integrate with fzf about atuin HOT 23 CLOSED

if you only use zsh-autosuggestions this works:

# zsh autosuggestions
source ~/.zsh/zsh-autosuggestions/zsh-autosuggestions.zsh
bindkey '^ ' autosuggest-accept
_zsh_autosuggest_strategy_atuin_top() {
    suggestion=$(atuin search --cmd-only --limit 1 --search-mode prefix $1)
}
ZSH_AUTOSUGGEST_STRATEGY=atuin_top

This works really well so far!

@Dentrax I believe what you want is possible, although I don't know the details of how to configure the hook correctly.

This command does what you want,

atuin history list --cmd-only | fzf

Now, if you set export ATUIN_NOBIND=1 in your .rc file before the atuin init step, then the TUI based hook won't be installed, and you could install your own to trigger the command I suggested above.

There's a secondary issue that atuin streaming to fzf is slow but I'm gonna close this issue as solved and open a new one for that

from atuin.

I have atuin working with fzf and zsh-autosuggestions
I don't have the time to review it now, or to publish my entire dotfiles but I can dump the important bits. Some of it is a little messy but it's decently documented.

@hd-deman You can write stuff into the shell input by setting it in the buffer like this: BUFFER="some stuff"

from atuin.

#1274 which should be out next week should help with that

from atuin.

cargo install --path . --root $(brew --prefix) cargo install atuin --root $(brew --prefix) should do the trick

It was mentioned here already: #286

This works really well so far!

Works really well - but how do I get the preview window? I tried adding "--preview 'echo {}' --preview-window down:3:hidden:wrap --bind '?:toggle-preview'" to the fzf_opts but that doesn't change anything.

from atuin.

Has anyone been able to get this working properly with multiline shell history? If there's a history command that is multiline, it shows up as multiple entries in the fzf list, which makes this fzf-based search unusable :(

from atuin.

Maybe we should ask fzf's maintainers to detect if atuin is in the path and use that instead of history.

from atuin.

I'm looking forward to this feature! @ellie Each time I write a command and press the UP key to auto-complete current cmd, TUI appears and I had a bit distracting DX. It would be great if we are able to use it with fzf feature enabled only. 😇

i.e. something like the following, but atuin powered. :)

from atuin.

@ellie, there’s a better alternative to fzf written in Rust: skim. Unlike fzf, it can be used as a library, so maybe it’d make sense to integrate it into atuin?

from atuin.

Yeah that seems to be a bug. It's looking for the ATUIN_SESSION environment variable, even though its not needed in your example

from atuin.

Yup the bug is with the bash script! The ATUIN_SESSION variable is actually needed for history to be properly recorded though, so I'll get the bash plugin fixed.

As well as that, you'll probably want a nice way of listing only the command for fzf, so that'll need sorting too

from atuin.

Hey @neerajbadlani!

Once #89 merges, you should be able to do something like this

atuin h l --cmd-only | fzf

from atuin.

Thanks @ellie , above works and is close to what i want . However I see duplicate entries in history .

Also , new to rust ecosystem , since brew install --HEAD dint work , so had to do manual installation .
How do i tell rust to install in specific directory ?

[main:atuin] cargo install --root $(brew --prefix)
error: Using `cargo install` to install the binaries for the package in current working directory is no longer supported, use `cargo install --path .` instead. Use `cargo build` if you want to simply build the package.

from atuin.

Thanks , I am able to integrate it with fzf properly now , exactly similar to what fzf provides , but with machine machine and session sync .
2 things remaining : 1 . Duplicate Entries 2 . Sorted Histories ( Recent , Frequency , .. )
Should I close this and open another issue for those ?

from atuin.

Something like this should work :)

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/11532157/remove-duplicate-lines-without-sorting

We could add a unique flag, but I'd rather not unless it's 100% necessary

Another issue for sorted history would be good! I've been thinking of how we can better prioritise things

from atuin.

^ kind ping @ellie 🙏

from atuin.

this thing works

export ATUIN_NOBIND="true"
eval "$(atuin init zsh)"

zle -N _atuinr_widget _atuinr

_atuinr() {
    atuin history list --cmd-only | fzf
}
bindkey '^r' _atuinr_widget

The only difference is that it immediately executes the code instead of put it into the shell input.
I don't understand how to fix it.
any ideas?

Perfect. just what I needed. Thanks

This doesn't work for multiline entries in the shell history. Has anyone been able to solve that?
