# Autoenv for Zsh
zsh-autoenv automatically sources (known/whitelisted) `.autoenv.zsh` files,
typically used in project root directories.
It handles "enter" and leave" events, nesting, and stashing of
variables (overwriting and restoring).
## Features
- Support for enter and leave events, which can use the same file.
By default it uses `.autoenv.zsh` for entering, and `.autoenv_leave.zsh`
for leaving.
- Interactively asks for confirmation / authentication before sourcing an
unknown `.autoenv.zsh` file, and remembers whitelisted files by their
hashed content.
- Test suite.
- Written in Zsh.
### Variable stashing
You can use `autostash` in your `.autoenv.zsh` files to overwrite some
variable, e.g. `$PATH`. When leaving the directory, it will be automatically
restored.
% echo 'echo ENTERED; autostash FOO=changed' > project/.autoenv.zsh
% FOO=orig
% cd project
Attempting to load unauthorized env file!
-rw-rw-r-- 1 user user 36 Mai 6 20:38 /tmp/project/.autoenv.zsh
**********************************************
echo ENTERED; autostash FOO=changed
**********************************************
Would you like to authorize it? (type 'yes') yes
ENTERED
project % echo $FOO
changed
% cd ..
% echo $FOO
orig
There is also `stash`, `unstash` and `autounstash`, in case you want to
have more control.
The varstash library has been taken from smartcd, and was optimized for Zsh.
## Writing your .autoenv.zsh file
### `autoenv_source_parent()`
zsh-autoenv will stop looking for `.autoenv.zsh` files upwards after the first
one has been found, but you can use the function `autoenv_source_parent` to
source the next `.autoenv.zsh` file upwards the directory tree from there.
The function accepts an optional argument, which allows to stop looking before
the file system root is reached:
```zsh
autoenv_source_parent ../..
```
## Installation
Clone the repository and source it from your `~/.zshrc` file:
% git clone https://github.com/Tarrasch/zsh-autoenv ~/.dotfiles/lib/zsh-autoenv
% echo 'source ~/.dotfiles/lib/zsh-autoenv/autoenv.zsh' >> ~/.zshrc
### Using [antigen](https://github.com/zsh-users/antigen)
antigen-bundle Tarrasch/zsh-autoenv
### Using [zgen](https://github.com/tarjoilija/zgen)
Add the following to your `.zshrc` where you are loading your plugins:
zgen load Tarrasch/zsh-autoenv
### Using [zplug](https://github.com/zplug/zplug)
Add the following to your `.zshrc` where you are loading your plugins:
zplug "Tarrasch/zsh-autoenv"
## Configuration
You can use the following variables to control zsh-autoenv's behavior.
Add them to your `~/.zshrc` file, before sourcing/loading zsh-autoenv.
### AUTOENV_FILE_ENTER
Name of the file to look for when entering directories.
Default: `.autoenv.zsh`
### AUTOENV_FILE_LEAVE
Name of the file to look for when leaving directories.
Requires `AUTOENV_HANDLE_LEAVE=1`.
Default: `.autoenv_leave.zsh`
### AUTOENV_LOOK_UPWARDS
Look for zsh-autoenv "enter" files in parent dirs?
Default: `1`
### AUTOENV_HANDLE_LEAVE
Handle leave events when changing away from a subtree, where an "enter"
event was handled?
Default: `1`
### AUTOENV_DISABLED
(Temporarily) disable zsh-autoenv. This gets looked at in the chpwd handler.
Default: 0
### AUTOENV_DEBUG
Set debug level. If enabled (> 0) it will print information to stderr.
- 0: no debug messages
- 1: generic debug logging
- 2: more verbose messages
- messages about adding/removing files on the internal stack
- 3: everything
- sets xtrace option (`set -x`) while sourcing env files
Default: `0`
## Usage
zsh-autoenv works automatically once installed.
You can use ``autoenv-edit`` to edit the nearest/current autoenv files.
It will use ``$AUTOENV_EDITOR``, ``$EDITOR``, or ``vim`` for editing.
## Recipes
### Automatically activate Python virtualenvs
Given `AUTOENV_FILE_ENTER=.autoenv.zsh`, `AUTOENV_FILE_LEAVE=.autoenv.zsh` and
`AUTOENV_HANDLE_LEAVE=1` the following script will activate Python virtualenvs
automatically in all subdirectories (`.venv` directories get used by
[pipenv](https://github.com/kennethreitz/pipenv) with
`PIPENV_VENV_IN_PROJECT=1`):
```zsh
# Environment file for all projects.
# - (de)activates Python virtualenvs (.venv) from pipenv
if [[ $autoenv_event == 'enter' ]]; then
autoenv_source_parent
_my_autoenv_venv_chpwd() {
if [[ -z "$_ZSH_ACTIVATED_VIRTUALENV" && -n "$VIRTUAL_ENV" ]]; then
return
fi
setopt localoptions extendedglob
local -a venv
venv=(./(../)#.venv(NY1:a))
if [[ -n "$_ZSH_ACTIVATED_VIRTUALENV" && -n "$VIRTUAL_ENV" ]]; then
if ! (( $#venv )) || [[ "$_ZSH_ACTIVATED_VIRTUALENV" != "$venv[1]" ]]; then
unset _ZSH_ACTIVATED_VIRTUALENV
echo "De-activating virtualenv: ${(D)VIRTUAL_ENV}" >&2
deactivate
fi
fi
if [[ -z "$VIRTUAL_ENV" ]]; then
if (( $#venv )); then
echo "Activating virtualenv: ${(D)venv}" >&2
source $venv[1]/bin/activate
_ZSH_ACTIVATED_VIRTUALENV="$venv[1]"
fi
fi
}
autoload -U add-zsh-hook
add-zsh-hook chpwd _my_autoenv_venv_chpwd
_my_autoenv_venv_chpwd
else
add-zsh-hook -d chpwd _my_autoenv_venv_chpwd
fi
```

## History
This started as an optimized version of the bash plugin
[autoenv](https://github.com/kennethreitz/autoenv) but for Zsh, and grew a lot
of functionality on top of it (inspired by [smartcd]).
The code was initially based on
[@joshuaclayton](https://github.com/joshuaclayton)'s dotfiles.
In September 2013 [@Tarrasch](https://github.com/Tarrasch) packaged it into a
nice [antigen]-compatible unit with integration tests. Since November 2014,
[@blueyed](https://github.com/blueyed) took over and added many nice
features, mainly inspired by [smartcd].
