|pypi| |docs| |build-status| |coverage| |license|

**New to tmux?** Pre-order a copy of my new book `The Tao of tmux <https://leanpub.com/the-tao-of-tmux>`_ on Leanpub,
`Amazon Kindle`_, `Apple iBooks`_, or for free `on the web`_. Scheduled for release this December.

Load a tmux session
-------------------

Load tmux sessions via json and YAML, `tmuxinator`_ and
`teamocil`_ style.

.. code-block:: yaml

session_name: 4-pane-split
windows:
- window_name: dev window
layout: tiled
shell_command_before:
- cd ~/ # run as a first command in all panes
panes:
- shell_command: # pane no. 1
- cd /var/log # run multiple commands in this pane
- ls -al | grep \.log
- echo second pane # pane no. 2
- echo third pane # pane no. 3
- echo forth pane # pane no. 4

Save as ``mysession.yaml``. And load:

.. code-block:: sh

$ tmuxp load ./mysession.yaml

Sessions in ``~/.tmuxp/`` can use names:

.. code-block:: sh

$ tmuxp load mysession

Projects with ``.tmuxp.yaml`` or ``.tmuxp.json`` load via directory:

.. code-block:: sh

$ tmuxp load path/to/my/project/

Load multiple at once (in bg, offer to attach last):

.. code-block:: sh

$ tmuxp load mysession ./another/project/

`simple`_, `very elaborate`_ config examples

Store configs in (``~/.tmuxp``) or include in your project as
``~/.tmuxp.{yaml,json}``. See `author's tmuxp configs`_ and the
the projects' `tmuxp.yaml`_.

bootstrap project dependencies before loading tmux. See the
`bootstrap_env.py`_ and `before_script`_ example

You can also load sessions in the background by passing ``-d`` flag

Freeze a tmux session
---------------------

snapshot your tmux layout, pane paths, and window/session names.

.. code-block:: sh

$ tmuxp freeze SESSION_NAME
