✨ Learn how I made d○tman from scratch ✨

Demo 🔥

🌠 Features

• Single file manager (Portable)
• No config files for dotman (No .dotrc 🤦)
• No useless arguments (single command 😎)
• Easy to use
• Extendable ⚒, Available as a Template
• Fewer Dependencies
  • Git
  • Bash>=3

Wait! it's not written in a fancy language

And it doesn't have to be. Why?

• Your focus should be on your dot files & scripts rather than on a dotfiles manager or how to use it.(Wait I forgot what was the command to push files? Is it dt push or dt --push)
• Creating a overly-complex solution for something simple should not be the goal.

💠 Installation

via curl ➰

sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Bhupesh-v/dotman/master/tools/install.sh)"

via wget 📥

sh -c "$(wget -O- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Bhupesh-v/dotman/master/tools/install.sh)"

via httpie 🥧

sh -c "$(http --download https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Bhupesh-v/dotman/master/tools/install.sh)"

dotman is installed by default in /home/username/dotman, your $HOME directory.

Now run dotman for 1st time set-up.

1. Enter repository URL (without .git).
2. Specify folder you want to clone the dotfile repo to (relative to /home/username/).
3. Open up new terminal 🚀.

Manually (you ok ?)

1. Just grab dotman.sh from Releases 🔼 and store it anywhere on your system.
2. Change file permissions to be 🏃 executable.

chmod +x dotman.sh

3. Set alias for dotman (optional). Alternatively modify your .bash_aliases file.

alias $(pwd)/dotman.sh=dotman

4. Run dotman.

dotman.sh

Usage

Just run dotman anywhere in your terminal 🖖.

dotman

Leave the rest to it.

What else 👀

dotman exports 2 variables in your default shell config (bashrc, zshrc etc):

1. DOT_DEST: used for finding the location of dotfiles repository in your local system.
2. DOT_REPO: the url to the remote dotfile repo.

You can change these manually if any one of the info changes.
