## General information

This is a collection of setup scripts, configuration files and notes that I find useful for my daily workflow and my choice of tools and environments.

## Installation

### Development utilities

This will install and set up terminal programs like vim, zsh, tmux and some more tools.

When setting up a vanilla system (Debian based, i.e. Ubuntu 14.04 and 16.04 as well as Stretch), I do:

    git clone --recursive https://github.com/pylipp/dotfiles ~/.files

    bash ~/.files/setup/basic_setup.bash

### Desktop environment

My DE of choice is i3. After some experiments, I decided to strive for a minimalistic configuration using package-built-in tools (i3status, i3lock). Additional scripts for system interaction (screen locking, shutdown, volume control, sensor information) can be found in `i3/`.

For installation, run

    bash ~/.files/setup/setup_i3.bash

## Programs and tools

Run

    bash ~/.files/setup/install_core_utils.bash

See `setup/` for specific installation scripts.

Functionality | Program name | Notes

------------- | ------------ | -----

Window manager | `i3` | using `i3status`, `i3lock` and additional scripts in `i3/`

Terminal | `st` | solarized color scheme

Shell | `bash` | forked theme from `liquidprompt`

Terminal multiplexer | `tmux` | plugins loaded by `tpm`

VCS | `git` | additionally using `hub` for managing GitHub workflows from the CL and `tig` for a git-log TUI. Improved diff using `delta`

Editor | `vim` | built from source, see [vim/startup](https://github.com/pylipp/dotfiles/tree/master/vim/startup) for personal settings

Python development | [`virtualenvwrapper` fork](https://github.com/pylipp/virtualenvwrapper/tree/use-venv-module) |

Python app managment | [`pipx`](https://pipxproject.github.io/pipx/)

Python REPL | `ptpython` | vi-like editing; usually installing it in venvs

Python Debugger | `pudb` | vi-like editing; usually installing it in venvs

Auto environment loading | `direnv` | handy for activating venvs

Webbrowser | `qutebrowser` | vi-like key bindings

PDF reader | `zathura` |

In-file search | `ripgrep` |

Command-line utility | `fzf` |

Tex utility | `latexmk` |

Time tracking | `watson` |

Backup | `borg`

Pager | `bat`

File finder | `fd`

Image Viewer | `feh`

JSON processing | `jq`

## TODOs

Goal: Have distribution-agnostic system management (program configuration, installation and maintenance)

### Future development

Requirement | Specification

--- | ---

It is straightforward to set up a new system. | A setup routine exists.

It is straightforward to update the system. | An update routine exists.

Setting up the system is distribution-agnostic. | The setup routine is verified in a containerized environment.
