sloria's dotfiles

My dotfiles, forked from holman/dotfiles.

a few neat features

• zsh configured with prezto.
• nice fonts for the terminal and coding.
• iterm2 themes.
• anaconda python
• Mac Desktop Applications installed with homebrew cask
• a tmux.conf that's pretty neat
• vim with Vundle for plugin management. All configuration in a single file .vimrc
• pluggable. Everything is optional. Fork this. Remove what you don't use. Configure what you do use.

prerequisites: Install these first

• homebrew
• git (install with homebrew)
• zsh (install with homebrew)
• ruby
• rake
• python
• pip

components

All configuration is done in ~/.dotfiles. Files are separated into topic directories with a number of special files.

• bin/: Anything in bin/ will get added to your $PATH and be made available everywhere.
• topic/*.zsh: Any files ending in .zsh get loaded into your environment.
• topic/path.zsh: Any file named path.zsh is loaded first and is expected to setup $PATH or similar.
• topic/completion.zsh: Any file named completion.zsh is loaded last and is expected to setup autocomplete.
• topic/*.symlink: Any files ending in *.symlink get 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 run script/bootstrap.
• topic/install.sh: Topic-specific installation script. These will execute when you run script/bootstrap or script/install or dot

You can also put any secret stuff in ~/.localrc. This file will be executed by ~/.zshrc

special notes

homebrew and homebrew-cask

Put any common packages and applications you want installed in homebrew/Brewfile and homebrew-cask/Caskfile. These will be installed when you run the bootstrap or dot scripts.

sublime text 3

Anything in sublime3/User will get symlinked to your Sublime Text User directory.

There is also an example Preferences file you can use.

fonts

To install fonts on OSX, simply drag the .ttf files onto the Font Book application.

python

The python topic installs the Anaconda Python distribution using the miniconda installer. The installation is entirely self-contained, and lives at ~/miniconda.

To import an iterm themes, open your iTerm2 preferences and go to your Profiles settings. In the color tab, click the Load preset dropdown and choose "Import".

install

Run this:
