ZPLUG-FROZEN(5)

πŸ’– ZPLUG-FROZEN β€” do not update unless explicitly specified πŸ’–

okay bestie, this is the zplug-frozen manual page, from the ZPLUG Manual series (section 5, for the nerds keeping track πŸŽ€). sit down, grab a boba, we're doing this.


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

zplug "username/reponame", frozen:yes

quick vocab moment before anything else, because words matter: the word package here refers to a string in exactly this format β€” "username/reponame". that's it, that's the whole shape of it. πŸ¦‹


🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so, the frozen tag. what does it do? it lets you skip the update of the repo when you run the zplug command. literally just β€” nope, not today, this one's staying exactly how it is. πŸ’…

and the way this tag is particularly useful? when you're describing a package with the from:gh-r tag, because that thing is so heavy 😭. like, updating it is a whole workout. freezing it is self-care. periodt.

⭐ Table 1. zplug frozen tag ⭐

here's the vibe check on the values, bestie:

  • Possible Values β€” (truthy, falsy)
  • Default value β€” no

and what even are truthy and falsy, you ask? adorable question, here's the tea:

  • truthy means any of "true, yes, on, 1"
  • falsy means any of "false, no, off, 0"

respectively. that's the whole dictionary. πŸ‘‘

πŸ’œ changing the default πŸ’œ

besides, by using the zstyle command, you can change the default value:

$ zstyle ":zplug:tag" frozen true

no cap, that's the whole override. 🫢


πŸ¦‹ EXAMPLES πŸ¦‹

here's how you skip the update:

$ zplug "stedolan/jq" \
    as:command, \
    from:gh-r, \
    use:"*darwin*", \
    frozen:1, \

look at that backslash game. immaculate. ✨

πŸŽ€ FURTHER DOCUMENTATION πŸŽ€

see the references in the official wiki page to get started using zplug. fair warning though β€” the wiki may perhaps be overwhelming for first-time users. πŸ™ˆ it's giving "a lot" and honestly? valid. take it slow, you got this.
