myl7's Config

Layout

• app/: application config
• formatters/: formatter config
• scripts/sync.py: helper that copies files between the host and this repository based on a JSON mapping.
• mappings.json: default mapping from host paths to their locations in the repo used by sync.py.

Syncing Config

scripts/sync.py reads mappings.json and copies each host file into the matching location in the repo. Run it after making changes on the host to capture them in Git.

./scripts/sync.py            # host → repo (default)
./scripts/sync.py --to-host  # repo → host
./scripts/sync.py --dry-run  # preview without writing files

Flags of note:

• --map lets you point to another mapping file.
• --project-root changes the base directory for repo paths (defaults to the current directory).
• --verbose prints each copy action; combine with --dry-run when debugging.

The script only uses the Python standard library, so any recent Python 3 should work.

Adding New Files

1. Place the new config under app/ (or another directory if it makes more sense).
2. Add a mapping entry to mappings.json, pairing the host path with the repo path.
3. Run ./scripts/sync.py --to-host to push the repo copy back onto the system, or the default direction to pull updates from the host.
