How to install FASD on zsh on Mac

Not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I'm trying to install fasd via this method on my zsh. I tried following the directions but had no luck.

I have it installed via brew and I've added the line plugins=(fasd) in my ./zsrhc file. I also have some other items installed in my ./zsrhc and I don't know if its conflicts with those or where I am going wrong. See below for the .zshrc file contents.

When I follow the directions here and try to run the make install command, I get this output below. When I google this error, I see it has a lot to do with xcode which i don't have installed anymore.

❯ make install
xcrun: error: invalid active developer path (/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools), missing xcrun at: /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin/xcrun

when i run eval "$(fasd --init auto)", nothing happens after it:

❯ eval "$(fasd --init auto)"

fasd install readout

❯ brew install fasd
Running `brew update --auto-update`...

.zshrc file

# Enable Powerlevel10k instant prompt. Should stay close to the top of ~/.zshrc.
# Initialization code that may require console input (password prompts, [y/n]
# confirmations, etc.) must go above this block; everything else may go below.
if [[ -r "${XDG_CACHE_HOME:-$HOME/.cache}/p10k-instant-prompt-${(%):-%n}.zsh" ]]; then
  source "${XDG_CACHE_HOME:-$HOME/.cache}/p10k-instant-prompt-${(%):-%n}.zsh"
fi



export PATH="/usr/local/Cellar/node/18.11.0/bin:$PATH"

source ~/.zsh/zsh-autosuggestions/zsh-autosuggestions.zsh

# To customize prompt, run `p10k configure` or edit ~/.p10k.zsh.
[[ ! -f ~/.p10k.zsh ]] || source ~/.p10k.zsh

# to make more edits, open ~/.p10k.zsh with `code ~/.p10k.zsh`

Any and all help is appreciated.

Solution

  • Installing fasd with brew

    ❯ brew install fasd

    Add this to shell configuration, in your case ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc:

    eval "$(fasd --init auto)"

    Restart your terminal emulator. You should now be able to run f a s d z commands!

    Or instead after installing with brew you can configure fasd as a ohmyzsh plugin: https://github.com/ohmyzsh/ohmyzsh/blob/master/plugins/fasd/
