Starship cannot handle hostnames with a "-" in them

Issues & Assistance
1

I’ve installed Garuda on multiple pc’s…a couple of which have hyphens in the name…for example XPS-7300 and HP 810-135qe

Starship will truncate the prompt to famewolf@XPS or famewolf @HP 810. Using hostnamectl to remove the hyphen works around the issue but I was wondering if anyone knew of a better solution.

I question this being listed as “unsupported software” when garuda exclusively seems to be using starship to generate the user prompt in the fish shell. This is not being used elsewhere from what I can tell and the configuration has to be garuda specific I would think?

Interestingly this has been a thing since I started using starship. I never questioned it :grinning: might open an issue at starships issue tracker?

In this context, this means that this is not a piece of software we develop (nor customize locally), so there is nothing we can do about it, if it is a bug.
For sure, when it is something handled or that could be handled via the config files we provide, we have to act. But this doesn’t seem to be the case.

Check your

~/.config/starship.toml

That should look similar to this

And try commenting the

trim_at = "-"

Hah, this explains why I didn’t find any issue about it. Didn’t have a look at the config yet. Let’s make this a default? :blush:

I’m only on my mobile and couldn’t test it :grinning:
Let’s wait for the feedback of the OP.
After all, in general, this could be useful to keep the prompt short (I guess…).

That resolved the issue.
