I have created an interactive installation script, that is probably only useful for myself during setting up a new Linux environment. An easy way of setting up my dotfile system is to use curl or wget to fetch the install script and execute it. Warning: selecting 'replace' will overwrite old files, see below for more information.
bash <(curl -sL sampo.website/install-dotfiles.sh)Or using wget
bash <(wget -qO - sampo.website/install-dotfiles.sh)If you select 'clone', it just clones this repository. With 'replace' it creates a bare git repository in ~/.dotfiles/ and clones this repository there and checkout all the files in this repository into the home directory of the user. This will overwrite all previous files with same paths than in repository. Make sure to backup beforehand as there is no undo or automatic backups, or just clone the repository and do copying manually.
When environment variable SAMPORAPELI_DOTFILES_UNATTENDED_INSTALL is set to true, the installation script will automatically install dotfiles and replace the current configuration without any confirmation.
Requires bash, curl, envsubst and git to be available.
SAMPORAPELI_DOTFILES_UNATTENDED_INSTALL=true bash <(curl -sL sampo.website/install-dotfiles.sh)- The "
curl -sL https://url/script.sh | bash" way does not currently work with the install script as it's interactive. However,bash -c "$(curl -sL sampo.website/install-dotfiles.sh)"will work. - The actual file location is https://raw.githubusercontent.com/samporapeli/dotfiles/main/Documents/install-dotfiles.sh and sampo.website has a redirect to that location.
This might be a good idea if you only want some parts of the configuration.
- Clone this repository, e. g.
git clone https://github.com/samporapeli/dotfiles.git - In repository directory, load git submodules:
git submodule init && git submodule update - Copy/link files from repository to needed locations in home directory.
There's a small list of document editing related packages at ~/Documents/document-packages.apt.txt including a full texlive install for creating documents using Latex. This is not included in the base install, as the size of the installation is rather big. Install packages from file:
sudo apt install $(tr '\n' ' ' < ~/Documents/document-packages.apt.txt)TODO: add helper function for this and use it here and in the install script.
The nide (Neovim IDE) alias starts Neovim with LSP and other tools configured.
Alias e starts nvim with a lighter configuration.
~/.vim/vimrc is loaded in ~/.config/nvim/init.lua, which allows using the same core configuration with vim and nvim, e.g. when working with external machines.
~/.config/nvim/lua/samporapeli/config/
Activate IDE-like features such as LSP and Copilot plugins.
Inteded to be used with nide alias, which sets the variable automatically for just that session.
Enable patched font features, i.e., icons (Powerline, dev icons, etc.).
No direct alias (like nide). Add export NVIM_ICON_FONT=1 to ~/.device.profile when a nerd patched font (Hack) is installed. Icons are disabled by default for compatibility between systems.
Install or update nvm: install-nvm
As loading nvm in .zshrc increases shell startup time, I decided to load nvm manually when needed: . load-nvm (or source load-nvm)
~/.config/ephemeral contains docker image definitions for throwaway container creation.
Build a container image:
docker build -t ephemeral-tumbleweed ~/.config/ephemeral/tumbleweed/Create a new temporary container and launch a shell:
docker run -it --rm ephemeral-tumbleweedThe container will be removed after exiting (--rm), no data is retained.
The command :ephemeral works as a shorthand for the above mentioned docker commands.
Run :ephemeral --help for details.
This is the place for most of my custom scripts. Some are so simple that they could as well be aliases, while some are a bit more complicated. This is added to $PATH, so it is super easy to create new executables.
Some useful functions that can be used in other scripts.
Plasma + bspwm
Plasma but bspwm instead of kwin. picom as a compositor.
This repository contains some configuration files related to my second computer running Arch Linux and i3wm.
There is Windows specific configuration in .windows-config directory, currently only configuration file for Windows Terminal.
