Tmux Lunar Date

Let's count the number of days until Tet holiday in order to make yourself more motivated, just kidding, this plugin will help you to show the current lunar date on your Tmux status line.

This plugin is useful if:

• you spend most of your time in Tmux and you want to view the current lunar date.
• you spend most of your time in Tmux and you are in love with Tet holiday!

Usage

We have 2 options for showing.

• Add #{tet} format string to your existing status-right tmux option to show the countdown number of days to Tet holiday.

• Add #{lunar_date} format string to your existing status-right tmux option to show the current lunar date.

Here's the example in .tmux.conf:

set -g status-right "#{tet} | %a %h-%d %H:%M (#{lunar_date})"

Installation with Tmux Plugin Manager (recommended)

Add plugin to the list of TPM plugins in .tmux.conf:

set -g @plugin 'codeaholicguy/tmux-tet'

Hit prefix + I to fetch the plugin and source it.

#{tet} and #{lunar_date} interpolation should now work.

Manual Installation

Clone the repo:

$ git clone https://github.com/codeaholicguy/tmux-tet ~/clone/path

Add this line to the bottom of .tmux.conf:

run-shell ~/clone/path/tet.tmux

Reload TMUX environment:

# type this in terminal
$ tmux source-file ~/.tmux.conf

#{tet} and #{lunar_date} interpolation should now work.
