pure-nvm
Pretty, minimal and fast zsh prompt with nvm integration
This is a fork of sindresorhus/pure that supports nvm instead of virtualenv.
The screenshot above shows how this prompt integrates with the lukechilds/zsh-nvm ZSH plugin installed and NVM_AUTO_USE
set to true
.
Overview
- Shows Node version when
nvm
is active - Shows
git
branch and whether it's dirty (with a*
). - Indicates when you have unpushed/unpulled
git
commits with up/down arrows. (Check is done asynchronously!) - Prompt character turns red if the last command didn't exit with
0
. - Command execution time will be displayed if it exceeds the set threshold.
- Username and host only displayed when in an SSH session.
- Shows the current path in the title and the current folder & command when a process is running.
- Support VI-mode indication by reverse prompt symbol (Zsh 5.3+).
- Makes an excellent starting point for your own custom prompt.
Install
Can be installed with npm
or manually. Requires Git 2.0.0+ and ZSH 5.2+. Older versions of ZSH are known to work, but they are not recommended.
npm
$ npm install --global pure-prompt-nvm
That's it. Skip to Getting started.
Manually
- Clone this repo somewhere. Here we'll use
$HOME/.zsh/pure
.
git clone https://github.com/madeleinedaly/pure-nvm.git "$HOME/.zsh/pure"
- Add the path of the cloned repo to
$fpath
in$HOME/.zshrc
.
# .zshrc fpath+=$HOME/.zsh/pure
Getting started
Initialize the prompt system (if not so already) and choose pure
:
# .zshrc autoload -U promptinit; promptinitprompt pure
Options

PURE_CMD_MAX_EXEC_TIME |
The max execution time of a process before its run time is shown when it exits. | 5 seconds |
PURE_GIT_PULL=0 |
Prevents Pure from checking whether the current Git remote has been updated. | |
PURE_GIT_UNTRACKED_DIRTY=0 |
Do not include untracked files in dirtiness check. Mostly useful on large repos (like WebKit). | |
PURE_GIT_DELAY_DIRTY_CHECK |

1800 seconds |

Colors
As explained in ZSH's manual, color values can be:
- A decimal integer corresponding to the color index of your terminal. If your
$TERM
isxterm-256color
, see this chart. - The name of one of the following nine colors:
black
,red
,green
,yellow
,blue
,magenta
,cyan
,white
, anddefault
(the terminal’s default foreground) #
followed by an RGB triplet in hexadecimal format, for example#424242
. Only if your terminal supports 24-bit colors (true color) or when thezsh/nearcolor
module is loaded.
Colors can be changed by using zstyle
with a pattern of the form :prompt:pure:$color_name
and style color
. The color names, their default, and what part they affect are:
execution_time
(yellow) - The execution time of the last command when exceedingPURE_CMD_MAX_EXEC_TIME
.git:arrow
(cyan) - ForPURE_GIT_UP_ARROW
andPURE_GIT_DOWN_ARROW
.git:branch
(242) - The name of the current branch when in a Git repository.git:branch:cached
(red) - The name of the current branch when the data isn't fresh.git:action
(242) - The current action in progress (cherry-pick, rebase, etc.) when in a Git repository.git:dirty
(218) - The asterisk showing the branch is dirty.host
(242) - The hostname when on a remote machine.path
(blue) - The current path, for example,PWD
.prompt:error
(red) - ThePURE_PROMPT_SYMBOL
when the previous command has failed.prompt:success
(magenta) - ThePURE_PROMPT_SYMBOL
when the previous command has succeded.prompt:continuation
(242) - The color for showing the state of the parser in the continuation prompt (PS2). It's the pink part in this screenshot, it appears in the same spot asvirtualenv
. You could for example matching both colors so that Pure has a uniform look.user
(242) - The username when on remote machine.user:root
(default) - The username when the user is root.nvm_version
(242) - The currentnvm
version when not set tosystem
.
The following diagram shows where each color is applied on the prompt:

RGB colors
There are two ways to use RGB colors with the hexadecimal format. The correct way is to use a terminal that support 24-bit colors and enable this feature as explained in the terminal's documentation.
If you can't use such terminal, the module zsh/nearcolor
can be useful. It will map any hexadecimal color to the nearest color in the 88 or 256 color palettes of your termial, but without using the first 16 colors, since their values can be modified by the user. Keep in mind that when using this module you won't be able to display true RGB colors. It only allows you to specify colors in a more convenient way. The following is an example on how to use this module:
# .zshrc zmodload zsh/nearcolorzstyle :prompt:pure:path color '#FF0000'
Example
# .zshrc autoload -U promptinit; promptinit # optionally define some options PURE_CMD_MAX_EXEC_TIME=10 # change the path color zstyle :prompt:pure:path color white # change the color for both `prompt:success` and `prompt:error` zstyle ':prompt:pure:prompt:*' color cyan prompt pure
Tips
In the screenshot you see pure-nvm running in iTerm2 with the dracula theme and Menlo font.
To have commands colorized as seen in the screenshot, install zsh-syntax-highlighting.
Integration
oh-my-zsh
- Set
ZSH_THEME=""
in your.zshrc
to disable oh-my-zsh themes. - Follow the Pure Install instructions.
- Do not enable the following (incompatible) plugins:
vi-mode
,virtualenv
.
NOTE: oh-my-zsh
overrides the prompt so Pure must be activated after source $ZSH/oh-my-zsh.sh
.
prezto
Symlink (or copy) pure.zsh
to ~/.prezto/modules/prompt/functions/prompt_pure_setup
alongside Prezto's other
prompts. Then set zstyle ':prezto:module:prompt' theme 'pure'
in ~/.zpreztorc
.
zim
Add zmodule madeleinedaly/pure-nvm --source async.zsh --source pure.zsh

function.
antigen bundle mafredri/zsh-asyncantigen bundle madeleinedaly/pure-nvm
