Zsh: lazy load bindkey to a function?
I have a zsh script that loads when start new shell with default is zsh.
func1() {
<..check if in a git repo, if not return..>
<..code here..>
}
zle -N func1
bindkey 'eo' func1
The above function func1 is triggered when press Alt-o. This function only loaded when in a git repo.
The problem is that the cost of load this function is pretty high and slowing down the shell prompt if it always loaded when start new shell, how to "lazy" - load only when first time trigger Alt-o?

autoload is the mechanism for delaying the load of functions until they are used; in a $fpath directory create a testfunc file:
% < testfunc
testfunc() {
sleep 3
print this is a test function
}
and then autoload it (and then zle ..., if necessary):
% grep testfunc ~/.zshrc
autoload -U testfunc
it should not be in memory until used:
% exec zsh -l
% print $functions[testfunc]
builtin autoload -XU
% testfunc
this is a test function
% print $functions[testfunc]
sleep 3
print this is a test function
