use ohmyposh in bash - WSL 2

[thomasdoerr]

Good morning,

I just tried out to enable ohmyposh in my linux ubuntu bash, which is running in WSL2 under Windows 10.

This is not working on my machine:
eval "$(oh-my-posh --init --shell bash --config ~/jandedobbeleer.omp.json)"

The path is set correctly, but it must be:
eval "$(oh-my-posh-wsl --init --shell bash --config ~/jandedobbeleer.omp.json)"

The -wsl is missing.

Best
Thomas

@thomasdoerr thx, I added that context to the docs (will be there soon)

Can you post the content of your .zshrc? I mean the line in which you enable ohmyposh.

[thomasdoerr]

On my machine, this works in .bash_profile, with a theme copied to the linux local home:
eval "$(oh-my-posh-wsl --init --shell bash --config ~/.rudolfs-light.omp.json)"

or in /etc/bash.bashrc
eval "$(/mnt/c/Users//AppData/Local/Programs/oh-my-posh/bin/oh-my-posh-wsl --init --shell bash --config /home//rudolfs-light.omp.json)"

But the nerd fonts only work correctly when starting the bash via Windows Terminal.

On macOS with zshrc:
eval "$(oh-my-posh --init --shell zsh --config /usr/local/opt/oh-my-posh/themes/rudolfs-dark.omp.json)"

I put all the themes in the same folder /home/hsj(current user) with .zshrc file.
And all of them work well except the theme jandedobbeleer.

The content of my .zshrc is:
export ZSH="/home/hsj/.oh-my-zsh"
ZSH_THEME="agnoster"
eval "$(oh-my-posh --init --shell zsh --config ~/M365Princess.omp.json)"

Thanks for your replies.

I've only installed nerd fonts in Windows,and set nerd font both in wsl and Windows terminal,and both work well.

A difference I see is that you use oh-my-posh which is an exe in the bin folder and I’m using oh-my-posh-wsl which is if I understand correctly a Linux file. On 9.

I've tried to use oh-my-posh-wsl instead of oh-my-posh.
eval "$(oh-my-posh-wsl --init --shell zsh --config ~/jandedobbeleer.omp.json)"
But it still happened.

[JanDeDobbeleer]

Please update as I noticed the error format isn't correct when used in eval mode. That should at least display the info correctly.

Thanks a lot.
I've updated oh-my-posh to the latest version.And there are no more errors raised.
