# dotfiles
:wrench: dotfiles for ubuntu
## Installation
:warning: Backup your current dotfiles, otherwise launching the installation script _will override them_!
```bash
git clone https://github.com/devmatteini/dotfiles.git && cd dotfiles && ./bootstrap.sh
```
The [`bootstrap.sh`](bootstrap.sh) script execute:
1. [bootstrap/file_system.sh](bootstrap/file_system.sh) to create common directories
2. [bootstrap/configs.sh](bootstrap/configs.sh) to create symlinks to home and config files
3. [bootstrap/system-configs.sh](bootstrap/system-configs.sh) to create symlinks for system configs
4. [bootstrap/dependencies.sh](bootstrap/dependencies.sh) to install basic dependencies
5. [bootstrap/gnome-settings.sh](bootstrap/gnome-settings.sh) to configure GNOME settings
### Ubuntu autoinstall
1. Boot into Live Ubuntu image
2. Configure Language, Accessibility, Keyboard, Network and then select **Try Ubuntu**
3. Verify that the system works as expected
4. Download and run the [`ubuntu-autoinstall.sh`](bootstrap/ubuntu-autoinstall.sh) script to generate the [configuration file](https://canonical-subiquity.readthedocs-hosted.com/en/latest/reference/autoinstall-reference.html)
```bash
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/devmatteini/dotfiles/refs/heads/main/bootstrap/ubuntu-autoinstall.sh
chmod +x ubuntu-autoinstall.sh
./ubuntu-autoinstall.sh
```
5. Open **Install Ubuntu** app and proceed to **Type of installation** section
6. Select **Automated Install** and paste the configuration file URI from the script output
7. Wait for validation, review the generated file and proceed with the installation
## Shell
Currently using [`zsh`](https://www.zsh.org/).
You can customize it by editing [`configs/zsh`](configs/zsh/) files.
Alternatively you can use [`configs/bash`](configs/bash/).
## Prompt
Currently using [`starship`](https://github.com/starship/starship/).
You can customize it by editing [`configs/starship.toml`](configs/starship.toml).
By default if starship is not installed basic fallback prompt is available for both `bash` and `zsh`.
## Terminal Emulator
Currently using [`WezTerm`](https://wezfurlong.org/wezterm/index.html).
You can customize it by editing [`configs/wezterm/wezterm.lua`](configs/wezterm/wezterm.lua).
Alternatively you can use `gnome-terminal` and load its configuration by running:
```bash
./packages/gnome-terminal configs/gnome-terminal.dconf
```
To export a new configuration follow [this article](https://gist.github.com/devmatteini/968981d95fd203905f7618ce67647e83) instructions.
## Packages
If you didn't run the `bootstrap.sh` script, run:
```bash
./bootstrap/file_system.sh
./bootstrap/dependencies.sh
```
To install packages you can find scripts in [`packages/`](packages/).
