When I test with a variable like:

test="abc"

above command didn't save into history, must I have messed up with some setopt but I don't know which can be affect to this.

So what zsh history opts can prevent it from saving var into zsh history? I have HIST_NO_FUNCTIONS set that I suspect it.

EDIT: full setopt

autocd
autonamedirs
autopushd
extendedglob
extendedhistory
noglobalrcs
histexpiredupsfirst
histfindnodups
histignorealldups
histignoredups
histignorespace
histnofunctions
histnostore
histreduceblanks
histsavenodups

A few days ago, in another question, you said you had added to your ~/.zshrc:

zshaddhistory() { whence ${${(z)1}[1]} >| /dev/null || return 1 }

That causes command lines whose first word (with quoting included) is not the name of any existing command not to be added to the history.

test="abc" is not the name of an existing command on your system, so it won't get saved in the history.

That would also fail to save a command line like "echo" "foo", or <input tr a b >output, or (foo; bar) | baz...

@Gilles had already warned you about that in a comment to your question there.

  • Seem true, I haven’t found a solution for excluding failed commands and force to add it to zshaddhistory. – Tuyen Pham May 24 '20 at 20:23
