ZOXIDE(1)

🌸 NAME 🌸

okay so bestie, this is the zoxide manual, section 1, and today's main character is zoxide-add — she's the one who adds a new directory to your database, or bumps up the rank of one that's already chilling in there. 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

zoxide add [PATHS]

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so here's the tea, fr fr. If the directory isn't already in the database, this command creates a brand new entry for it with a default score of 1. But if it is already in there? Then she just increments the existing score by 1 instead. no cap. 🫶

Then — and this is important — it sets the last updated field of that entry to the current time. 🕐✨

After all that, it runs the AGING algorithm on the database. if you wanna know more about how that algorithm works, go peek at zoxide(1) — she explains it way better than I ever could. 👑

also!! if you're sitting here like "bestie I do NOT want this directory in my database", that's so valid. check out the _ZO_EXCLUDE_DIRS environment variable, which also lives over in zoxide(1). it's your get-out-of-jail-free card. 🙈

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

• -h, --help — prints help information. that's it, that's the whole option. short and sweet, we love her for it. 💜
