davelens / dotfiles

🏠 is where the ❤️ is.

Installation

Install

git clone [email protected]:davelens/dotfiles.git ~/.dotfiles
cd ~/.dotfiles && ./install.sh

Uninstall

cd ~/.dotfiles && ./uninstall.sh

Configuration

• Your personal info in .dotfiles/gitconfig
• If you use irssi (or plan to): Your desired servers, channels, highlights and aliases in .dotfiles/irssi/config
• The take_screenshot command in .dotfiles/bash/macos uploads a screenshot to my webspace and puts the link in my clipboard. If you want to use this as well, just replace my SSH-host with your own.

macOS defaults

I use an abundant number of macOS setting overrides. These are subjective, so some might seem odd, strange or unwanted for you. That is why it requires a separate install instruction. A big credit here should be given to @mathiasbynens, as he keeps maintaining his list for every major macOS release. If you want to give it a go, just copy-paste the line below in your shell. Use at your own discretion though, there is no reset:

source ~/.dotfiles/macos/defaults-overrides

Tmux statusline

Powerline symbols

If you're a tmux + iTerm2 user, you'll want to set a non-ASCII text custom font to display powerline symbols in tmux's status bar. Download such a font here, then in your ITerm2 profile settings in the Text tab, look for Use a different font for non-ASCII text and select the desired font in the dropdown. I haven't tried this in other terminals yet, so YMMV.

"Segments"

My tmux config now parses small bits of information to the left of the date in the status-right section. They are inspired by and/or stolen from the (now unmaintained) tmux-powerline repo:

• Laptop battery status. Done with richo/battery
• Unread e-mail count. Caveats:
  • Reads user/pass from your .netrc.
  • You need to configure which servers to check here.
• Current track playing in Spotify. Taken from jdxcode/tmux-spotify-info

No vimrc?

In april 2020 I finally took the proper time to move my vim setup to a separate repository, to be found here.

dotfiles's Issues

Testing

Review/Make my dev + devx commands smarter

Replace vim-snipmate with UltiSnips

Explore what custom bindings and/or motions would be useful for my rails projections.

• <leader>fac to jump to a related spec/factories/*.rb file?
• <leader>dec to jump to a related app/decorators/*.rb file?
• Find out if the above can be made more generic with a prefix indicating a "gem projection" (<leader>gf and <leader>gd?)

Check out Lightline to potentially replace vim-airline.

bin/rails/bootstrap: Review bundler installation fallback

Check if I can generalise ~/.rbenv/versions/2.5.7/lib/ruby/gems/2.5.0/gems/bundler-2.0.2/ to check for physical bundler installation rather than depending on the rbenv shim.
