Bash prompt with git info

Screenshot

A simple and beautiful bash prompt that also prints command execution time, venv, git, aws, and k8s information.

  • Shows if a git fetch has not been run for 15 minutes with character
  • Summarizes git status with single letters
  • Shows number of ahead / behind commits with remote branch as f.e. ↑1 ↓1
  • Shows the current branch
  • Username included in red if running as root
  • Shows virtual environment name if one is activated
  • Highlights the prompt with a red if the exit status of a command > 0
  • Configurable host nickname, if not set hostname will be shown
  • Can display currently active AWS profile, if $AWS_PROFILE is set and user sets $SHOW_AWS_PROFILE
  • Can display current Kubernetes context and namespace, enable through $SHOW_K8S and $SHOW_K8S_NS.
  • Can display how long it took to run the previous command, enable by setting $SHOW_CMD_TIME.

NOTE: if the K8s context contains / in its title, only the part before / gets displayed.

Install

git clone https://github.com/chkhd/bash-prompt ~/.bash-prompt

echo 'MY_HOST_NICKNAME=whateveryoulike' >> ~/.bashrc
echo 'SHOW_AWS_PROFILE=true' >> ~/.bashrc
echo 'SHOW_K8S=true' >> ~/.bashrc

# This requires coreutils to be properly installed and be on the PATH
# brew install coreutils
echo 'SHOW_CMD_TIME=true' >> ~/.bashrc

# If you want to display the namespace install jq[1]
# brew install jq
# echo 'SHOW_K8S_NS=true' >> ~/.bashrc

echo 'source ~/.bash-prompt/bash-prompt.sh' >> ~/.bashrc

Support

I use this regularly on MacOS and Linux with latest Bash and Git, no plans to support anything ancient but if you run into issues with recent versions please open an issue.
