# My dotfiles
|
|
 
|
|
|
|
These are my personal dotfiles for configuring my workstation. I use
|
|
[chezmoi](https://www.gnu.org/software/stow/) to manage them, as it just makes managing it all way more convenient, and allows me to setup everything in one command.
|
|
them to the right place.
|
|
|
|
This configuration uses git submodules in order to integrate my Emacs config in a separate repository, so make sure to
|
|
initialize them before trying to install it (installation instructions
|
|
below).
|
|
|
|
# Installing
|
|
|
|
You could install it on any Linux distribution that you want, but I
|
|
recommend Arch Linux as there is a file containing a list of required
|
|
packages installable via pacman or your favorite AUR helper.
|
|
|
|
You do require chezmoi installed on your system (you can find the installation instructions [here](https://www.chezmoi.io/install/))
|
|
- Clone the config in your home directory
|
|
`chezmoi init git@github.com:nezia1/dotfiles.git`
|
|
- Get into your new chezmoi directory with `chezmoi cd`
|
|
- Initialize submodules with `git submodule update --init`
|
|
- If you\'re using Arch Linux, install the packages with
|
|
`sudo pacman < arch_packages` or using your favorite AUR helper
|
|
- `fisher update` to install fish plugins
|
|
|
|
# Theme
|
|
|
|
I use [catppuccin](https://github.com/catppuccin/catppuccin) as my theme
|
|
(the mocha variant). I love the soothing pastel colors. The GTK theme
|
|
and the Qt5 theme are also configured to be used with supported
|
|
applications.
|
|
|
|
# Shell setup
|
|
|
|
I use [fish](https://github.com/fish-shell/fish-shell) as my interactive
|
|
shell, but I still keep [bash](https://www.gnu.org/software/bash/) as my
|
|
non-interactive shell for compatibility purposes, as some pieces of
|
|
software that I use require the user to have a POSIX compliant shell.
|
|
This is why I have a bash module, where I setup everything that I want
|
|
to have non-interactively and interactively and if running
|
|
interactively, have it start a fish session.
|
|
|
|
It also keeps variables set in .profile, since we\'re starting fish from
|
|
bash.

# Services and timers
|
|
|
|
The user-services module contains different systemd daemons and timers
|
|
that you might or might not need depending on your specific use-case:
|
|
|
|
- sync: a systemd timer that synchronizes my org directory using
|
|
[rclone](https://rclone.org/) to a remote called drive (runs every 5
|
|
minutes)
