github-issues

Loads the zdharma-continuum/zsh-github-issues plugin, which subscribes to GitHub repositories and displays new-issue notifications under the shell prompt using zinit’s notify ice.

Terminal window
zi pack for github-issues
zi pack"compact-message" for github-issues

Available profiles: default, compact-message.

  • Provides: in-prompt GitHub issue notifications via the notify ice; requires github-issues-srv (the companion service package) to be loaded for data collection.
  • default profile ices: git, lucid, on-update-of"~/.cache/zsh-github-issues/new_titles.log", notify"New issue: $NOTIFY_MESSAGE", atpull"%atclone".
  • compact-message profile: identical ices but notify value is just "$NOTIFY_MESSAGE" (no "New issue: " prefix).
  • The on-update-of ice triggers the notification check whenever the new_titles.log cache file changes (written by the github-issues-srv service).
Terminal window
# Notifications with "New issue:" prefix
zi pack for github-issues
# Notifications with compact message only
zi pack"compact-message" for github-issues
  • This package only handles display; the github-issues-srv package must also be loaded to poll GitHub and write the log file.
