direnv

Summary

Installs direnv from a GitHub release binary and hooks it into Zsh by generating and sourcing its shell integration script on clone and update.

Syntax / Usage

zi for \
    as"program" \
    atclone'./direnv hook zsh > zhook.zsh' \
    from"gh-r" \
    light-mode \
    mv"direnv* -> direnv" \
    src'zhook.zsh' \
  direnv/direnv

Details

• from'gh-r' — downloads the release binary from GitHub Releases.
• as'program' — registers the binary on $PATH instead of sourcing it as a plugin.
• mv"direnv* -> direnv" — renames the downloaded binary (which may include version/platform suffix) to plain direnv.
• atclone'./direnv hook zsh > zhook.zsh' — generates the Zsh hook script after the initial download.
• src'zhook.zsh' — sources the generated hook file so that direnv activates in every new shell.
• light-mode — loads without reporting/investigating for faster startup.

Note: unlike the README example which uses make'!' before atclone, this recipe generates the hook via atclone only; the renamed binary must be executable at that point.
