My .zshrc

My .zshrc may not suit your needs. Feel free to read and understand. Steal anything. My opinion is that you can't have an universal .zshrc. If you don't agree, take a look at Prezto.

You can copy your installation to a remote host with install-zsh function.

~/.zsh/run contains runtime files, like history. ~/.zsh/local contains local files that should not be copied to a remote host.

I am targetting compatibility with Zsh 5.0.2 (the one in CentOS 7, 5.0.7 is in Jessie). Notably, I cannot use local array=(el1 el2), as this is only allowed since Zsh 5.1.

Installation

If you are one of those young people not concerned about arbitrary code execution, you can do:

curl -sL https://github.com/vincentbernat/zshrc/releases/download/latest/zsh-install.sh | sh

There is also a Home Manager module:

{
  description = "NixOS configuration";

  inputs = {
    nixpkgs.url = "github:nixos/nixpkgs/nixos-unstable";
    home-manager.url = "github:nix-community/home-manager";
    home-manager.inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs";
  };

  outputs = inputs@{ nixpkgs, home-manager, ... }: {
    nixosConfigurations = {
      hostname = nixpkgs.lib.nixosSystem {
        system = "x86_64-linux";
        modules = [
          ./configuration.nix
          home-manager.nixosModules.home-manager
          {
            users.users.joe.shell = pkgs.zsh;
            programs.zsh.enable = true;
            home-manager.users.joe = { ... }: {
              imports = [ zshrc.homeManagerModules.default ];
              home.stateVersion = "24.05";
            };
          }
        ];
      };
    };
  };
}
