Alacritty Auto Config

Check out the npm package in the npm repository here.

Download the stable release executables from SourceForge.net..

This is a small npm library, which helps you configure Alacritty with ease. It provides both the CLI options and the npm package, which can be used to extend its functionality in any project you create.

NPM Package Installation & Execution

Install the npm package

For windows users, please run the package to see if the configurations actually work or not. I am unable to test it out on windows platform.

Install the package globally:

npm install -g alacritty-auto-config

Note: Run the above command with sudo if you are on mac or linux

Install the package locally:

npm install alacritty-auto-config

Run the npm package binary in the CLI

Before running anything, make sure your alacritty.yml file (if it exists) is backed up, as it may overwrite some configurations in the alacritty.yml file as per your inputs in the CLI/API.

For global install:

alacritty-auto-config [options]=[values]

Or,

aac [options]=[values]

For local install of that npm package, just run the above commands on terminal prefixed with npm like mentioned below.

Ex-

npx alacritty-auto-config [options]=[values]
