zshrc
You can also add your own emojis to the supported set. Just add the emoji name to one of the arrays; goodemojis or bademojis.
Then add the emoji and message to the respective array with the name as the key and the emoji + message as the value.
Feel free to contribute, even if it's to add an emoji. 😉 Just fork it 🍴 and raise a pull request.
This projects borrows from Austin Kabiru's theme. Not forgetting oh-my-zsh itself. 😄
