dotfiles

I'm still modifying these files, but will only push stable versions here.

Installation

Clone this repo (or your own fork!) to your home directory (/home/username).

$ cd ~
$ git clone https://github.com/flip1995/dotfiles.git

Now you only have to run ./install. It's tested on the latest Arch-Linux Version. If you're using another system, please check the script before running.

If you have root access on your machine and want the dotfiles to apply also when you're working as root, then run sudo ./install_root.

CAUTION: Read the install_root script carefully before running! It creates symlinks in your root directory and executes some other commands as root, that you may or may not want to be executed.

Custom Fonts

You'll may have to use a custom font for Airline to look nice. (Seeing weird symbols? This is why!). See here: https://github.com/Lokaltog/powerline-fonts. I'm currently using sourcecode pro.

The scripts (./install and ./install_root) will install the fonts automatically. You only have to select them through your terminal.


Vim

Installing Plugins

Plugins are listed in vimrc.bundles. After running one of the install scripts all plugins (inclusive Vundle) should be installed.

To install them manually you'll need Vundle. You can get Vundle by cloning it into the ~/.vim/bundle directory:

$ git clone https://github.com/VundleVim/Vundle.vim.git $HOME/.vim/bundle/Vundle.vim

To install the plugins with Vundle open vim ($ vim) and type :PluginInstall. Running the command

$ vim -u $HOME/.vimrc.bundles +PluginInstall +qa

will do the trick too. Don't forget to restart vim after installing plugins.


Tmux

Tmux is a terminal multiplexer. On most systems you can install it with your package manager. On Arch for example with:

$ sudo pacman -S tmux

Spotify

In order to use the Spotify integration, make sure to install spotifyd and then log in with:

secret-tool store --label="spotify-keyring" application rust-keyring service spotifyd username <username>

Also run make install in spotify-cli-linux.


Color schemes

I'm using color schemes for gVim, tmux (modified) and the gnome terminal (modified) from different sources.

To install the terminal color scheme execute the command source ~/dotfiles/termColorScheme.sh and restart your terminal. With the settings of the dotfiles this three schemes will fit in each other perfectly!
