title

A collection of config files I use on a daily basis on multiple hosts. My OS of choice is Arch Linux, and my dotfiles are managed by Make and Stow.

Companion repos for these dotfiles:

Installation

Warning: As with most dotfiles, cherry-picking configs might be a better choice than attempting to run the full install steps. There are dragons in there.

First of this repo needs to be cloned, and assuming you are running Arch Linux calling make install should in theory setup a fresh system, but I haven't tested this rule in a while so it probably needs some attention.

git clone https://github.com/roosta/etc && cd etc && make install

git needs to be installed prior to the setup.

Main Makefile rules

I list the basics here, there are a bunch of rules and they are in constant flux, for details on each see the Makefile.

default

prerequisites: links update i3 rofi post-install

Main rule run on a daily basis. Re-links, updates repos, generate configs. This is my goto and my daily routine is pulling any updates, then calling make with no arguments.

update

prerequisites: update-zsh-plugins update-libs update-spacemacs update-tmux update-vim post-install

Runs through the update routine. I keep a bunch of 'lib' repos that isn't part of a package manager updated on my system. Located in ~/lib by default and the source for these libs are lib_repositories.txt which is just a flat file with the repository URL.

I made a helper script for this process that either clones a repo or pulls if it is already present See the git_update.sh script for details.

links

prerequisites link-conf link-misc link-local post-install

Links all the config files using Stow. If you are unfamiliar with stow, have a look at the manual, but the concept is fairly straightforward. All config is kept in ./conf, and each program gets it's own folder. Contents in this folder mirror where you want the config placed with your home(~) as the root.

So for example, my .vimrc I want linked to my home root ~/.vimrc, so its placed in the vim folder with no additional folder structure inside. Another example would be my termite config which should be linked to: ~/.config/termite/config so I mirror that folder structure in conf/qermite/.config/termite/config where conf/termite would correspond to home root.

install

prerequisites: user-fs install-pacaur install-packages install-aur-packages save-originals init-spacemacs set-shell clone-source i3 rofi init-tmux links post-install

This is the fragile install rule, that sets up a fresh system. It basically runs through the lot, and additionally installs packages, and clones various repos.

min

prerequisites: min-install save-originals user-fs update-libs set-shell update-zsh-plugins min-links init-vim init-tmux

Setup a minimal system. I use this if I spin up a VM or something and just want some basic conf present like vimrc, tmux and etc.
