This repository contains most of my configuration for (primarily) *nix based systems. The configs are distribution agnostic, but do on occasion use recent features which might not be available in, for example, debian stable.
Run ./scripts/link.py to link all configs to the home directory of the current user. Running this command will NOT
immediately make any changes, it will instead generate a shell script that makes the desired changes, so you can verify
these actions before executing them. The goal of this script is to always be able to get to the desired state in a
single pass.
By default it will link foo to ~/.foo. This can be changed by modifying scripts/config. Each key in this config
refers to a source path, relative to the repository.
The target key of a config entry is a comma-separated list of target paths, relative to the home directory. The
default is .${path}.
The action key of a config entry dictates what to do for this entry:
-
linkis the default, and means create a link from the target path(s) to the file/directory. -
skipmeans don’t link, and don’t recurse if it’s a directory. -
recursecan only be used on directories, and it means skip linking the directory itself, and instead process all items in the directory. This can be useful when you want to add to an existing directory (eg~/.config), instead of replacing it entirely.
