dotfile

Setup

git clone https://github.com/stkao05/dotfiles <DOTPATH>

Edit zsh/zshrc.symlink to specify the the path of this dotfile (<DOTPATH>)

export ZSH=<DOTPATH>

Run bootstrap script to setup the shell environments

script/bootstrap

The script does the following

• Setup git config if no local git config is presented
• Scan for all *.symlink and create symbolic links

Run install script installing all things specified in install.sh (i.e. all apps from /homebrew/install.sh)

script/install

Components

There's a few special files in the hierarchy.

• 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.
