πŸš€ Installation

🏠 Production installation

Using wget:

bash <(wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CodelyTV/dotly/HEAD/installer)

Or using curl:

bash <(curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CodelyTV/dotly/HEAD/installer)

🐳 Try it in Docker

You can safely install additional software and make any changes to the file system. Once you exit zsh the image is deleted.

  • Using Alpine:

docker run -e TERM -e COLORTERM -e LC_ALL=C.UTF-8 -w /root -it --rm alpine sh -uec '
 apk add curl sudo bash zsh git g++ python3
 bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CodelyTV/dotly/HEAD/installer)"
 zsh'

  • Using Ubuntu:

docker run -e TERM -e COLORTERM -w /root -it --rm ubuntu sh -uec '
 apt-get update
 apt-get install -y curl build-essential sudo
 su -c bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CodelyTV/dotly/HEAD/installer)"
 su -c zsh'

😬 Important notes

During the installation

where are going to be located your dotfiles?

  1. press Enter if you ok with the default location (~/.dotfiles)
  2. if you want a custom location, the path should include the name of your new dotfiles folder (ex. ~/Documents/workspace/<folder_name>), you don't need to create it manually, if you do that, you'll get a .back folder of your empty folder
