#+TITLE: my dotfiles

|

|
||
These are my personal dotfiles for configuring my workstation. I use [[https://www.gnu.org/software/stow/][stow]] to manage them, hence why everything is under its own module, so I can use ~stow */~ to symlink them to the right place.
|
||
|
||
This configuration uses git submodules in order to pull some plugins and 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.
|
||
|
||
- Clone the config in your home directory ~git clone git@github.com:nezia1/dotfiles.git ~/.dotfiles~
|
||
- Initialize submodules with ~git submodule update --init~
|
||
- If you're using Arch Linux, install the packages with ~sudo pacman -S < packages~ or using your favorite AUR helper
|
||
- ~stow */~ to symlink everything to the right place
|
||
|
||
* Theme
|
||
I use [[https://github.com/catppuccin/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 [[https://github.com/fish-shell/fish-shell][fish]] as my interactive shell, but I still keep [[https://www.gnu.org/software/bash/][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.
|
||
* Software used
|
||
- Operating system: [[https://archlinux.org/][Arch Linux]]
|

|

Hyprland is configured to use a random wallpaper from the ~$HOME/.dotfiles~ directory, so you need to have your wallpapers in it.
|
||
|
||
* 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 [[https://rclone.org/][rclone]] to a remote called drive (runs every 5 minutes)
