powerline_iconcwd

=================

A drop in replacement for the stock `cwd` segment in

[powerline](https://github.com/powerline/powerline), which allows for specifying

icons for paths/folders. To add an icon for a path, simply create a hidden file

`.powerline_icon` containing the desired glyphs at that path.

Installation

------------

The segment can be installed with pip:

```shell

pip install git+https://github.com/pronobis/powerline_iconcwd.git

```

It uses an additional custom highlight group `cwd:icon`. This group must be defined in `.config/powerline/colorschemes/default.json`. A custom color can be defined in `.config/powerline/colors.json`.

For example, to get the result shown in the screenshot, add to `.config/powerline/colorschemes/default.json`:

```json

{

  "groups": {

    "cwd:icon": { "fg": "white", "bg": "iconcwd", "attrs": [] }

  }

}

```

and to `.config/powerline/colors.json`:

```json

{

  "colors": {

    "iconcwd": 96

  }

}

```

The segment uses default icons for the home and root folders (if `.powerline_icon` is not found). To override those, add the following to your default top theme:

```json

{

  "segment_data": {

    "powerline_iconcwd.cwd": {

      "args": {

        "root_icon": "",

        "home_icon": ""

      }

    }

  }

}

```
