dotfiles

This repo holds configuration files for tooling I use regularly while working on MacOS

Neovim and some other parts of the setup are also used on Windows.

Usage

1. be sure you have git installed

git --version

2. clone the repo

git clone git@github.com:radlinskii/dotfiles.git

3. once inside the repo's folder run the install script

./scripts/install.sh

To only run parts of install.sh responsible for specific configurations pass flags to it:

• for linking config files run it with flag -l or --link.
• to only configure MacOS specific settings run it with flag -m or --mac.
• to only install Homebrew packages run it with flag -b or --brew.
• to install oh-my-zsh use -o or --omz flag.

Example usage: ./scripts/install.sh -l -b

4. manually adjust the git config

git config --global user.name "Your Name"
git config --global user.email "Your Email"
git config --global core.excludesfile ~/.gitignore_global
git config --global init.defaultBranch main
git config --global pull.rebase true
git config --global push.autoSetupRemote true

Add the following to ~/.gitconfig:

[diff]
    tool = nvimdiff
[difftool]
    prompt = false
[difftool "nvimdiff"]
    cmd = "nvim -d \"$LOCAL\" \"$REMOTE\""
[merge]
    tool = nvimdiff
[mergetool]
    prompt = true
[mergetool "nvimdiff"]
    cmd = "nvim -d \"$LOCAL\" \"$REMOTE\" \"$MERGED\" -c 'wincmd w' -c 'wincmd J'"

5. put local-machine-specific shell configuration and secret env vars in ~/.local_zshrc.sh

This file is sourced by .zshrc and should contain secrets (API keys, tokens) and machine-specific configuration that should not be shared publicly.

nvim ~/.local_zshrc.sh

6. Even more tooling

Other tools to install via the Brewfile using brew bundle:

brew bundle install --file ~/.dotfiles/Brewfile

and some need to be installed via npm:

npm install -g eslint_d

Other environments to setup:

node & npm, go, rust, and python.

7. lazygit setup within nvim using lazygit.nvim might require neovim-remote

Setting up nvr might require assigning environment variable NVIM_LISTEN_ADDRESS. Value could be localhost:6789 as it is the default value that nvr tries to connect to.
