• Antigen: antigen bundle xav-b/zsh-extend-history
• ZPlug: zplug "xav-b/zsh-extend-history"
• oh-my-zsh:

$ git clone https://github.com/xav-b/zsh-extend-history ~/.oh-my-zsh/custom/plugins/extend-history

And add extend-history to plugins in .zshrc.

# file to write history
# default to `$HOME/.zsh_extended_history`
export ZSH_EXTEND_HISTORY_FILE="/tmp/my-zsh.history"

# print history collected on stdout instead of file
export ZSH_EXTEND_HISTORY_DEBUG="true"

Just source the file everytime you test changes =)

Something like that can help: tail -f $ZSH_EXTEND_HISTORY_FILE | ./stream.py

• vim and other long-lasting commands is an issue for the start and end hooks (other commands will probably happen in the meantime). We should instead compute a unique id that the end can refer too, and use it to retrieve the start stored in a temporary place (/tmp/gi/{this-id}.cmd).

• the end command sometimes appear on a seperate line (most probably related)

• option to ignore "boring commands" (ls, cd, ...)

• command to nicely display in the terminal? (or put that in gi)

• session id

• Deduplicate

• Only search/display history per directory/git project
