Dotfiles

This repository contains useful (config) files that I use on my machines.

Initialization

On a freshly set up machine, run:

curl https://code.webartifex.biz/alexander/dotfiles/raw/branch/main/.local/share/dotfiles/setup.sh \
     > ./setup.sh && source ./setup.sh && rm ./setup.sh

This gives you a local copy of the latest version of this repository (located in $XDG_DATA_HOME/dotfiles) and initializes all the dotfiles provided here on the system. Further, zsh is set up with oh-my-zsh and zplug if it is installed.

Note: Log out and in again so that bash and zsh run as login shells. Otherwise, ~/.profile is probably not sourced.

Important: Don't forget to back up your current dotfiles!

Python Development Environments

The develop environments for Python are managed via pyenv.

To set them up, run:

create-or-update-python-envs

Several Python versions are installed. Additionally, two virtualenvs, called "interactive" and "utils", are also created:

  • "interactive" is the default environment, and
  • "utils" hosts globally available utilities (e.g., youtube-dl).

Use pyenv local ... to specify a particular Python binary for a project.

Private Dotfiles

After setting up the Python environments (i.e., the "utils"), running mackup restore symlinks further dotfiles into ~/. This only works for this project's maintainer.
