This kind of ruins the point of allowing users to override the linemode, because the whole purpose of supporting it was to avoid adding extra options. I'm certain that it's impossible to cover all users' needs with options, and doing so would bloat Yazi. Plus, overriding it is really simple, requiring just a few lines of Lua code, and it has no impact on performance or the need to recompile the source code. However, I can consider changing the default date format from |

My two cents: I'm using a custom linemode so I don't really care about the default. Assuming chronological listing is wanted, let's take March 8th and August 3rd (same year) for example:
August 3rd being listed before March 8th just feels wrong to me. |

I advice using the international standard ISO 8601 or other combinations https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601 |

100% agree. That's the default in programming languages and most tools out there |

or maybe use the locale of the user's system locale -k LC_TIME([cultureinfo]::CurrentCulture.DateTimeFormat).ShortDatePattern |

It is not necesary to do that. Did you set the corresponding keybinds and/or default linemode? I have my custom linemodes keybinds set here. If those are not explicitly set in |

Thanks! What a wonderful tool! I turned it into this: if the file/directory is from previous years, it will be shown, if not, will stay hidden to keep it simple: function Linemode:mtimev2()
local current_year = os.date("%Y") -- Get the current year as a string
local time = math.floor(self._file.cha.modified or 0)
if time > 0 then
local file_year = os.date("%Y", time) -- Get the file's year
local time_format
if file_year == current_year then
time_format = os.date("%d/%b %H:%M", time) -- Without year
else
time_format = os.date("%d/%b/%Y %H:%M", time) -- With year
end
return ui.Line(string.format(time_format))
end
return ui.Line("") -- Return empty if no time exists
end
function Linemode:ctimev2()
local current_year = os.date("%Y") -- Get the current year as a string
local time = math.floor(self._file.cha.created or 0)
if time > 0 then
local file_year = os.date("%Y", time) -- Get the file's year
local time_format
if file_year == current_year then
time_format = os.date("%d/%b %H:%M", time) -- Without year
else
time_format = os.date("%d/%b/%Y %H:%M", time) -- With year
end
return ui.Line(string.format(time_format))
end
return ui.Line("") -- Return empty if no time exists

Is this compatible with the latest Yazi? For me |

It's very simple to override the methods, check out how it's done: init.lua function Linemode:mtime()
-- your override logic
end |

It would be much simpler to use the current system locale instead of having to write Lua code to tweak stuff. Picking up the system locale (LC_TIME) would be the most efficient thing to do, so each user can set the date format he wants to and this will apply to Yazi everywhere dates are involved. |

You can find it in the "/home/alec/.local/state/yazi" directory.Please describe the problem you're trying to solve
The current date format for ctime and mtime linemodes are mm/dd and I wish to be able to change it to the more conventional dd/mm without writing a custom linemode.
Anyway, thank you for making this super fast ducky file manager. Cheers!
Would you be willing to contribute this feature?
Describe the solution you'd like
Maybe it would be good to have an option to format linemodes in the configuration file?
I would contribute but all I know is some terrible python, sorry.
