Yes, tpm depends on the system running an awk implementation to parse plugins. It is referenced in the following functions, which are both present in the scripts/helpers/plugin_functions.sh
file:
# return files sourced from tmux config files
_sourced_files() {
_tmux_conf_contents |
awk '/^[ \t]*source(-file)? +/ { gsub(/'\''/,""); gsub(/'\"'/,""); print $2 }'
}
tpm_plugins_list_helper() {
# lists plugins from @tpm_plugins option
echo "$(tmux start-server\; show-option -gqv "$tpm_plugins_variable_name")"
# read set -g @plugin "tmux-plugins/tmux-example-plugin" entries
_tmux_conf_contents "full" |
awk '/^[ \t]*set(-option)? +-g +@plugin/ { gsub(/'\''/,""); gsub(/'\"'/,""); print $4 }'
}
Since awk is not part of bash, it - as well as possibly the coreutils binaries (echo
, cat
, etc.) - should be listed as a hard dependency.
Perhaps someone could work some magic and write a regex parser in bash. :smiley:
For some reason awk wasn't installed on a machine, and I spent a while trying to figure out why tpm wasn't doing anything.
