dotfiles

Personal Dotfiles

Features

gitignore
sets up zsh using oh-my-zsh

Installation

Install rcm:

brew tap thoughtbot/formulae
brew install rcm

Install the dotfiles:

env RCRC=$HOME/dotfiles/rcrc rcup

After the initial installation, you can run rcup without the one-time variable RCRC being set (rcup will symlink the repo's rcrc to ~/.rcrc for future runs of rcup). See example.

This command will create symlinks for config files in your home directory. Setting the RCRC environment variable tells rcup to use standard configuration options:

Exclude the README.md and LICENSE files, which are part of the dotfiles repository but do not need to be symlinked in.
Give precedence to personal overrides which by default are placed in ~/dotfiles-local

You can safely run rcup multiple times to update:

rcup

You should run rcup after pulling a new version of the repository to symlink any new files in the repository.

Installing Dependencies and Packages (Optional)

This optional step will install a bunch of common packages required in frontend development as well as Data Science/ML Programming with Python.

git clone https://github.com/keho98/dotfiles.git ~/dotfiles
cd ~/dotfiles
chmod +x setup.sh
./setup.sh
