Your dotfiles are how you personalize your system. These are mine.
Here is a screenshot of my simple gnome desktop:
This repo is forked from holman's dotfiles.
In holman's dotfiles the main components that make the Components hierarchy work are not explained well (at least for me). I decided to explain it in my fork.
- zsh/zshrc.symlink: It loads all the
.zshfiles into your environment. (I simplified it in my fork.) - system/_path.zsh: It makes anything in
bin/be added to your$PATHand be made available everywhere. - scripts/..: dotfiles setup scripts.
There's a few special files in the hierarchy.
- bin/: Anything in
bin/will get added to your$PATHand be made available everywhere. - topic/*.zsh: Any files ending in
.zshget loaded into your environment. - topic/path.zsh: Any file named
path.zshis loaded first and is expected to setup$PATHor similar. - topic/completion.zsh: Any file named
completion.zshis loaded last and is expected to setup autocomplete. - topic/install.sh: Any file named
install.shis executed when you runscripts/install. To avoid being loaded automatically, its extension is.sh, not.zsh. - topic/symlink.sh: Any file named
symlink.shis executed when you runscripts/bootstrap. To avoid being loaded automatically, its extension is.sh, not.zsh. - topic/*.symlink: Any file ending in
*.symlinkgets symlinked into your$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 runscripts/bootstrap.
Run this:
git clone https://github.com/berikai/dotfiles.git ~/.dotfiles
cd ~/.dotfiles
scripts/bootstrapThis will symlink the appropriate files in .dotfiles to your home directory.
Everything is configured and tweaked within ~/.dotfiles.
doti is a simple script that installs some dependencies. Tweak this script, and occasionally run doti from
time to time to keep your environment fresh and up-to-date. You can find
this script in bin/
