# xontrib-default-command

This [Oh-My-Xonsh][omx] plugin for the [xonsh] shell runs a default command when you

press return on an empty command line.

By default, this command will run `ls`. If `$PWD` is a git project, it will also

run a short git status with `git status -s`.

## Customizing

You can redefine the `defaultcmd` function in your [rc.xsh] to do whatever you want.

For example, if you want a detailed `ls` and `git status`, you could do this instead:

```python

def defaultcmd():

    """Run a detailed ls and git status when no other command given"""

    newcmd = "ls -laFG"

    if p'$PWD/.git'.exists():

        newcmd += " && git status"

    return newcmd

```

## Installation

Install from PyPI via `xpip`:

```shell

xpip install xontrib-default-command

# or: xpip install -U git+https://github.com/oh-my-xonsh/xontrib-default-command

```

Then, add this to your [rc.xsh]:

```shell

xontrib load default_command

```
