What terminal is this and what is the output of locale?

Screenshot is from iTerm but I see the same behaviour on MacOS Terminal.

Output of locale is:

LANG="en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_CTYPE="en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=

Does the output of the following command contain colored bits? Could you post a screenshot?

php artisan --version

This needs to be run in the project directory.

Yes it does, and it matches the color used in the prompt element.

Wow. They'll probably fix this so that colors aren't written when stdout is not a TTY, but in the meantime I can add a workaround.

Please send me the output of the following command. Hopefully it'll be the last one I'll ask you to run.

printf '%q\n' "$(php artisan --version)"

Sure thing, here's that output:

Just for reference, php artisan --version outputs the color on projects that are on Laravel 9 too but the cursor is in the correct position and the color on the prompt element is correct too

Fixed. Please update powerlevel10k and verify whether it now works correctly for you.

Apparently, versions prior to 10 don't have this bug: they output colors only when the stdout is a TTY. You can verify this with php artisan --version | cat. The output should not have colors but with 10.40.0 it does.

I've installed powerlevel10k using brew. What's the best way for me to update seeing as brew is showing as up-to-date

You could ditch brew for now and use the manual installation option, at least until I cut a new release.

1. Comment out this line in ~/.zshrc:

   source $(brew --prefix)/share/powerlevel10k/powerlevel10k.zsh-theme

2. Run this:

   git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/romkatv/powerlevel10k.git ~/powerlevel10k
   echo 'source ~/powerlevel10k/powerlevel10k.zsh-theme' >>~/.zshrc

3. Restart zsh with exec zsh.

I've done that and it's not showing a Laravel version at all anymore:

This is also the case on any Laravel projects, not just Laravel 10.

I still have the laravel_version set in my POWERLEVEL9K_RIGHT_PROMPT_ELEMENTS

🤦‍♂️ f5d5abf

Please try again.

Hooray! All working

Thanks so much

Thanks a ton for you help on this issue: from reporting and remote debugging to verifying and even catching the silly bug I pushed! <3
