Elvish: Expressive Programming Language + Versatile Interactive Shell

CI status FreeBSD test status gccgo test status Test Coverage Go Report Card GoDoc Twitter

Elvish is an expressive programming language and a versatile interactive shell, combined into one seamless package. It runs on Linux, BSDs, macOS and Windows.

Despite its pre-1.0 status, it is already suitable for most daily interactive use.

Visit the official website https://elv.sh for prebuilt binaries, blog posts, documentation and other resources.

Building Elvish

Most users can just use prebuilt binaries and do not need to build from source.

To build Elvish from source, you need

  • A supported OS: Linux, {Free,Net,Open}BSD, macOS, or Windows.

    NOTE: Windows support is experimental, and only Windows 10 is supported.

  • Go >= 1.14.

To build Elvish from source, follow these steps:

# 1. Start from any directory you want to store Elvish's source code
# 2. Clone the Git repository
git clone https://github.com/elves/elvish
# 3. Change into the repository
cd elvish
# 4. Build and install Elvish
make get

This will install Elvish to ~/go/bin.

Alternatively, you can also just use go get to install Elvish:

go get -u src.elv.sh/cmd/elvish

This will clone the Git repository to ~/go/src/src.elv.sh, updating it if already exists, and install Elvish to ~/go/bin. However, Elvish built this way will lack version information, although it is otherwise fully functional.

Some tips on installation:

  • Remember to add $HOME/go/bin to your PATH so that you can run elvish directly.

  • If you want to install Elvish to a different place, follow these steps to set GOPATH, and Elvish will be installed to $GOPATH/bin instead.
