Configuration Vault

This repo is intended to store all configs that contain all basics for a proper web developer workstation. All main system config files are kept in a single folder and repository. Version management for your workstation.

This started as an opinionated default config, currently it transforms to a somehow flexible solution. Contribution is very welcome.

Most of the bash-scripts are currently OS X only, the universal installer might be useful for any package manager. Let's see how it evolves.

This is not intended to overwrite any dotfiles in your home directory. When attaching an import statement to your original dotfile is not possible, it is renamed and replaced with a symlink into this repo.

So storing and version controlling all your system config shouldn't be a big hussle anymore.

Basic setup

1. Clone this repo somewhere on your machine
2. Have a look what the scripts are doing, it is WIP but mostly commented.
3. Run $ ./setup-configuration-vault.sh to setup minimal configurations.

Environment configuration

4. Run $ ./setup-zsh.sh to setup and configure zsh including oh-my-zsh and the bullet-train theme with custom font & colorscheme.
5. Run $ ./setup-git.sh to setup an extended git workflow with proper diffing, adding and hightlighting.
6. Run $ ./setup-brew.sh to install basic brew packages and tap brew casks
7. Run $ ./setup-node.sh to setup nvm, install node and basic node packages
8. Run $ ./setup-ruby.sh to install ruby with ruby on rails

Install packages and GUI software

9. You can even install browser extensions and end user software from the appstore or brew casks. Run $ ./run-universe-installer.sh to start the universe installer. See below for more informations.

Universe Installer

$ ./run-universe-installer.sh

Runs the universe installer. The idea is to provide an interactive form to select packages from several package managers. This includes npm, brew cask, browser extensions, the App Store and offers many more options.

It basically collects package names by user interaction and runs the corresponding CLI commands afterwards.

@ToDo: Add screen capture gif
