## Description
This project is heavily inspired by the super [colorls](https://github.com/athityakumar/colorls)
project but with some little differences. For example is written is rust and not ruby
which make it really faster ([see the benchmarks](#benchmark)).

## Installation
### Prerequisites
Install the patched fonts of powerline nerd-font and/or font-awesome. Have a look at the [Nerd Font README](https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts/blob/master/readme.md) for more installation instructions.
### Archlinux
(coming soon)
### Other
Update your rust toolchain to at least 1.30.1 and install the lsd package with:
```sh
rustup update
cargo install lsd
```
## Configurations
### Required
In order to use lsd instead of the default ls you need to add this to you shell
configuration file (~/.bashrc, ~/.zshrc, etc.) :
```sh
alias ls='lsd'
```
### Optional
Some examples of useful aliases. You can add this to you shell configuration
file (~/.bashrc, ~/.zshrc, etc.) just under the alias above :
```sh
alias l='ls -l'
alias la='ls -a'
alias lla='ls -la'
alias lt='ls --tree'
```
## Benchmark
Result from `hyperfine --warmup 10 'lsd -la /etc/*' 'colorls -la /etc/*' --export-markdown out.md`:
| Command | Mean [ms] | Min…Max [ms] |
|:---|---:|---:|
| `lsd -la /etc/*` | 11.0 ± 0.5 | 9.9…13.0 |
| `colorls -la /etc/*` | 503.3 ± 5.6 | 494.6…513.4 |
## TODO
- [x] Handle the `-l` option (used by default for now)
- [x] Handle the `-a` option
- [x] Add icons before the files names
- [x] Handle all the file types (block/char/pipe/etc)
- [x] Handle the tree (`--tree`) output option
- [ ] Handle the json (`--json`) output option
