Tmux plugin to fetch the github profile. Displays, the currently authenticated git username.

Features

Installation

If you are using gh cli to manage your github.com or affliated github accounts and switch between them, then this plugin shows the currently active account in the tmux status line.

Requirements

• gh

Note: Please use this command to check whether tmux is able to find gh: tmux run-shell -b 'command -v gh && echo "gh is available" || echo "gh is not available"'

Install via TPM

Add this line to your ~/.tmux.conf

set -g @plugin 'tardunge/tmux-gh'

Reload configuration, then press prefix + I to install plugin.

Usage

For rendering the current active gh account:

# in .tmux.conf
set-option -g status-right '#{tmux_gh_uname}'

# incase you are using powerlevel10k theme.
# set your desired area with the place-holder #{tmux_gh_uname}

set-option -g @themepack-status-right-area-right-format "#{tmux_gh_uname}"

You can switch your github profile as usual using

gh auth switch

Now, the username should be automatically changed in the status-line.
