dotfiles

Follows the structure from holman/dotfiles and trishume/dotfiles

See also a simpler version which I recomend as a more lightweight starting point.

Components

There's a few special files in the hierarchy.

• bin/: Anything in bin/ will get added to your $PATH and be made available everywhere.
• topic/*.zsh: Any files ending in .zsh get loaded into your environment.
• topic/*.symlink: Any files ending in *.symlink get 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 ./deploy.sh.
• topic.config/*.symlink: Any files / folders under a topic.config folder get symlinked into your $HOME/.config.
• topic/*.env.zsh: Any files ending in env.zsh get loaded first so that other config files can use these variables.
• topic/*.install.sh: Any files named install.sh get run when the root ./install.sh is run. Used for installing dependencies. These files should handle whether you are on osx or linux and also respect the NO_ROOT env variable.

Install

Run this:

git clone git@github.com:erees1/dotfiles.git ~/.dotfiles
cd ~/.dotfiles
./install.sh

If you are on linux and don't have root access run the following instead

NO_ROOT=1 ./install.sh

Then run:

./deploy.sh
