符号链接 ~.zshrc

Question

If my.zshrc file is ~/.dotfiles/zsh/.zshrc, how can I create a symlink so that the file appears as ~/.zshrc?

Answer 1

不需要 Alexej 答案中的cd步骤，因为您可以明确调用 ln -s目标目的地。

ln -s ~/.dotfiles/zsh/.zshrc ~/.zshrc

Answer 2

跑步：

cd ~/ ; ln -s ~/.dotfiles/zsh/.zshrc

Answer 3

for me, when using relative path for symlink, it can show error: ~/.zshrc: No such file or directory error as @astephen2. You should change to absolute path then it working fine

Answer 4

You don't actually need a symlink. Add the following to ~/.zshenv :

ZDOTDIR=~/.dotfiles/zsh

zsh sources ~/.zshenv before any other files, and will use the value of $ZDOTDIR as the location for local configuration files in lieu of your home directory.

Answer 5

On MacOS, you can't use ~ in a symlink where the directory is quoted. You need to use full paths. I'd recommend running ln -s "$HOME/.dotfiles/zsh/.zshrc" "$HOME/.zshrc" Alternatively, you can forget the quotes, and use ~ in place of $HOME , however if there are any spaces (or variables with spaces) you'll probably run into problems.
