A Ruby script that colorizes the `ls` output with color and icons. Here are the screenshots of working example on an iTerm2 terminal (Mac OS), `oh-my-zsh` with `powerlevel9k` theme and `powerline nerd-font + awesome-config` font with the `Solarized Dark` color theme.
*If you're interested in knowing the powerlevel9k configuration to get this prompt, have a look at [this gist](https://gist.github.com/athityakumar/1bd5e9e24cd2a1891565573a893993eb).*

# Installation
[(Back to top)](#table-of-contents)
1. Install Ruby (preferably, version > 2.1)
2. Install the patched fonts of powerline nerd-font and/or font-awesome. Have a look at the [Nerd Font README](https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts/blob/master/readme.md) for more installation instructions.
*Note for `iTerm2` users - Please enable the Nerd Font at iTerm2 > Preferences > Profiles > Text > Non-ASCII font > Knack Regular Nerd Font Complete.*
3. Install the [colorls](https://rubygems.org/gems/colorls/) ruby gem with `gem install colorls`
*Note for `rbenv` users - In case of load error when using `lc`, please try the below patch.*
```sh
rbenv rehash
rehash
```
4. Enable tab completion for flags by entering following line to your shell configuration file (`~/.bashrc` or `~/.zshrc`) :
```bash
source $(dirname $(gem which colorls))/tab_complete.sh
```
5. Start using `colorls` :tada:
6. Have a look at [Recommended configurations](#recommended-configurations) and [Custom configurations](#custom-configurations).
# Recommended configurations
[(Back to top)](#table-of-contents)
1. To add some short command (say, `lc`) with some flag options (say, `-l`, `-A`, `--sd`) by default, add this to your shell configuration file (`~/.bashrc`, `~/.zshrc`, etc.) :
```sh
alias lc='colorls -lA --sd'
```
2. For changing the icon(s) to other unicode icons of choice (select icons from [here](https://nerdfonts.com/)), change the YAML files in a text editor of your choice (say, `subl`)
```sh
subl $(dirname $(gem which colorls))/yaml
```
# Custom configurations
[(Back to top)](#table-of-contents)
You can overwrite the existing icons and colors mapping by copying the yaml files from `$(dirname $(gem which colorls))/yaml` into `~/.config/colorls`, and changing them.
- To overwrite color mapping :
Please have a look at the [list of supported color names](https://github.com/sickill/rainbow#color-list). Let's say that you're using the dark color scheme and would like to change the color of untracked file (`??`) in the `--git-status` flag to yellow. Copy the defaut `dark_colors.yaml` and change it.
```sh
cp $(dirname $(gem which colorls))/yaml/dark_colors.yaml ~/.config/colorls/dark_colors.yaml`
```
In the `~/.config/colorls/dark_colors.yaml` file, change the color set for `untracked` from `darkorange` to `yellow`, and save the change.
```
untracked: yellow
```
- To overwrite icon mapping :
Please have a look at the [list of supported icons](https://nerdfonts.com/). Let's say you want to add an icon for swift files. Copy the feault `files.yaml` and change it.
```sh
cp $(dirname $(gem which colorls))/yaml/files.yaml ~/.config/colorls/files.yaml`
```
In the `~/.config/colorls/files.yaml` file, add a new icon / change an existing icon, and save the change.
```
swift: "\uF179"
```
# Updating
[(Back to top)](#table-of-contents)
Want to update to the latest version of `colorls`?
```sh
gem update colorls
```
# Uninstallation
[(Back to top)](#table-of-contents)
Want to uninstall and revert back to the old style? No issues (sob). Please feel free to open an issue regarding how we can enhance `colorls`.
```sh
gem uninstall colorls
```
