Installing this configuration

Requirements

  • Chezmoi
  • Archlinux or OSX

Installing

Note: You are required to use the env variable SECRETS_OFF=1, as not passing will make chezmoi fail when connecting to my bitwarden's account.

The following environment variables can be set to configure Chezmoi on runtime:

  • ASK: Set to 1 if you want to enable chezmoi prompt
  • SECRETS_OFF: Set to 1 to enable Bitwarden (uses my personal secrets set in .chezmoi.yaml)
  • DOTFILES_MINIMAL: Set to 1 if you want to install the minimal version
  • WORKCONF: Set to 1 to enable work configuration (work email, etc)

For example, you can enable ASK by running ASK=1 chezmoi apply or enable a minimal version of the dotfiles with DOTFILES_MINIMAL=1 chezmoi apply

Chezmoi allows easy install of this configuration by running the following command:

Full version

SECRETS_OFF=1 chezmoi init https://github.com/benmezger/dotfiles.git -S ~/dotfiles

Minimal version

The minimal version installs only the essentials.

  • zsh
  • git
  • vim
  • emacs
  • tmux
  • curl
  • alacritty
  • neovim
  • user-dirs
  • editorconfig
  • dircolors
SECRETS_OFF=1 DOTFILES_MINIMAL=1 chezmoi init https://github.com/benmezger/dotfiles.git -S ~/dotfiles

Scripts

All the system dependencies are installed either by running the Makefile (see make help) or by running chezmoi apply. All scripts are located in the scripts directory. Two files are of importance: buildcheck.sh and minimalcheck.sh. The first checks if the scripts is running in a CI environment while the latter checks if the install profile is equal to minimal.

  • fn + cmd - f - opens finder in $HOME
  • cmd + return - opens alacritty

MPC

  • fn + cmd - f1 - mpc play
  • fn + cmd - f2 - mpc pause

  • fn + cmd - f6 - mpc volume +10

Troubleshooting

Chezmoi does not seem to reload the configuration

Run chezmoi init <dotfiles-path> again. This should reload the configuration by copying chezmoi.yaml to $HOME/.config/chezmoi/chezmoi.yaml.

Sourcing env with i3

For some reason, i3 is sourcing .xprofile instead of xinitrc, so for getting Github plugin for the i3status-rust you need to set up a variable in your .xprofile

export I3RS_GITHUB_TOKEN="your-github-token"
