Installing this configuration

Requirements

• Chezmoi
• Archlinux or OSX

Installing

Note: You need to set the env variable SECRETS_OFF=1 to disable 1password. Not passing will make chezmoi fail when connecting to my 1password account ¯_(ツ)_/¯.

The following environment variables can be set to configure chezmoi when applying changed:

• ASK: Set to 1 if you want to enable chezmoi prompt
• SECRETS_OFF: Set to 1 to enable 1Password (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: ASK=1 chezmoi apply to enable prompt or DOTFILES_MINIMAL=1 chezmoi apply for applying the minimal version.

Install with chezmoi

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

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"
