thoughtbot dotfiles
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Requirements
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
Set zsh as your login shell:
|
|
|
|
chsh -s $(which zsh)
|
|
|
|
Install
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
Clone onto your laptop:
|
|
|
|
git clone git@github.com:thoughtbot/dotfiles.git ~/dotfiles
|
|
|
|
(Or, [fork and keep your fork
|
|
updated](http://robots.thoughtbot.com/keeping-a-github-fork-updated)).
|
|
|
|
Install [rcm](https://github.com/thoughtbot/rcm):
|
|
|
|
brew install rcm
|
|
|
|
Install the dotfiles:
|
|
|
|
env RCRC=$HOME/dotfiles/rcrc rcup
|
|
|
|
After the initial installation, you can run `rcup` without the one-time variable
|
|
`RCRC` being set (`rcup` will symlink the repo's `rcrc` to `~/.rcrc` for future
|
|
runs of `rcup`). [See
|
|
example](https://github.com/thoughtbot/dotfiles/blob/master/rcrc).
|
|
|
|
This command will create symlinks for config files in your home directory.
|
|
Setting the `RCRC` environment variable tells `rcup` to use standard
|
|
configuration options:
|
|
|
|
* Exclude the `README.md`, `README-ES.md` and `LICENSE` files, which are part of
|
|
the `dotfiles` repository but do not need to be symlinked in.
|
|
* Give precedence to personal overrides which by default are placed in
|
|
`~/dotfiles-local`
|
|
* Please configure the `rcrc` file if you'd like to make personal
|
|
overrides in a different directory
|
|
|
|
|
|
Update
|
|
------
|
|
|
|
From time to time you should pull down any updates to these dotfiles, and run
|
|
|
|
rcup
|
|
|
|
to link any new files and install new vim plugins. **Note** You _must_ run
|
|
`rcup` after pulling to ensure that all files in plugins are properly installed,
|
|
but you can safely run `rcup` multiple times so update early and update often!
|
|
|
|
Make your own customizations
|
|
----------------------------
|
|
|
|
Create a directory for your personal customizations:
|
|
|
|
mkdir ~/dotfiles-local
|
|
|
|
Put your customizations in `~/dotfiles-local` appended with `.local`:
|
|
|
|
* `~/dotfiles-local/aliases.local`
|
|
* `~/dotfiles-local/git_template.local/*`
|
|
* `~/dotfiles-local/gitconfig.local`
|
|
* `~/dotfiles-local/psqlrc.local` (we supply a blank `.psqlrc.local` to prevent `psql` from
|
|
throwing an error, but you should overwrite the file with your own copy)
|
|
* `~/dotfiles-local/tmux.conf.local`
|
|
* `~/dotfiles-local/vimrc.local`
|
|
* `~/dotfiles-local/vimrc.bundles.local`
|
|
* `~/dotfiles-local/zshrc.local`
|
|
* `~/dotfiles-local/zsh/configs/*`
|
|
|
|
For example, your `~/dotfiles-local/aliases.local` might look like this:
|
|
|
|
# Productivity
|
|
alias todo='$EDITOR ~/.todo'
|
|
|
|
Your `~/dotfiles-local/gitconfig.local` might look like this:
|
|
|
|
[alias]
|
|
l = log --pretty=colored
|
|
[pretty]
|
|
colored = format:%Cred%h%Creset %s %Cgreen(%cr) %C(bold blue)%an%Creset
|
|
[user]
|
|
name = Dan Croak
|
|
email = dan@thoughtbot.com
|
|
|
|
Your `~/dotfiles-local/vimrc.local` might look like this:
|
|
|
|
" Color scheme
|
|
colorscheme github
|
|
highlight NonText guibg=#060606
|
|
highlight Folded guibg=#0A0A0A guifg=#9090D0
|
|
|
|
If you don't wish to install a vim plugin from the default set of vim plugins in
|
|
`.vimrc.bundles`, you can ignore the plugin by calling it out with `UnPlug` in
|
|
