README.md

dot/dots Netlify Status

A fast and easy bootstrap for my dotfiles that also acts as a simple management script once installed. Bootstrapping is as simple as:

curl https://dots.00dani.me | zsh

If you're wary about piping scripts into your shell - you should be - then feel free to download the script and check it out first. dots is designed to crash harmlessly rather than run something dangerous if curl is interrupted, however.

curl https://dots.00dani.me > dots
less dots
# reviewing ... looks okay!
zsh dots

When run through either of these methods, dots will install itself, GNU Stow (if not already installed globally), and my configuration for git, vim, and zsh.

By default, packages are installed by dots to ~/dotfiles and then linked into ~ using Stow. Environment variables are available for customising this behaviour.

Environment Variables

  • DOTFILES - the location to clone new packages. Defaults to ~/dotfiles. Don't set it to ~, because that'll just be super confusing.
  • DOTS_SOURCE_PREFIX - a URL prefix that will be prepended to simple package names, like "git" and "vim". Defaults to https://git.00dani.me/dot. You might want to change this to point at your own Git hosting.
  • STOW - which GNU Stow binary to use. Defaults to stow. You probably don't need to change this.
  • HOME - the target directory for linking packages. Probably not a good idea to change this either.
