OLD Dot Files for onboardme

These files are no longer maintained but may be of use to someone :) Checkout jessebot/dot_files for my current dot files :)

These directories/files are installed to your home directory and follow the XDG Base Directory Spec as closely as possible.

Sections for each config directory/file

.config

hyper

File: ~/.config/hyper/.hyper.js

Sensible defaults for the hyper terminal emulator.

iterm2

iterm2 is a terminal emulator for macOS.

Symlinked File: [~/.config/iterm2/Profiles.json -> ~/Library/Application\ Support/iTerm2/DynamicProfiles/Profiles.json](Library/Application\ Support/iTerm2/DynamicProfiles/Profiles.json)

Profiles.json

Sets some basic profiles:

• default - profile with spacechalk colorscheme,
• minimal - profile with basically nothing special and a plain .bash_profile.

karabiner

File: ~/.config/karabiner/karabiner.json

Config file for karabiner, which is used to map capslock to control on macOS and other key remapping that can be really useful.

kitty

Files:

• ~/.config/kitty/kitty.conf
• ~/.config/kitty/kitty-dark.png

Config files related to kitty, a terminal emulator. Cute open source kitty icon image by DinkDonk, as well as a basic kitty.conf to use some nerdfonts, and set up look and feel on macOS. I don't use this terminal emulator much anymore so I'm not sure how well this still works accross different OSes.

lsimg

File: ~/.config/lsimg/config.yaml

This is a local project that I'm working on to rewrite a bash script in python, to do basic checking of images in the terminal. I might remove it though, because after discovering [ranger], it might not be really needed 🤷

powerline

Configuration files for powerline, a status line for [BASH] and tmux. We enable a spacechalk color theme as well as:

• local IP address
• hostname
• current working directory
• git status info
• unread mail count
• kubernetes info
• laptop battery information
• the time
• status of last run command (only appears if exit code is not 0)

Currently working on getting mail notifications working.

Files for colors:

• ~/.config/powerline/colors.json
• ~/.config/powerline/colorschemes/default.json
• ~/.config/powerline/colorschemes/shell/default.json

Files for configuring powerline for a login shell, and the console shell:

• ~/.config/powerline/themes/shell/default.json
• ~/.config/powerline/themes/powerline.json
• ~/.config/powerline/themes/powerline_terminus.json
• ~/.config/powerline/themes/unicode_terminus.json

File for configuring tmux status line:

• ~/.config/powerline/themes/tmux/default.json

terminator

File: ~/.config/terminator

Default config for my favorite terminal from my starting days in tech, [terminator]. We set some basic spacechalk-esk colors, transparency, and mononoki fonts.

tmux

File: ~/.config/tmux/tmux.conf

Config file for tmux. Currently, it will:

• Sets 256 colors
• enable the powerline tmux status line

vim

Configuration for vim, a text editor, and it's plugins, installed via vim-plug. I am no longer actively using this vim configuration, and it will likely be archived soonish.

~/.config/vim/vimrc is the main file for the global vim configuration. We set a lot of defaults, including:

• making vim use the XDG Base Directory Spec
• setting window width to 82 characters
• enabling line numbers
• enabling highlighting of column cursor is on
• add a colored column on column 80 for tidy python
• sets a nerd font for vim
• enable syntax highlighting
• use spacechalk colorscheme
• configure icons for VimDevicons, and NERDTree
• ale icons changed, ale linters and fixers set for python
• gitgutter icons
• folding defaults
• sets backups to XDG standard
• allow backspace in insert mode
• default tabbing
• set search history
• installs all the plugins here
• uses template files below

Auto-install vim-plug:

• ~/.vim/autoload/plug.vim

Files for syntax highlighting for python, ssh_known_hosts, and .toml files:

• ~/.vim/syntax/python.vim
• ~/.vim/syntax/ssh_known_hosts.vim
• ~/.vim/syntax/toml.vim

Files for default values in a python or markdown file:

• ~/.vim/templates/template.md
• ~/.vim/templates/template.py

Since we install the NERDTree plugin, :NERDTreeToggle enables a directory tree of your current directory on the left hand side of your current vim window.

.cron

local cron jobs for alarms, and package manager updates

.local

Directories:

bin

Files:

• ~/.local/bin/utc
• ~/.local/bin/w3msplits

This is just where we throw a few really simple scripts like:

Command	Description
utc	for ease of use printing the time in UTC
w3m-splits	open split in iterm2 and send a website or HTML file to w3m

w3m-splits is mostly useful for [NeoMutt], but anything is possible 🤷

Directories:

iterm2

Directory:

• ~/.local/bin/iterm2

Everything in there are files written and provided by iTerm2 for integrating iterm2 magic into your terminal. The only custom one is the following:

Command	Description
it2split	Open split in iterm2 with your default profile

state

This directory and the directories/files within it are specifically to auto-generate directory structure so that XDG spec is enforced with tools that only loosely enforce it.

.zshrc

Recently started giving this some TLC, but still in it's infancy to be match the .bash configs. Currently we:

• set some useful aliases
• set the same powerline prompt as bash

Please feel free to fork this repo and make it your own. You can still use onboardme, but you'll want to pass in your git URL and branch. Example:

# this uses your personal git URL and makes sure to always pull from main
# if you want to overwrite your existing dot files, you can also add --overwrite to this command
onboardme --git_url https://github.com/your_username/dot_files --git_branch main
