This plugin for Oh My Zsh makes it easier to manage your Opera GX profiles. With this plugin, you can start Opera GX with a specific user profile by using the opgx
command followed by the profile's name. The plugin also implements autocompletion for the profile names so you won't have to type the entire profile name manually.
There are two ways to install this plugin:
Add this snippet to your .zshrc
file:
# Check for the opera-gx-profiles plugin and install if it doesn't exist
if [ ! -d "${ZSH_CUSTOM:-${HOME}/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/plugins/operagxprofiles" ]; then
git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/troykelly/oh-my-zsh-opera-gx ${ZSH_CUSTOM:-${HOME}/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/plugins/operagxprofiles
fi
Then, source your .zshrc
:
source ${HOME}/.zshrc
First, clone this repository into $ZSH_CUSTOM/plugins
(by default this is ${HOME}/.oh-my-zsh/custom/plugins
):
git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/troykelly/oh-my-zsh-opera-gx ${ZSH_CUSTOM:-${HOME}/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/plugins/operagxprofiles
Next, add the operagxprofiles
plugin to your .zshrc
file plugins list. Here's an example:
plugins=(… operagxprofiles)
Finally, source your .zshrc
to apply the changes:
source ${HOME}/.zshrc
To start Opera GX with a specific profile, simply type opgx
followed by the profile's name:
opgx profile-name
As soon as you start typing the opgx
command and then press the space and Tab keys, Oh My Zsh will suggest available profile names. Continue typing the intended profile name, and the shell will continue to suggest matching profiles.
To manually update the plugin, go to its directory (${HOME}/.oh-my-zsh/custom/plugins/operagxprofiles
by default), and run git pull
.
To set up automatic updates whenever you start a new shell session, add these lines to your .zshrc
:
update_custom_plugins() {
# Check the zstyle value for auto-update
local mode
zstyle -g mode ':omz:update' mode
# If the mode is not 'auto', exit
if [[ "$mode" != 'auto' ]]; then
return
fi
local plugins_path="${ZSH_CUSTOM:-${HOME}/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/plugins"
local plugin
for plugin in "$plugins_path"/*; do
if [ -d "$plugin/.git" ]; then
# Quietly attempt to update the plugin
local git_output
git_output=$(git -C "$plugin" pull 2>/dev/null)
# If the output does not include the "Already up to date." string,
# then an update was performed.
if [[ "$git_output" != *"Already up to date."* ]]; then
echo "Updated ${plugin##*/}!"
fi
fi
done
}
# Run the updates
update_custom_plugins
After saving these changes to .zshrc
, the plugin will automatically make sure it's updated to the latest version whenever you open a new shell session.
