how do i force manjaro nibia (20.2) to use xonsh? i installed it with pacman and then pip

and chshed it

but logging out and back in did not do anything

CaféHaine

@cafehaine

maybe your terminal is overriding your preferred shell ? is xonsh used in a tty ?

Ganesha Sharma

@Ganesha2282882

it's used in manjaro kde with Konsole and CoolRetroTerm

i wanted to see what happens to uninstall bash but it pacman showed a bunch of package errors
so i did not

to kinda force it to use xonsh

David Strobach

@laloch

@Ganesha2282882 in order for chsh to work, the desired shell must listed in /etc/shells.

CaféHaine

@cafehaine

if @Ganesha2282882 installed it with pacman it would be listed in /etc/shells

otherwise it's needed to add it manually yes

Ganesha Sharma

@Ganesha2282882

yeah, it's in there, here's my etc shells:

# Pathnames of valid login shells.
# See shells(5) for details.

/bin/sh
/bin/bash
/bin/zsh
/usr/bin/zsh
/usr/bin/git-shell
/bin/xonsh

CaféHaine

@cafehaine

did you add it manually ? I'm pretty sure the default path is /usr/bin/xonsh

well, /bin is symlinked to /usr/bin/ in arch, but still

David Strobach

@laloch

This is how the package installs: grep -x /usr/bin/xonsh /etc/shells >/dev/null || echo /usr/bin/xonsh >> /etc/shells
So yeah, it should not be the problem.

Ganesha Sharma

@Ganesha2282882

i don't think so.

find: ‘/run/user/1000/doc’: Permission denied
find: ‘/run/user/1000/gvfs’: Permission denied
/usr/bin/xonsh-cat
/usr/bin/xonsh
/var/cache/pacman/pkg/xonsh-0.9.24-1-any.pkg.tar.zst

from command:
sudo find / | grep xonsh --color=none | grep -v /root | grep -v /usr/lib | grep -v /home

so, it might actually be in /usr
but chsh said it's not in /etc/shells. It did not put a No such file or directory error.

Ganesha Sharma

@Ganesha2282882

i modified my shell and /etc/shells, power cycled 1 time, and it actually booted to Xonsh

*in Konsole

gsb19 Hi all. What's the best practice of using existing virtualenvs with xonsh? (not created with vox)

@PotatoAlienOf13

quick question: where can I find the documentation for autoxsh?

ah nevermind

I found out what I was doing wrong

halloleo

@halloleo

@matrixbot @gsb19 You can create your venvs with Python's venv module (python3 -m venv DIR). Just make sure that DIR is a subdirectory in $VIRTUALENV_HOME.)Then vox will see it when you use vox --list. HTH.

Meaning i'll have to recreate the existing virtualenvironments, reinstall dependencies and reconfigure external references to point to the new vox repos or add symlinks in the old scripts/bin dirs to the new virtualens in $VIRTUALENV_HOME .

halloleo

@halloleo

@matrixbot @gsb19 Well, yes and no: If you want to use given venvs, you can either change $VIRTUALENV_HOME or you can switch to a venv just by using its path after vox enter ..., but then you cannot use vox's venv-list feature. Use what's appropriate in your situation.

Hey people, quick question (couldn't find answer in doc): How do I reload a module in xonsh? (the module is imported in my .xonshrc)

halloleo

@halloleo

Is it a normal Python module? Then you just reload the module. Say your module is called mymod, then you can do:

import importlib
importlib.reload(mymod)

If the module is a xontrib it might need more trickery...

Hi all, there is a way to handle the command not found ?
for example, when I enter pands , than ouput message :

~ $ pandas                                                                                                                                                                                        
xonsh: subprocess mode: command not found: pandas
Did you mean the following?
    pandoc:  Command (pandoc)

if there is a function i can import pands automatically ?

eggcaker

@eggcaker

like zsh's command_not_found_handler

anki-code

@anki-code

Hi @eggcaker! This could be handled around this line - https://github.com/xonsh/xonsh/blob/3afd5430a09d84f3ed9bad944db914977b2383b0/xonsh/procs/specs.py#L473
PRs are welcome!

halloleo

@halloleo

@eggcaker I tried to handle this situation via try...except:

try:    
    execx('unknown_command')
    print("Normal flow")
except XonshError as e:
   print("Problems running  unknown_command")

but it doesn't work. See #3701.

@halloleo

@gforsyth Trying to tackle #3956 via git subtree add but the files end up one directory level too deep. :-( (see my comment there. What's best to do?

Aaron Meurer

@asmeurer

@scopatz I think you mentioned once that xonsh has some internal code that does a better job of dealing with subprocesses than subprocess. Are there Python APIs to access this? What exactly does it do better than subprocess?

Anthony Scopatz

@scopatz

@asmeurer - here is the pure python API: https://xon.sh/api/lib/subprocess.html

The thing it does better is piping and you can use the typed xonsh environment for managing environment variables.
