Dotfiles

This is collection of dotfiles (zsh/git/aliases/configs/etc) to setup my development environment.

Get the files:

cd ~
git clone git@github.com:stunpix/dotfiles.git .dotfiles

Initialize environment, with:

~/.dotfiles/dots on

and restart shell.

If you no longer want it:

~/.dotfiles/dots off

this will remove all links/files created by dot modules, then you can safely delete .dotfiles folder.

Writing dot modules

To add new dot module, for example bash, create new folder ~/.dotfiles/bash and add there dotconf file. This file is used to enable or disable module and executed each time you run ~/.dotfiles/dots. Then add to dotconf following lines:

# add enable/disable hooks
enable_functions+=(enable_bash)
disable_functions+=(disable_bash)

enable_bash() {
	# some initialization sequence (installing files, links, etc)
}

disable_bash() {
	# some finalization sequence (removing files, links, etc)
}

Folders that have no dotconf file are skipped.

zsh submodules

There is one convention about zsh submodules: they are also must be placed in ~/.dotfiles, but must have zsh- prefix and have zshrc file inside. Once zsh shell starts, it includes all ~/.dotfiles/zsh-*/zshrc files from main ~/.zshrc file, so you can easely extend it by creating new zsh- prefixed folders with zshrc files inside.
