Dotfiles

My dotfiles to automate the setup of a new MacOS installation.

Getting Started

xcode-select --install
git clone https://github.com/rahulpatel/dotfiles.git ~/.dotfiles
cd ~/.dotfiles
./init.sh

How does this work?

./init.sh manually calls each tools init.sh file

• This is to setup tools in a certain order
• All *.symlink files are automatically symlinked to ~/.<filename>
  • The .symlink extension is removed when symlinking

Once complete, all applications and shell environment will be setup.

When opening a new terminal, the .zshrc file will:

• Source $HOME/.localrc if it exists
• Source all config.sh files from this repo
• Source all completion.sh files from this repo
• Source all alias.sh files from this repo
• Setup and apply oh-my-zsh

Scripts

Adding a new init script

1. Create a folder with the name of the tool
2. Copy and paste templates/init.sh into the folder you created
3. Write the required commands in the main() function of the script
4. Add a call to the script to the root /init.sh script

Adding a new config script

1. Create a folder with the name of the tool
2. Copy and paste templates/config.sh into the folder you created
3. Add the relevant configuration into the config.sh file

The newly created config.sh will be automatically loaded by .zshrc.

Adding a new completion script

1. Create a folder with the name of the tool
2. Copy and paste templates/completion.sh into the folder you created
3. Add the relevant completion commands into the completion.sh file

The newly created completion.sh will be automatically loaded by .zshrc.

Adding a new alias script

1. Create a folder with the name of the tool
2. Copy and paste templates/alias.zsh into the folder you created
3. Add the relevant aliases into the alias.zsh file

The newly created alias.zsh will be automatically loaded by .zshrc.
