Features
- Smart key bindings
- Leader key and modal mode
- Session mux/management/resurrection
- Advanced tab management
- Splits and panes integrate seamlessly with NeoVim
- Seamless integration with fish shell
- Catppuccin theme by default
- Integrates cleanly with other Rootiest projects
Customization
User customizations can be added by creating a user.lua file in the
~/.config/wezterm directory.
General Configuration
The file should be structured in the following manner:
return {
-- Ex:
color_scheme = "Catppuccin Mocha",
leader = { key = "a", mods = "CTRL", timeout_milliseconds = 1000 },
default_prog = { "/bin/zsh", "-l" },
}
Config options can be found in the wezterm Configuration documentation.
Options in the user.lua file are written as
key = value pairs (without the config. prefix).
The configuration loading code will detect the user file and merge it with the rest of the configuration.
This is applied after the default config so user options will override any defaults.
Further, the user.lua file is ignored by git and
will not impact your ability to pull updates.
Session Encryption
The default configuration attempts to use my personal encryption keys.
If the keyfile cannot be found, encryption is disabled.
You can customize this by adding (above the return{} table):
MYKEY = "/path/to/keyfile.txt" -- Path to the keyfile
MYPUBKEY = "age1q80h5jsp9d48kggf9kra82xkgyaqdnehqenm003ftapem9re7ytqp9hr6h"
return {
-- Etc..
}
These global variables will be detected and used to apply the encryption.
As with the default configuration, if the keyfile is not found, encryption is disabled.
Tabline Customization
The tabline configuration can also be customized.
This is done by adding (above the return{} table):
local wezterm = WEZTERM -- Link to the main wezterm object
MYTABLINE = {
options = {
icons_enabled = true,
theme = 'Catppuccin Mocha',
color_overrides = {},
section_separators = {
left = wezterm.nerdfonts.pl_left_hard_divider,
right = wezterm.nerdfonts.pl_right_hard_divider,
},
component_separators = {
left = wezterm.nerdfonts.pl_left_soft_divider,
right = wezterm.nerdfonts.pl_right_soft_divider,
},
tab_separators = {
left = wezterm.nerdfonts.pl_left_hard_divider,
right = wezterm.nerdfonts.pl_right_hard_divider,
},
},
sections = {
tabline_a = { 'mode' },
tabline_b = { 'workspace' },
tabline_c = { ' ' },
tab_active = {
'index',
{ 'parent', padding = 0 },
'/',
{ 'cwd', padding = { left = 0, right = 1 } },
{ 'zoomed', padding = 0 },
},
tab_inactive = { 'index', { 'process', padding = { left = 0, right = 1 } } },
tabline_x = { 'ram', 'cpu' },
tabline_y = { 'datetime', 'battery' },
tabline_z = { 'hostname' },
},
extensions = {},
}
return {
-- Etc..
}
The table above is taken from the example in the tabline.wez documentation.
This is the table that will be passed to tabline.setup()
and loaded by the tabline plugin.
