# Dot Files



My collection of dotfiles + a [bootstrapping](./bootstrap.py) script



* **Cross Platform** - Meant to work on Linux (Mint) _and_ Windows

* **Linking** - Symlinks over copying

* **Public** - Private keys and licenses are separate (for now... keeping an eye on git-crypt)

* **Automatic** - `python bootstrap.py` sets up everything. `--verify-only` only verifies, and is run every time I open a terminal

* **Multi-environment** - All configs have defaults, though special configs with suffix `##XXX` can be chosen with priority using `--environment=XXX` flag

Supports:





  git

  sublime text

  typora




as well as [asdf](https://github.com/asdf-vm/asdf), [Z](https://github.com/rupa/z), [flameshot](https://flameshot.org/), [Discord](https://discord.com), [ffmpeg](https://ffmpeg.org/), [Insomnia](https://insomnia.rest/), [Krita](https://krita.org/en/), [OBS](https://obsproject.com/), [Seafile](https://www.seafile.com/en/home/), [Promnesia](https://github.com/karlicoss/promnesia), and a ton more,,,



## Installation

### Linux Installation

```bash

cd ~

sudo apt update && sudo apt install git

git clone https://github.com/Cobertos/dotfiles.git

cd dotfiles

git submodule init

git submodule update # For ASDF and Z

python3 bootstrap.py # Make sure to use the right --environment=XXX

# https://github.com/danhper/asdf-python

# https://github.com/pyenv/pyenv/wiki/Common-build-problems

asdf plugin add python

sudo apt-get install -y build-essential libssl-dev zlib1g-dev libbz2-dev libreadline-dev libsqlite3-dev wget curl llvm libncurses5-dev libncursesw5-dev xz-utils tk-dev libffi-dev liblzma-dev python-openssl git

asdf install python latest:3.8

asdf global python 3.8.7

# https://github.com/asdf-vm/asdf-nodejs

asdf plugin add nodejs

bash -c '${ASDF_DATA_DIR:=$HOME/.asdf}/plugins/nodejs/bin/import-release-team-keyring'

asdf install nodejs lts

asdf global nodejs 14.15.4

pip install requests

python bootstrap.py # To get all node and python dependencies



# TODO: If you have no system python in your OS, you will probably want to get one

# or install asdf manually (source the correct file into your terminal first)

```



### Windows Native Installation using Git Bash



This no longer works, but should I go back to Windows I'll have to update. The steps to get this to work on Windows will be something like



* Find a replacement for asdf on Windows

  * The current code will work with plain old pyenv and nvm, so you could always install those manually first

* Fix all issues with \\ and / paths

* Find comparable packages in chocolatey, or use Ninite or something



The old installation:



* [Install chocolatey](https://chocolatey.org/docs/installation)

  * I would like to automate this but there's a lot of overhead with Python)

* `choco install ./packages.config`

* Install `pyenv` by downloading and extracting at the correct location and setting up variables

* Install Python 3.6+

* `python bootstrap.py`

  * Make sure to use the right `--environment=XXX`!

* You will need to manually install nvm for Windows for nodejs stuff



## Installation Part 2 (everything that I have yet to automate)

* Install Firefox

  * Login to Firefox

  * Disable DNS over HTTPS (or figure out a way to get hosts file working without it)

  * Setup the search engine aliases for `@google`, `@gh` switch to Startpage for default engine

  * Login to InoReader

  * Login to Mangools

  * Migrate any Tampermonkey scripts (or put them in here or something)

* Sublime

  * Install package control to recognize symlinked packages

  * Install license and license for FTP

  * Setup TabNine (TabNine::Config then paste key for TabNine Local)

* Spotify

  * Toggle download playlists

* Install Unity Hub

* Blender is installed separately (managing multiple Blender versions)

* Setup OBS to record into Seafile (save these prefs)

* Setup Unity defaults (External editor and stuff) (would be nice to capture these prefs)

* Hide excess folders in explorer/nemo, like Picture, Videos, etc

* Docker (removal of old and getting new)

* Migrate from old computer

  * Insomnia configs (all the sqlite databases in Insomnia's home directory)

  * .aws keys

  * .ssh keys

  * .npmrc keys

  * Any environment variables holding keys

  * Firefox/Chrome/wherever history

* Setup filesystem favorites



### Linux specific manually

* Configure Linux Mint Desktop

  * Change the theme to Dark (for Window borders, controls, and desktop)

  * Change wallpapers/backgrouns to the folder that has them all in it

  * Add a panel to every monitor, without grouped list applet merging and with window titles

  * Change the Linux Mint start menu icon

* Install NVIDIA and eGPU drivers and all the work that goes into that

  * `sudo apt install nvidia-driver-460`

  * Disable secure boot and thunderbolt security

  * Add the XOrg configuration, and double check the PCIe Bus IDs

  * Consider working on HotPlug support https://jpamills.wordpress.com/2017/03/18/hotplug-support-for-egpu-on-linux/



### Windows specific manually

* Windows settings

  * Lockscreen picture

  * Uninstall unwanted default apps

  * Connect phone to My Phone

  * Login to other Microsoft related products (Office)

  * Install office

  * Set surface pen pressure to like 8-9?

  * Configure taskbar preferences (non grouping etc)

  * Remove certain pins from the taskbar

  * Make backspace faster/proper speed

  * Remove OneDrive

  * Rename computer

  * Install Windows App Store apps (including Paint.NET and Spotify)



## Future Support

* Voicemeeter Banana (Linux / Ubuntu equivalent?)

* Setup correct file associations (for .xml, .html, etc...)

* VLC Plugins

* Audacity and configurations

* Make sure that Chrome/Firefox syncs settings for refined GitHub (looks like it worked)

* /etc/hosts and C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts or wherever it is in Windows

* Seafile notifications disabling?

* Configure keybindings (like for flameshot)

* Add a little indicator to PS1 when dotfiles is out of date

* Make `findcode` better/nicer. Can we have some sort of indexing search?

* Put Userscripts for Tampermonkey in here (or maybe submodule? would be nice to use their WebDAV interface)

* Switch pip over to use the --user flag, or make it an option? Not sure what pipx needs?



### Won't Support

* Pulling in z's config, as it should honeslty be separate per-machine, due to file path differences, and it can contain things I don't want public



## Windows TODOs

* Re-evaluate if ConEmu needs to be used at all

* Installing chocolatey packages

* A separate packages.config for different workflows

* Readd all the windows registry, theme stuff, and paint.NET

  * The ansible branch had some extras for screen rotation disable and removing Python execution aliases on Windows

  * The ansible branch also solves choco git install flags better, and by default asks for WSL to be installed (which IMO is smarter)

* Windows PowerTools?

* Consider removing WavesMaxxAudio to stop popup and background processing

  * https://github.com/GrzegorzKozub/xps

  * https://github.com/kevinshroff/KSMRD-Modded-Realtek-Audio-Drivers

* Consider applying filter keys faster repeats fix

  * https://superuser.com/questions/1058474/increase-keyboard-repeat-rate-beyond-control-panel-limits-in-windows-10

  * This seems to be a Windows 10/Dell Latitude issue. I dont have this issue on this computer in Linux Mint...

* Disable Intel AMT
