Installation

1. Clone the repository.

git clone git@github.com:douz/mac-motd.git

2. Add the motd.sh script at the end of your .zshrc file.

echo "/full/path/to/repo/mac-motd/motd.sh" >> ~/.zshrc

3. Restart your terminal.

Modules

The modules are located in the modules directory. You can select which modules to use and their order in motd.sh

# Set modules to load
modulesArray=(banner temperature hdd_usage battery calendar_events)

You can add your own custom modules just by placing your .sh scripts in the modules directory and include them in the modulesArray variable without the .sh extension in motd.sh

Banner module

You can set your own banner message by replacing the value of the variable bannerText in modules/banner.sh.
