CLI Reference¶

The tpack binary can be used directly from the command line, outside of tmux key bindings.

Commands¶

Command	Description
`tpack install`	Install all plugins declared in tmux.conf
`tpack update [name]`	Update a specific plugin, or all if `all` is given
`tpack clean`	Remove plugin directories not declared in tmux.conf
`tpack source`	Source all plugins without installing (useful for already-cloned plugins)
`tpack tui`	Open the interactive TUI
`tpack commits`	Show commit history for a plugin (internal, used by the TUI)
`tpack check-updates`	Check if any plugins have updates available
`tpack self-update`	Update the tpack binary to the latest release
`tpack version`	Print tpack version
`tpack init`	Initialize tpack (backward compatibility with TPM scripts)

Examples¶

Install all declared plugins:

tpack install

Update a single plugin:

tpack update tmux-sensible

Update all plugins:

tpack update all

Remove orphaned plugin directories:

tpack clean

Legacy shell scripts¶

For backward compatibility with TPM, tpack ships shell script wrappers in bin/. These work if tpack is installed via git clone to ~/.tmux/plugins/tpm:

~/.tmux/plugins/tpm/bin/install_plugins
~/.tmux/plugins/tpm/bin/update_plugins all
~/.tmux/plugins/tpm/bin/update_plugins tmux-sensible
~/.tmux/plugins/tpm/bin/clean_plugins
