Running Postitron from Terminal in Mac

[ibnishak]

Add the following function to your .zshrc (adapted from VScode)

pos() {
  APP_PATH="/Applications/Positron.app"
  CONTENTS="$APP_PATH/Contents"
  ELECTRON="$CONTENTS/MacOS/Electron"
  CLI="$CONTENTS/Resources/app/out/cli.js"
  ELECTRON_RUN_AS_NODE=1 "$ELECTRON" "$CLI" "$@"
}

Now you can open files and folders as

pos ~/Desktop/myfile.R
pos ~/myproj
