Personal settings

I use a Linux-based machine for remote development using SSH and a macOS-based machine for local development.

Requirements

• VSCode >= 1.35
• tmux >= 2.9
• zsh >= 5.7

Download

git clone https://github.com/konstlepa/settings ~/.settings

Z shell

ln -s ~/.settings/zshrc ~/.zshrc
ln -s ~/.settings/zshenv ~/.zshenv

These settings are valid for local and remote machines. Additional environment variables should be in ~/.zshenv.local.

The environment variables

• TMUX_EXEC - use a different path to tmux's executable.
• TMUX_AUTOSTART - attach to a tmux's session automatically after login.
• TMUX_VSCODE_SOCK - use a separate tmux's socket for VSCode.

tmux

ln -s ~/.settings/tmux.conf ~/.tmux.conf

VSCode

Local machine (macOS)

Extensions

In the integrated terminal apply vscode-local-extensions.txt:

pushd ~/.settings
cat vscode-local-extensions.txt | xargs -L 1 code --install-extension
popd

Settings (JSON)

ln -sf ~/.settings/vscode-local-settings.json ~/Library/Application\ Support/Code/User/settings.json

Keyboard shortcuts (JSON)

ln -sf ~/.settings/vscode-local-keybindings.json ~/Library/Application\ Support/Code/User/keybindings.json

Remote machine (Linux)

Extensions

They should be installed manually. See vscode-remote-extensions.txt.

Settings

{
        "terminal.integrated.shell.linux": "/usr/bin/zsh",
        "terminal.integrated.env.linux": {
                "TMUX_VSCODE_SOCK": "1"
        },
}

tmux's clipboard

Add the executable script ~/.local/bin/pbcopy:

#!/bin/sh

tmpfile=$(mktemp /tmp/clip.XXXXXX)
cat - > $tmpfile
code --wait $tmpfile
rm -f $tmpfile
