# dots
|
|
|
|
My dot files and a tool to deploy them to various OS's
|
|
|
|
## The Plan
|
|
|
|
* files in [link/](link) get symlinked to `~/.{filename}`
|
|
* files in [copy/](copy) get copied to `~/.{filename}`
|
|
* this process should default to not clobbering existing files
|
|
* [bin/dots.rb](bin/dots.rb) is what users will interact with
|
|
* it should bootstrap based on the OS it is being run on
|
|
* it should run Puppet and associated tools such as r10k via bundler
|
|
* it should not utilize Git submodules; it should instead use [vcsrepo](https://forge.puppet.com/puppetlabs/vcsrepo)
|
|
* the destination of each repo may well need to be added to the parent's `.gitignore`
|
|
* it should configure [iTerm2](https://www.iterm2.com/) on Mac
|
|
* it should configure [Atom](https://atom.io/) on all platforms
|
|
* it should offer a choice to skip steps related to GUI programs
|
|
* it should permit host-specific settings / options
|
|
* this will likely be done via entries in a hiera node file
|
|
* create a Docker image with all tools preinstaleld and set to mount the current user's home directory as a volume.
|
|
* use [gosu](https://github.com/tianon/gosu) so ownership is correct.
|
|
* this may not work on Windows...
|

### Notes thus far
|
|
|
|
1. Install Homebrew
|
|
2. Install ruby >= 2.0 (testing with 2.4.1)
|
|
3. Install bundler
|
|
4. Install cmake and pkg-config
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git clone git@github.com:genebean/dots.git ~/.dotfiles
|
|
cd ~/.dotfiles
|
|
bundle install
|
|
bundle exec r10k puppetfile install --moduledir vendor/puppet_modules --puppetfile puppet/Puppetfile -v
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Installed Homebrew packages
|
|
|
|
To see what has been installed (not the deps) run `brew leaves`
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Packages to install on Mac's
|
|
|
|
#### Powerline
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
brew install coreutils python socat
|
|
pip install psutil powerline-status
|
|
git clone https://github.com/powerline/fonts.git ~/repos/powerline-fonts
|
|
cd ~/repos/powerline-fonts
|
|
./install.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
##### Thoughts on installing with Puppet:
|
|
|
|
* install packages using a provider for homebrew
|
|
* install packages using the pip provider
|
|
* use vcsrepo to clone the fonts
|
|
* create a refresh-only exec that runs the install script
|
|
* add a notify to the vcsrepo resource that triggers the exec
|
|
* this will also take care of bringing in new fonts or updates
