My personal configuration files and installation scripts.
* Emacs Configuration
I use [[https://github.com/hlissner/doom-emacs][Doom Emacs]] with a handful of additional packages. My configuration lives
in the [[file:.doom.d/][.doom.d]] folder in the following three files:
- [[file:.doom.d/init.el][init.el]] :: Sets up Doom Emacs with the modules I want available.
- [[file:.doom.d/packages.el][packages.el]] :: Contains all of the additional packages that I install.
- [[file:.doom.d/config.org][config.org]] :: My literate configuration file containing all of my
customization. Check this out if you want to see how I set things up.
* Provisioning
Rather than attempting to remember what I which applications I want installed
and how I have to install them on my machines, I've scripted them into a set of
"recipes" that I can easily execute to get my environment set up. Think
something like Chef or Ansible, except hacked together in bash.
Simply by cloning this repository and running [[file:provision.sh][./provision.sh]], I can turn any OSX
or Ubuntu machine (typically my work laptop and personal Chromebook running
[[https://galliumos.org/][GalliumOS]]) into a comfortably familiar [[file:recipes/base][basic environment]] with [[file:recipes/zsh][zsh]], [[file:recipes/git][git]], [[file:recipes/emacs][emacs]],
my [[file:recipes/bin][personal scripts]], and my favorite [[file:recipes/shell-utils][command-line utilities]].
Once the [[file:recipes/base][base]] (or, at the very least, [[file:recipes/bin][bin]]) recipe has been installed, the
provisioning tool is available in my path as =dotfiles=, which I can then
execute to install other recipes as I need them.
Most (but not all!) of the recipes are built to support both OSX and Ubuntu (or
other Debian-based distributions). I've preferred =brew= when possible for OSX,
and =apt= for Ubuntu (as linuxbrew is slow and eats up way too much space on my
Chromebook).
** Setup
- Clone this repository to =~/dotfiles= (some recipes depend on this location,
sorry).
- Run =./provision.sh= with no arguments for the base installation, or
=./provision.sh bin= for the minimum (which simply adds =${HOME}/dotfiles/bin=
to the PATH).
** Usage
: dotfiles [OPTION]... [RECIPE]...
Provision one or more dotfiles RECIPEs.
*** Options:
- -A, --all :: Install all available recipes.
- -D, --debug :: Enable debug logging, including command output for each step.
- -h, --help :: Display this help text and exit.
- -l, --list :: Display all available recipes and exit.
- -r, --restart :: Restart the shell upon completion.
If no =RECIPE= is provided (and the =-A/--all= flag is not set), the [[file:recipes/base][base]] recipe
will be provisioned.
