About The Project #
Unless you are constantly setting up new computers for development, it can often be a frustrating task. The goal of this repo is to automate that process and serve as an easy way to remember small steps that would otherwise likely be forgotten. Moreover, there are also scripts that can help you whether it's ssh'ing into a new machine and quickly setting up vim or installing fonts into a docker image, there are lots of tools to help.
Getting Started #
This guide explains how to set up your Angular project to begin using ng-material-plus. It includes information on prerequisites, installation, and optionally displaying a sample component in your application to verify your setup.
Prerequisites #
Install Xcode from https://developer.apple.com/xcode/. The app store doesn't work well and you can't install it from brew.
Update Urls
- install/brew.sh
- nvm - ensure the link is pointing to the most recent version
- misc/vbox.sh
- virtualbox extension pack - ensure the link is pointing to the most recent version
Setup a New Machine #
- Clone the repository into your home folder.
cd $HOME git clone https://github.com/tommyc38/dotfiles.git
- There are a few scripts that may contain outdated packages. Notes are in the scripts below with links.
Follow the links and check for the most recent versions and update the scripts with the latest package download URLs.
- install/brew.sh
- nvm
- install/vagrant.sh
- virtualbox extension pack
- install/fonts.sh
- nerd fonts url
- install/brew.sh
Post Setup #
In order to run bin/vault you will need to give full access to whatever programs you may use to run it
- Examples: Terminal, Webstorm, iTerm, Visual Studio Code, etc.
Moreover, to finish the install we need to symlink our decrypted vault files to the home directory.
- Go into Settings/Privacy.
- Click Developer Tools on the left pane.
- Add your apps.
- Open your terminal and run:
vault - Input your encryption/decryption password (1 for each file)
- Now symlink the contents
If you don't adjust these settings you will get a popup telling you to move the app to the trash and it won't execute.
Once Webstorm is installed you will need to sync your settings from the cloud and install the command line executable to be able to run commands:
-
Open a file:
webstorm file.txt -
Launch a project:
open -na Webstorm.app projectDir
Sym-linking Configuration Files #
The symlink.sh script will symlink all configuration files to their respective target directories in a non-destructive
way. If it finds matching files at the symlink target location, it will move those files to a backup directory. To see what file
operations will be made without file execution pass the -d|--dry-run option. To include vim pass the -v|--include-vim
option. To include karabiner pass the -k|--include-karabiner option. For more details and options
run: symlink.sh --help.
