Dotger

Dotger is a dotfiles manager inspired by stow.

Why?

Since I started managging my dotfiles I used different methods. I discovered stow and it works but I found it unintuitive.

Usage (under development)

Put your dotfiles in a monorepo organized as you want. Lets take a look to my neovim files.

Create a folder named .dotfiles in your home path. If you dont know what is your home path put this in a terminal.

echo $HOME

Inside this folder I will create another folder named neovim. In this folder I will move all my neovim files under a nvim folder. Now create a file named .dotger.toml

[destination]
path = "<home path>/.config" # replace `home path` by your home path
mkdir = true # create destination folder if not exists
# link entry
# under $HOME/.dotfiles
dotger link neovim
