Gerard Braad's dotfiles; using Git and Stow

Gerard Braad's dotfiles

using Git and Stow

Do not use this directly, but take parts and learn from it. I share it because I got frustrated about moving a tarball around (and being scared of losing it). This eventually happened when my notebook got stolen... so, this is not an ideal solution for you. Treat it as, "what you see is what it is"...

This forms the basis of my development environment images.

Requirements

CentOS/Fedora

$ dnf install git zsh stow

CentOS 8 (powerline-local)

$ dnf install epel-release python2

Debian/Ubuntu

$ apt-get install git zsh stow

Installation

Automated

$ curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gbraad/dotfiles/master/install.sh | sh

Manual

After setting up the requirements you can use GNU stow to install the dotfiles per application

$ git clone https://github.com/gbraad/dotfiles.git .dotfiles --recursive
$ cd .dotfiles
$ ./install.sh  # optional
$ stow zsh

Compatibility

• Developer environment image
• Google Cloud Platform cloud shell
• Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL2); Bash on Ubuntu on Windows (WSL1)
• Tested on: CentOS7+, Fedora 21+, and Ubuntu 14.04+
• GitPod
• Cygwin64
• Termux
• ...

dotfiles's Issues

tmux improvements

First time system setup

use an environment variable that is checked from the system-setup.sh. if set run: https://gist.github.com/gbraad/5ab92cbf1e1bf53d865de3a3401de01c

Consider adding TPM: Tmux Package Manager

https://github.com/tmux-plugins/tpm

https://github.com/tmux-plugins/list

Conflicting information/wrong prompt when using two instances on WSL2

Due to line:

dotfiles/zsh/.zshrc.d/powerline.zsh

Line 7 in 4f60e59

powerline-daemon -q

there is a single powerline-daemon process running that is shared between instances on WSL2. Therefore, the hostname and user information on one is correct, while all the others are wrong.

Either use powerline-daemon -k or disable the line. I am looking into a better solution.

Modify `tailproxy` to allow passing `--login-server`

While after start you can easily use:

# tailproxy up --login-server=https://headscale.[redacted].ts.net

it would be nice to pick up with either environment variables or parameter.

Note: otherwise a --force-reauth is necessary.

Refactor system install

Simpler approach... just run system_install.sh from install.sh when it is a Fedora system

Add `ssh-keyset` alias

curl https://github.com/gbraad.keys | tee -a ~/.ssh/authorized_keys

vim improvements

Add missing configurations

Tools

• mc
• irssi
• ssh (basic config)
• ipython
• ssh config

Editors

• emacs
• sublime text
• atom
• brackets
• wing ide
• komodo

Add `gh codespace` alias to start `gbraad/devenv`

Convert to Ansible role

Consider to convert this to an Ansible role...

Install on Dreamhost

With some minor changes this easily runs on the Dreamhost Shared environment.

Use the following targets

• zsh
• tmux
• vim
• powerline
• powerline-local
• ranger

Note: since there is no stow you can make the symlinks easily with mc and the Ctrl+X S keystroke. Will look into an alternative.

Tmux

change the comment to use the local powerline install

Ranger

$ pip install --user wheel
$ pip install --user ranger-fm
$ chmod +x ~/.local/bin/ranger

Modify `tailproxy` to work without `screen` when not found

the https://github.com/gbraad-devenv/ubi image does not come with screen (and no way to properly install), so modifying the start-tailproxy script to handle the situation when no screen can be found.

Use `devenv` and `devsys` as a command

To allow the following use:

• devenv start the default based on the host
• devenv fedora to explicitly start a fedora system

Always show hostname for powerline

sed -i 's/"only_if_ssh": true/"only_if_ssh": false/' ~/.config/powerline/themes/shell/__main__.json

Add glow style

Additions

Features

• Installation using Ansible? (executable playbook)

Tools

• ipython
• ssh config

Editors

• emacs
• sublime text
• atom
• brackets
• wing ide

Change to use packages on Fedora

• https://fedoramagazine.org/add-power-terminal-powerline/

Powerline improvements

Todo:

• installation of powerline (currently included as a library; python2.7)
  • Fedora offers a package

allow easy installing

might implement using gnu stow...
