# My Dotfiles
This is my dotfiles repository. You can learn more about dotfiles [here](https://dotfiles.github.io/).
I use Ansible for better flexibility. The main Ansible tasks are located in
[`roles/dotfiles/tasks`](https://github.com/mjnaderi/dotfiles/tree/main/roles/dotfiles/tasks).
## Requirements
```shell
# Install ansible and requirements
$ sudo pacman -S ansible
$ ansible-galaxy install -r requirements.yml
```
## Installation
Copy `.env.sample` to `.env` and configure environment variables. Then run the playbook:
```shell
$ ./install.sh
```
You can pass ansible-playbook arguments to `install.sh`:
```shell
$ ./install.sh --tags gnome
$ ./install.sh --skip-tags fonts,proxy
```
You can find the list of tags in `roles/dotfiles/tasks/main.yml`.
After installing, do not move dotfiles repository. If you did that, install once again.
## Manual Configurations
Here I explain some manual configurations that are hard to automate,
or I was too lazy to automate!
## Wayland
## HiDPI + Full HD Monitor Combination in Gnome
If you have multiple monitors (one HiDPI, and one with lower dpi):
1. Use Wayland
2. Enable the experimental fractional scaling feature of Wayland:
$ gsettings set org.gnome.mutter experimental-features "['scale-monitor-framebuffer']"
3. Open `Settings -> Displays`, and set Scale to your desired value for each monitor.
## HP Printer Setup
```
$ sudo pacman -S cups
$ sudo systemctl enable --now cups
$ sudo pacman -S hplip
$ sudo hp-setup -i
```
## Map Xiao AI Button
References:

- https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Keyboard_input#Identifying_scancodes
My Xiaomi laptop's keyboard has a button for using Xiao AI in Windows,
but it was unusable in Linux. To use this button,
I found its scancode (`0x72`) and mapped it to a linux keycode.
To find the scancode, press the key and look for logs like this in `dmesg` output:
```
[ 8474.796476] atkbd serio0: Unknown key pressed (translated set 2, code 0x72 on isa0060/serio0).
[ 8474.796481] atkbd serio0: Use 'setkeycodes 72 ' to make it known.
```
Open list of linux keycodes and pick a keycode (e.g. `172`: HomePage):
$ cat /usr/include/linux/input-event-codes.h | grep KEY_
### One-time mapping
$ sudo setkeycodes 72 172
### Permanent mapping
Find your keyboard information with `evemu-describe` command (`evemu` package).
Create `/usr/lib/udev/hwdb.d/90-redmi.hwdb` and set mapping for your keyboard:
```
evdev:atkbd:dmi:bvn*:bvr*:bd*:svnTIMI:pnRedmiBookPro15:*
KEYBOARD_KEY_72=172
```
Update `hwdb.bin`:
$ sudo systemd-hwdb update
After any change to `90-redmi.hwdb`, run `sudo touch /usr`.
## Monospace Fonts
My favorite monospace fonts:
- [JetBrains Mono](https://www.jetbrains.com/lp/mono/)
- [Iosevka](https://typeof.net/Iosevka/)
- [Source Code Pro](http://adobe-fonts.github.io/source-code-pro/)
- [Hasklig](https://github.com/i-tu/Hasklig)
- [Cascadia Code](https://github.com/microsoft/cascadia-code)
Use a [nerd font](https://www.nerdfonts.com/) for better compatibility with shell prompts
like Powerlevel10k or Starship. This dotfiles repo installs some nerd fonts.
