Hello,
I thought that I share a way of writing runnable objects in such a way
that they can be both invoked as a script and as a function. The main
contribution is a concise method of getting the directory path where
the object is located:
# Run as script? ZSH_SCRIPT is a Zsh 5.3 addition
if [[ $0 != example-script || -n $ZSH_SCRIPT ]]; then
0=${${ZERO:-${0:#$ZSH_ARGZERO}}:-${(%):-%N}}
0=${${(M)0##/*}:-$PWD/$0}
# Such global variable is expected to be typeset'd -g
# in the plugin.zsh file. Here it's restored in case
# of the function being ran as a script
typeset MY_PLUGIN_DIR=${0:h}
fi
The code is also available at Zplugin's repo – it is being added as an
example object when creating a plugin with the `create' subcommand:
https://github.com/zdharma/zplugin/blob/master/doc/example-script
I wonder if one could get the directory where the function is being
located directly, without the global *_DIR parameter? Without use of
the $*trace parameters (I don't trust them;).
