Advanced Configuration

Managing shell plugins in your own dotfiles

By default, op plugin init writes its configuration to ~/.config/op/plugins.sh and manages that file for you. If you'd rather keep your plugin configuration in your own dotfiles (for example, tracked in version control), you can define the shell functions yourself and source them in your shell's configuration file.

Step 1: Define the plugin functions

Shell functions for each shell should follow this pattern. In this case,

bash / zsh

gh() {
  op plugin run -- gh "$@"
}

fish

function gh --wraps gh --description "1Password shell plugin for GitHub CLI"
  op plugin run -- gh $argv
end

Step 2: Tell op your plugins are already configured

Set OP_PLUGIN_ALIASES_SOURCED=1 so 1Password CLI knows the shell plugins have already been set up:

bash / zsh

export OP_PLUGIN_ALIASES_SOURCED="1"

fish

set -x OP_PLUGIN_ALIASES_SOURCED 1

Note: op plugin init <plugin> edits ~/.config/op/plugins.sh directly and won't update your own dotfiles, so configure plugins manually as shown above.
