# dotfiles

uses [chezmoi](https://www.chezmoi.io/) to manage dotfiles and [homebrew](https://brew.sh/)/nix's [home-manager](https://github.com/nix-community/home-manager) to manage packages

## setup

### macos

prereqs:

- homebrew

- chezmoi

initalize chezmoi to install and manage dotfiles

```

chezmoi init --apply ryanlau

```

### non-macos

install [nix](https://nixos.org/) using the [determinate nix installer](https://determinate.systems/nix-installer/)

```sh

curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf -L https://install.determinate.systems/nix | sh -s -- install --no-confirm

```

temporarily use chezmoi to fetch these dotfiles, dotfiles are permanently installed

```sh

nix run nixpkgs#chezmoi -- init ryanlau --apply --exclude=scripts

```

install home-manager and use it to permanently install packages/programs including chezmoi

```sh

nix run home-manager/master -- switch

```

run the chezmoi scripts that were ignored earlier 

```sh

chezmoi apply

```

## todo

- [ ] add configs for other programs

- [ ] use [nix-darwin](https://github.com/LnL7/nix-darwin) to manage configuration for macos

- [ ] use home-manager instead of chezmoi to manage configuration files

- [ ] write docs explaining purpose of every file
