Description
It is my understand that if we would not override /home/jovyan we probably would end up with a default .bashrc copied from /etc/skel/.bashrc, but that this is wiped in general due to mounting of storage in /home/jovyan.
Perhaps we could try to retain it somehow, for example by doing...
# Add systemwide .bashrc configuration additions that are normally found in /home/jovyan/.bashrc
USER root
RUN cat /etc/skel/.bashrc >> /etc/bash.bashrc
USER $NB_UID
Resulting changes from unmodified /etc/skel/.bashrc usage
- (not true, it requires
force_color_prompt=yes
is un-commented!) We get colors on the prompt, like...
-
We get colors on the
ls
commands output -
(untested) We get a custom title that isn't Terminal 1 Terminal 2 etc on the terminal tabs, but instead the username and hostname and the path following that... It comes from the following section of the .bashrc and the first part of the PS1 variable. It is too messy though...
# If this is an xterm set the title to user@host:dir
case "$TERM" in
xterm*|rxvt*)
PS1="\[\e]0;${debian_chroot:+($debian_chroot)}\u@\h: \w\a\]$PS1"
;;
*)
;;
esac
Resulting changes from modifying the /etc/skel/.bashrc before using
Assuming we do the following on the /etc/skel/.bashrc before we utilize it by for example augmenting /etc/bash.bashrc, we end up with a result that I consider pleasing.
- remove /h from PS1
- remove "\u@\h: " from the xterm title section
- remove comment from force_color_prompt=yes