your `~/.vimrc.bundles.local`.
|
|
|
|
" Don't install vim-scripts/tComment
|
|
UnPlug 'tComment'
|
|
|
|
`UnPlug` can be used to install your own fork of a plugin or to install a shared
|
|
plugin with different custom options.
|
|
|
|
" Only load vim-coffee-script if a Coffeescript buffer is created
|
|
UnPlug 'vim-coffee-script'
|
|
Plug 'kchmck/vim-coffee-script', { 'for': 'coffee' }
|
|
|
|
" Use a personal fork of vim-run-interactive
|
|
UnPlug 'vim-run-interactive'
|
|
Plug '$HOME/plugins/vim-run-interactive'
|
|
|
|
To extend your `git` hooks, create executable scripts in
|
|
`~/dotfiles-local/git_template.local/hooks/*` files.
|
|
|
|
Your `~/dotfiles-local/zshrc.local` might look like this:
|
|
|
|
# load pyenv if available
|
|
if which pyenv &>/dev/null ; then
|
|
eval "$(pyenv init -)"
|
|
fi
|
|
|
|
Your `~/dotfiles-local/vimrc.bundles.local` might look like this:
|
|
|
|
Plug 'Lokaltog/vim-powerline'
|
|
Plug 'stephenmckinney/vim-solarized-powerline'
|
|
|
|
zsh Configurations
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
Additional zsh configuration can go under the `~/dotfiles-local/zsh/configs` directory. This
|
|
has two special subdirectories: `pre` for files that must be loaded first, and
|
|
`post` for files that must be loaded last.
|
|
|
|
For example, `~/dotfiles-local/zsh/configs/pre/virtualenv` makes use of various shell
|
|
features which may be affected by your settings, so load it first:
|
|
|
|
# Load the virtualenv wrapper
|
|
. /usr/local/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh
|
|
|
|
Setting a key binding can happen in `~/dotfiles-local/zsh/configs/keys`:
|
|
|
|
# Grep anywhere with ^G
|
|
bindkey -s '^G' ' | grep '
|
|
|
|
Some changes, like `chpwd`, must happen in `~/dotfiles-local/zsh/configs/post/chpwd`:
|
|
|
|
# Show the entries in a directory whenever you cd in
|
|
function chpwd {
|
|
ls
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
This directory is handy for combining dotfiles from multiple teams; one team
|
|
can add the `virtualenv` file, another `keys`, and a third `chpwd`.
|
|
|
|
The `~/dotfiles-local/zshrc.local` is loaded after `~/dotfiles-local/zsh/configs`.
|
|
|
|
vim Configurations
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
Similarly to the zsh configuration directory as described above, vim
|
|
automatically loads all files in the `~/dotfiles-local/vim/plugin` directory. This does not
|
|
have the same `pre` or `post` subdirectory support that our `zshrc` has.
|
|
|
|
This is an example `~/dotfiles-local/vim/plugin/c.vim`. It is loaded every time vim starts,
|
|
regardless of the file name:
|
|
|
|
# Indent C programs according to BSD style(9)
|
|
set cinoptions=:0,t0,+4,(4
|
|
autocmd BufNewFile,BufRead *.[ch] setlocal sw=0 ts=8 noet
|
|
|
|

|
|
* [fzf](https://github.com/junegunn/fzf.vim) for fuzzy file/buffer/tag finding.
|
|
* [Rails.vim](https://github.com/tpope/vim-rails) for enhanced navigation of

available.
|
|

|
|
* Adds `post-{checkout,commit,merge}` hooks to re-index your ctags.
|
|
* Adds `pre-commit` and `prepare-commit-msg` stubs that delegate to your local
|
|
config.
|
|
* Adds `trust-bin` alias to append a project's `bin/` directory to `$PATH`.
|
|
|
|
[Ruby](https://www.ruby-lang.org/en/) configuration:
|
|
|
|
* Add trusted binstubs to the `PATH`.
|
|
* Load the ASDF version manager.
|
|
|
