hyper-switch-shell

Allows hyper users to define alternate shell configurations and switch based on key mappings

Install

1. Open .hyper.js
2. Add to plugins:

{
  ...
  plugins: ['hyper-switch-shell'],
  ...
}

Usage

• Open .hyper.js
• Add a shells key, with value an object of shell configurations
  • Each shell must have shell, and shellArgs key values.

{
  config: {
    ...
    shells: {
      default: {
        shell: 'C:/Program Files/Git/bin/bash.exe',
        shellArgs: ['--login'],
      },
      powershell: {
        shell: 'C:/Windows/System32/WindowsPowershell/v1.0/powershell.exe',
        shellArgs: ['-NoLogo']
      }
    }
  },
  ...
}

• Add key mappings - these mappings will update the config

{
  keymaps: {
    "shell:load:default": "ctrl+shift+h",
    "shell:load:powershell": "ctrl+shift+g"
  }
}

• Any given key is supported, provided the keymap shell:load:{key} matches the config key
• Each command simply reloads the config - open a new tab to use the new shell.
