# Tmux Plugin Manager
[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/tmux-plugins/tpm.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/tmux-plugins/tpm)
Installs and loads `tmux` plugins.
Tested and working on Linux, OSX, and Cygwin.
### Installation
Requirements: `tmux` version 1.9 (or higher), `git`, `bash`.
Clone TPM:
```bash
$ git clone https://github.com/tmux-plugins/tpm ~/.tmux/plugins/tpm
```
Put this at the bottom of `~/.tmux.conf` (`$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/tmux/tmux.conf`
works too):
```bash
# List of plugins
set -g @plugin 'tmux-plugins/tpm'
set -g @plugin 'tmux-plugins/tmux-sensible'
# Other examples:
# set -g @plugin 'github_username/plugin_name'
# set -g @plugin 'git@github.com:user/plugin'
# set -g @plugin 'git@bitbucket.com:user/plugin'
# Initialize TMUX plugin manager (keep this line at the very bottom of tmux.conf)
run '~/.tmux/plugins/tpm/tpm'
```
Reload TMUX environment so TPM is sourced:
```bash
# type this in terminal if tmux is already running
$ tmux source ~/.tmux.conf
```
That's it!
### Installing plugins
1. Add new plugin to `~/.tmux.conf` with `set -g @plugin '...'`
2. Press `prefix` + <kbd>I</kbd> (capital i, as in **I**nstall) to fetch the plugin.
You're good to go! The plugin was cloned to `~/.tmux/plugins/` dir and sourced.
### Uninstalling plugins
1. Remove (or comment out) plugin from the list.
2. Press `prefix` + <kbd>alt</kbd> + <kbd>u</kbd> (lowercase u as in **u**ninstall) to remove the plugin.
All the plugins are installed to `~/.tmux/plugins/` so alternatively you can
find plugin directory there and remove it.
### Key bindings
`prefix` + <kbd>I</kbd>
- Installs new plugins from GitHub or any other git repository
- Refreshes TMUX environment
`prefix` + <kbd>U</kbd>
- updates plugin(s)
`prefix` + <kbd>alt</kbd> + <kbd>u</kbd>
- remove/uninstall plugins not on the plugin list
