Module: libtmux._internal.env
Package: libtmux
Source: src/libtmux/_internal/env.py

pane_id_from_env ( env : t.Mapping[str, str] | None = None ) → str function [source] ¶ function [source] ¶ pane_id_from_env

Return the pane id recorded in $TMUX_PANE.

The % sigil is load-bearing: libtmux passes this id straight to tmux as a -t target, and tmux's cmd_find routes a target to its pane slot *by sigil*. A sigil-less value would be matched against session names instead, silently resolving to the wrong object.

Examples

>>> from libtmux._internal.env import pane_id_from_env
>>> pane_id_from_env({"TMUX_PANE": "%3"})
'%3'

>>> pane_id_from_env({})
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
libtmux.exc.NotInsideTmux: Not inside a tmux pane: $TMUX_PANE is unset or empty

>>> pane_id_from_env({"TMUX_PANE": "3"})
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
libtmux.exc.NotInsideTmux: Not inside a tmux pane: $TMUX_PANE is not a pane id...

Parameters

env ( t.Mapping[str, str] | None ) – Environment to read. Defaults to os.environ .

Returns

str The pane id, e.g. "%3".

Raises

NotInsideTmux – When $TMUX_PANE is unset, empty, or is not a %-prefixed id.
