alias-finder plugin

This plugin searches the defined aliases and outputs any that match the command inputted. This makes learning new aliases easier.

Usage

To use it, add alias-finder to the plugins array of your zshrc file:

plugins=(... alias-finder)

To enable it for every single command, set zstyle in your ~/.zshrc.

# ~/.zshrc

zstyle ':omz:plugins:alias-finder' autoload yes # disabled by default
zstyle ':omz:plugins:alias-finder' longer yes # disabled by default
zstyle ':omz:plugins:alias-finder' exact yes # disabled by default
zstyle ':omz:plugins:alias-finder' cheaper yes # disabled by default

As you can see, options are also available with zstyle.

Options

In order to clarify, let's say alias a=abc has source 'abc' and destination 'a'.

  • Use --longer or -l to include aliases where the source is longer than the input (in other words, the source could contain the whole input).
  • Use --exact or -e to avoid aliases where the source is shorter than the input (in other words, the source must be the same with the input).
  • Use --cheaper or -c to avoid aliases where the destination is longer than the input (in other words, the destination must be the shorter than the input).
