Support for dotfiles #118
Comments
Hi, Indeed this is part of our next improvement point in our road map. This config issue (and not only) will be (probably) be part of "my-resources" functionality. We are still thinking about the correct implementation for a better UX. If you have any suggestions, they are all welcome to complete our drafts. Thanks for using Exegol and supporting the project ! |
Here are some details on what we have in mind. The Regarding aliases, it should be pretty easy to allow the user to load custom aliases through an Regarding other dotfiles, like configs, it's hard to find a good implementation. So, like @Dramelac said, if there are any suggestions, please reach out 😄 |
Thanks to both of you for the fast replies ! I had a simple idea, but maybe is it too naive ? How about copying files in an I understand that exegol aims at being quickly usable (which it's already great at). Could this be a viable customization option that would not be hassle for users not planing to use it ? In order not to interfere with the preexisting Happy to discuss this ! |
Thanks for the feedback and the effort! To share with you our progress, your idea was part of the first track (with a version extended to all the filesystem tree not only /root). We have so far retained another track, less generic and more complex but better controlled. Instead of targeting a folder (/root) we will support step by step the customization of some tools (such as vim, tmux, etc) because they have a limited number of config files specific to the user's personal experience. Other more technical tools can also be supported and we will encourage the community to help us to support more and more tools in this way. We welcome any feedback and comments on our approach to identify potential problems, blockages or missing points! Thank you! |
The new system is currently in beta testing and will be available in the next release of Exegol. |
Hi,
I am new to Exegol and would love to get familiar with it enough to use it on my engagements.
One thing I'd like to know though: is there no way to add dotfiles to the container ? And if not, could this be a feature to consider ? I'd be happy to help implementing it. Here are two use cases I could think of:
Thanks anyways for such a great tool !
Cheers
