A cd command that learns your habits
zoxide
is a new cd
alternative inspired by z
and z.lua
. It keeps track of the directories you use most frequently, and uses a ranking algorithm to navigate to the best match.
```sh z foo # cd to top directory matching foo z foo bar # cd to top directory matching foo and bar
z foo/ # can also cd into actual directories
zi foo # cd with interactive selection using fzf
zq foo # echo the best match, don't cd
za /foo # add /foo to the database zr /foo # remove /foo from the database ```
zoxide
If you have Rust, this should be as simple as:
sh
cargo install zoxide
Otherwise, try the install script:
sh
curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ajeetdsouza/zoxide/master/install.sh | sh
If you want the interactive fuzzy selection feature, you will also need to install fzf
.
zoxide
to your shellIf you use a package manager, installation should be as simple as adding ajeetdsouza/zoxide
to your configuration. If you'd rather not use a package manager, simple include the following in your .zshrc
:
```sh zoxideprecmd() { zoxide add }
precmdfunctions+=zoxide_precmd
z() { if [ $# -ne 0 ]; then ZRESULT=$(zoxide query "$@") case $ZRESULT in "query: "*) cd "${ZRESULT:7}" ;; *) echo "${ZRESULT}" ;; esac fi }
alias zi="z -i"
alias za="zoxide add" alias zq="zoxide query" alias zr="zoxide remove" ```
$_ZO_DATA
: sets the location of the database (default: ~/.zo
)$_ZO_MAXAGE
: sets the maximum total rank after which entries start getting deleted
