# Shell Aliases
|
||||
# Configure shell commands
|
||||
|
||||
Pi runs bash in non-interactive mode (`bash -c`), which doesn't expand aliases by default.
|
||||
Pi starts a separate non-interactive shell process for each Bash command. Non-interactive Bash does not expand aliases by default and usually does not load the same startup files as an interactive terminal.
|
||||
|
||||
To enable your shell aliases, add to `~/.pi/agent/settings.json`:
|
||||
Use `shellPath` to choose the Bash executable and `shellCommandPrefix` to run setup before each command.
|
||||
|
||||
## Understand which shell Pi uses
|
||||
|
||||
| Command source | Shell |
|
||||
|---|---|
|
||||
| Model calls the built-in `bash` tool | Pi's resolved Bash executable |
|
||||
| You enter `!command` or `!!command` | The same resolved Bash executable |
|
||||
| Model calls the optional `powershell` tool | PowerShell 7 (`pwsh.exe`) or Windows PowerShell |
|
||||
| An extension provides or replaces a shell tool | The operations implemented by that extension |
|
||||
|
||||
Pi normally invokes Bash with `bash -c`. On Unix systems, it uses `/bin/bash`, then `bash` on `PATH`, and finally `sh` when Bash is unavailable. Native Windows first checks the configured path, then Git Bash, then `bash.exe` on `PATH`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Choose a Bash executable
|
||||
|
||||
Set `shellPath` in `~/.pi/agent/settings.json` when Pi should use a specific executable:
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"shellCommandPrefix": "shopt -s expand_aliases\neval \"$(grep '^alias ' ~/.zshrc)\""
|
||||
"shellPath": "~/.local/bin/bash"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Adjust the path (`~/.zshrc`, `~/.bashrc`, etc.) to match your shell config.
|
||||
On Windows, use forward slashes or escape backslashes:
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"shellPath": "C:\\cygwin64\\bin\\bash.exe"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Run `/reload` after changing the setting. See [Run Pi on Windows](windows.md) for the native Windows defaults.
|
||||
|
||||
## Run setup before every Bash command
|
||||
|
||||
Set `shellCommandPrefix` to prepend shell setup to both the built-in `bash` tool and user-entered `!` or `!!` commands:
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"shellCommandPrefix": "export CI=1"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Pi joins the prefix and requested command with a newline. The prefix runs again for every command, so keep it fast and free of interactive prompts.
|
||||
|
||||
## Enable Bash aliases
|
||||
|
||||
Store aliases needed by Pi in a Bash-compatible file instead of parsing an entire interactive shell configuration.
|
||||
|
||||
Create `~/.bash_aliases`:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
alias ll='ls -la'
|
||||
alias gs='git status --short'
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Then configure Pi to enable alias expansion and load the file:
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"shellCommandPrefix": "shopt -s expand_aliases\nsource ~/.bash_aliases"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Run `/reload`, then verify the alias through Pi:
|
||||
|
||||
```text
|
||||
!ll
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The command should produce the same listing as `ls -la`.
|
||||
|
||||
Aliases must use Bash-compatible syntax. Do not source an arbitrary `.zshrc` into Bash because zsh options, functions, and plugins may not parse or behave correctly there.
|
||||
|
||||
## Troubleshooting
|
||||
|
||||
### The prefix works for `!` but not for an extension tool
|
||||
|
||||
`shellCommandPrefix` configures Pi's built-in Bash execution. An extension that replaces the `bash` tool or provides its own shell operations controls its own setup. Check that extension's documentation.
|
||||
|
||||
### `shopt` is not found
|
||||
|
||||
Pi has fallen back to `sh` or `shellPath` points to a non-Bash shell. Install Bash or set `shellPath` to a Bash executable before using Bash-specific setup such as `shopt`.
|
||||
|
||||
### A setup command waits for input
|
||||
|
||||
Remove interactive commands from `shellCommandPrefix`. The prefix runs in a non-interactive process before every Bash command.
|
||||
|
||||
