Dotfiles

This repo contains my dotfiles. I've decided to go with the bare repository approach (at least for linux).

All the os specific files into their own branches (linux/windows).

Linux Setup

  1. From a fresh install of Debian 10/11, open a console (Ctrl-Alt-F2)
  2. Login as the user you created when installing the os
  3. Change to root: su -
  4. Install curl: apt install -y curl
  5. Run the start-here script: curl -Lks https://raw.githubusercontent.com/shiitake/.cfg/linux/.local/bin/setup/go.sh | bash -s username
  6. Wait for everything to finish.
  7. Once it has completed reboot and login: sudo reboot

Windows

  1. Create git repository location: c:\git, clone this repo git clone git@github.com:shiitake/.cfg.git and checkout the windows branch get checkout windows

  2. Enable Window's Subsystem for Linux (WSL). From administrator PowerShell run wsl --install. This will require a reboot to fully complete

  3. Install Chocolatey - Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope Process -Force; [System.Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [System.Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol -bor 3072; iex ((New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadString('https://chocolatey.org/install.ps1'))

  4. Install Chocolatey packages from an elevated command prmopt

  • For dev stuff: choco install -y .\choco\dev.config
  • For basic stuff: choco install -y .\choco\base.config
  1. Copy and paste the contents of settings.json into the WindowsTerminal settings
  • Make sure the backgroundImage path is correct (it should be if your git repository is C:\git)
$termlocation='\Packages\Microsoft.WindowsTerminal_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalState\'
$destination= join-path -path $([System.Environment]::ExpandEnvironmentVariables("LOCALAPPDATA%")) -childpath $termlocation
Copy-Item -Path .\Windows\settings.json -Destination $destination
  1. Download the fonts you want - probably the easiest way to do this is with scoop.sh (also see https://github.com/matthewjberger/scoop-nerd-fonts): a. iwr -useb get.scoop.sh | iex b. scoop bucket add nerd-fonts c. scoop install sudo d. sudo scoop install FantasqueSansMono-NF e. sudo scoop install Inconsolata-NF
  2. Copy the powershell profile to correct location:
$profileDir = Split-Path -parent $profile
New-Item $profileDir -ItemType Directory -Force -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue

Copy-Item -Path ./*.ps1 -Destination $profileDir -Exclude "bootstrap.ps1"

Remove-Variable profileDir

  1. Install some PowerShell stuff: a. PowerTemplate Import-Module -Name C:\git\.cfg\PowerShell\PowerTemplate\ -Verbose b. Oh-My-Posh: Install-Module oh-my-posh -Scope CurrentUser -AllowPrerelease c. Posh-git: Install-Module posh-git -Scope CurrentUser d. Posh-SSH: Install-Module -Name Posh-SSH

  2. Setup neovim:

  • copy init.vim to ~\AppData\Local\nvim\init.vim
  • install vim-plug: iwr -useb https://raw.githubusercontent.com/junegunn/vim-plug/master/plug.vim | ni $HOME/vimfiles/autoload/plug.vim -Force

Todo

  • Move this stuff to it's own script
  • Be smarter.

NOTE: I've found a few examples of how people have setup their window's dotfile.
