`zoxide` does not work #847

Closed Shaharyar-developer closed 2 weeks ago

Shaharyar-developer commented 2 weeks ago

Zoxide does not work.

The database does not maintain any data. I tried manually overriding the env _ZO_DATA_DIR variable, this did infact change where the db.zo file is sometimes present running zi simply returns no match found regardless of where its run

What shell / OS are you using zoxide on? Have you added the init line to the end of your config as mentioned in the README?

this did infact change where the db.zo file is sometimes present

What does this mean? Does the file disappear after it has been created once?

Nvm. That was just me being extremely sleep deprived and incognizant. Instead of setting the alias as alias cd="z" I set it to alias z="cd". The same goes for the file disappearing, I didn't provide an absolute path to the _ZO_DATA_DIR env var

zoxide will produce a warning next time: https://github.com/ajeetdsouza/zoxide/commit/b881866216d53239d0337feac4e19008f9a7f340
