Sebastien Varrette aka Falkor's dotfiles

These are my configuration files for bash, zsh, git, vim etc. so as to set up a system the way I like it. For instance, here is a screenshot of my terminal illustrating its behaviour on classical contexts commonly met on a daily usage of interactions with git repositories etc.

Warning: Use these dotfiles at your own risk!

In the sequel, when providing a command, $> denotes a prompt and is not part of the commands.

Pre-requisites

You should install the following elements to use the full functionality of these config files:

  • bash
  • bash-completions
  • zsh
  • zsh-completions
  • screen
  • git
  • subversion
  • vim
  • screen

On Mac OS, assuming you have installed HomeBrew (you really should), you can use brew/Brewfile.minimal to install these dependencies as follows:

# Install brew bundle -- see https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-bundle
$> brew tap Homebrew/bundle
# Collect the Brewfile
$> curl -o /tmp/Brewfile https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Falkor/dotfiles/master/brew/Brewfile.minimal
# Install Falkor's dotfile dependencies
$> brew bundle --file=/tmp/Brewfile -v

On Linux:

# Debian / Ubuntu
$> sudo apt-get install git git-flow bash-completion screen curl subversion zsh fonts-font-awesome

Falkor's dotfiles Installation

All-in-one git-free install

Using curl (adapt the --all option to whatever you prefer -- see below table):

$> curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Falkor/dotfiles/master/install.sh | bash -s -- --all

Using Git and the embedded Makefile

This repository is hosted on Github. You can clone the repository wherever you want. Personally, I like to keep it in ~/git/github.com/Falkor/dotfiles, with ~/.dotfiles.falkor.d as a symlink. This behaviour will be reflected in the install.sh script i.e. if it is invoked from a directory that differs from ~/.dotfiles.falkor.d, a symlink will be created toward the place where your cloned this repository.

Otherwise, to clone this repository directly into ~/.dotfiles.falkor.d/, proceed as follows

    $> git clone https://github.com/Falkor/dotfiles.git ~/.dotfiles.falkor.d

/!\ IMPORTANT: Once cloned, initiate your local copy of the repository by running:

    $> cd ~/.dotfiles.falkor.d
    $> make setup

This will initiate the Git submodules of this repository and setup the git flow layout for this repository.

Now to install all my dotfiles, run:

    $> make install

Using Git and the embedded install.sh script

The above make install command actually runs (see .Makefile.after):

     $> ./install.sh --all   # Equivalent of 'make install'

Note that by default (i.e. without option), the install.sh script does nothing except cloning the Falkor/dotfiles directory if it does not yet exists (in ~/.dotfiles.falkor.d by default).

  • if you do not want to install everything but only a subpart, kindly refer to the below table to find the proper command-line argument to use. Ex:
         $> ./install.sh --zsh --vim --git
  • if you want to install everything in a row, use as suggested above the --all option

Updating / Upgrading

Upgrading is normally as simple as:

 $> make -C ~/.config/dotfiles.falkor.d update

OR, if you prefer a more atomic approach:

 $> cd ~/.config/dotfiles.falkor.d
 $> make update

Note that if you wish to upgrade the Git submodules to the latest version, you should run:

 $> make upgrade

Uninstalling / Removing Falkor's dotfile

You can use install.sh --delete to remove Falkor's dotfiles.

/!\ IMPORTANT: pay attention to use the options matching you installation package.

  • if you install all dotfiles, run:
     $> ./install.sh --delete --all     # OR make uninstall
  • if you install only a subpart of the dotfiles, adapt the command line option. Ex:
     $> ./install.sh --delete --zsh --vim --git

What's included and how to customize?

Tools Type Installation Documentation
Bourne-Again shell (bash) shell ./install.sh --bash bash/README.md
zsh / Oh-my-zsh shell ./install.sh --zsh oh-my-zsh/README.md
