Paket file

Paket supports a paket.toml file to describe a package and copy optional non .fish files. Here is a sample file of GitNow Fish package.

[package]
name = "gitnow"
version = "2.5.1"
authors = ["Jose Quintana <https://joseluisq.net>"]
license = "MIT OR Apache-2.0"
description = "Speed up your Git workflow. 🐠"
repository = "https://github.com/joseluisq/gitnow"
keywords = [
    "git",
    "git-workflow",
    "fish-shell",
    "fish-packages",
    "keybindings",
    "bitbucket",
    "github"
]

# Copy extra non Fish files (optional)
include = [
    "conf.d/.gitnow"
]

# Paket events which can trigger Fish shell events (optional)
# Use the format `[package_name]_[event_name]` without the brackets and spaces (underscores instead).
# Also make sure that every value match with your package's Fish shell event (--on-event).
[events]
after-install = "gitnow_install"
after-update = "gitnow_update"
before-uninstall = "gitnow_uninstall"

Fish shell events

Paket has a few events which can be used to trigger Fish shell events defined in your package.

Events definition and format

Appending a -e or --on-event flag to your function(s) tells Fish to run it when the specified named event is emitted.

Use the format [package_name]_[event_name] without the brackets and spaces (underscores instead). Also, make sure that every value matches with your package's Fish Shell event (--on-event).

Package example

Define a paket.toml file for your package:

[package]
name = "mypackage"
version = "0.0.0"
# ...

# Events (optional)
[events]
after-install = "mypackage_install"
before-uninstall = "mypackage_uninstall"

Optionally you can sign your corresponding functions with the --on-event (-e) value defined above.

# It will be immediately run after the package is installed
function __my_package_install -e mypackage_install
    echo "Installing my package..."
end

# It will be immediately run before the package is uninstalled
function __my_package_uninstall -e mypackage_uninstall
    echo "Uninstalling my package..."
end
