dotfiles

Overview

This is forked from holman/dotfiles

Main customizations I have done:

• Added various topic folders
• Added ubuntu-setup (TODO: clean up)
• Added windows-setup folder
• Added mac-setup folder
• Submodules for oh-my-zsh plugins

To start

• Install tools

  script/install

  Every <topic>/install.sh file is executed to install each tool. To avoid being loaded automatically, its extension is .sh, not .zsh.

  The scripts were created for Linux (Ubuntu), some may not work for other Linux distributions, or Mac, list the install.sh scripts, and try run and fix each

• Create symlinks

  script/bootstrap

  Every <topic>/<file-name>.symlink gets linked to home directory as ~/.<file-name>. E.g. zsh/zshrc.symlink gets linked to ~/.zshrc.

Components

There's a few special files in the hierarchy.

• topic/*.zsh: Any files ending in .zsh get loaded into your environment.
  • topic/path.zsh: Any file named path.zsh is loaded first and is expected to setup $PATH or similar.
  • topic/completion.zsh: Any file named completion.zsh is loaded last and is expected to setup autocomplete.
• topic/install.sh: Any file named install.sh is executed when you run script/install. To avoid being loaded automatically, its extension is .sh, not .zsh.
• topic/*.symlink: Any file ending in *.symlink gets symlinked into your $HOME. This is so you can keep all of those versioned in your dotfiles but still keep those autoloaded files in your home directory. These get symlinked in when you run script/bootstrap.
• bin/: Anything in bin/ will get added to your $PATH and be made available everywhere.
• Brewfile: This is a list of applications for Homebrew Cask to install: things like Chrome and 1Password and Adium and stuff. Might want to edit this file before running any initial setup.
