Show domain in steeef.zsh-theme about steeef HOT 5 CLOSED

Hi @2Belette. In steeef.zsh-theme, replace %m by %2m two have 2 components displayed (or replace by the number you prefer), or by %M to have the full machine hostname displayed.

See more at the Prompt-Expansion documentation.

Thanks @ericbn ! I learned something :)
For my usecase it doesn't work as my machine has short name in hostname and I would need to find a way to append the domain name but I can't find a way.
Is there a way to parse anything? like echoing something

Doesn't %M work?

from steeef.

@lnicola it is giving me the same result as %m

for example :
username : belette
name of the computer : x1
domain name on resolv.conf (mydomain.com)

zim prompt with %m :belette at x1 in ~$
zim prompt with %M : belette at x1 in ~$

No difference

Note that the domain (called search now) line in resolv.conf doesn't set the domain name of your current computer, but configures the DNS resolver. The FQDN is in /etc/hostname (or you can check it with hostnamectl if you're running systemd).

I think you can also embed commands in the prompt (PS1='$(ls)'), but reading that file on each prompt would be quite slow. I would rather make sure the domain is configured correctly instead.
