Are you passionate about the terminal and CLI? If so, you've come to the right place, especially if you're a command line enthusiast. Terminal dotfiles are well-known for improving productivity and streamlining everyday tasks. While there are numerous frameworks available to assist with this, many of them come with a steep learning curve and are primarily targeted towards individuals with strong programming skills. Additionally, these frameworks often employ esoteric syntax, requiring an additional effort to fully utilize their features.



Wouldn't it be fantastic if we could effortlessly upload and download our configurations, dotfiles, packages, and customizations to the cloud? This is where HomeSetup comes in. It provides a solution that simplifies the process, allowing you to leverage the power of the cloud seamlessly.



With **HomeSetup**, you can enhance your terminal experience, boost productivity, and customize your shell to suit your preferences all without the complexities often associated with other frameworks. HomeSetup was specifically developed to enhance the command line experience for users. Its primary objective is to provide useful and user-friendly features that expedite daily tasks, such as time tracking, string and file searching, directory navigation, and seamless integration with popular tools like Git, Gradle, Docker, and more.

## Catalina moved from bash to zsh



Starting with the _Catalina_ version of macOS, the default shell has been switched to **Zsh**. Nonetheless, you retain the flexibility to change the default shell back to bash. To accomplish this, you can utilize the following command:



```bash

sudo chsh -s /bin/bash

```



If Apple removes **Bash** from future _macOS_ releases, you can rely on Homebrew's version. The path to the shell may differ. For example:



```bash

brew install bash

sudo chsh -s /usr/local/bin/bash

```



If Homebrew is used, determine the correct Bash path by running:



```bash

brew --prefix bash

```



For terminals like **iTerm2**, you can configure the interpreter path in your _profile settings_. Set the login shell to the desired **Bash** path (e.g., the one provided by Homebrew). After updating the interpreter path, restart the terminal to apply changes.



## Installation



### Operating Systems



- Darwin (macOS)

  - High Sierra and higher

- Linux

  - Ubuntu 16 and higher

  - CentOS 7 and higher

  - Fedora 31 and higher

  - Alpine (jenkins-agent)



> While it's possible to install HomeSetup on **other Linux** distributions and it might work, it's important to note that **there are no guarantees** of its _full functionality or compatibility_.



### Supported Shells



- **Bash**: Everything from 3.2.57(1) and higher.

- **Zsh**: Zsh is planned but not supported yet.



### Terminal configuration



To visualize the Font-Awesome unicode icons, you'll need a compatible nerd font. We recommend using the font we provide with the installation:



[Droid font](assets/fonts/Droid-Sans-Mono-for-Powerline-Nerd-Font-Complete.otf).



**Linux users**: Some terminals already support icons, but if not, you can manually install the font.



**Mac users**: We suggest using one of the terminal profiles listed below to ensure optimal icon display.



You can execute the following commands to install it even before installing HomeSetup:



```bash

curl -L https://github.com/yorevs/homesetup/releases/download/v1.8.14/Droid-Sans-Mono-for-Powerline-Nerd-Font-Complete.zip -o ${TEMP}/Droid-Sans-Mono.zip && unzip -o ${TEMP}/Droid-Sans-Mono.zip -d ${HOME}/.fonts/DroidSan-MonoforPowerlineNerdFontComplete && fc-cache -f

```



**Mac users**: There is one additional step:



```bash

cp -f ${HOME}/.fonts/DroidSan-MonoforPowerlineNerdFontComplete/*.otf ${HOME}/Library/Fonts  && fc-cache -f

```



After HomeSetup installation, the Nerd font will be available at: `${HHS_HOME}/assets/fonts`



#### Terminal App (Darwin)



[HomeSetup Terminal](assets/term-configs/HomeSetup.terminal)



#### iTerm2 App (Darwin)



[HomeSetup iTerm2](assets/term-configs/HomeSetup-iTerm2.json)



When your terminal is set, then you should see something like this:

### Try-it first






Running HomeSetup in a Docker container offers a convenient and isolated environment for testing purposes, ensuring

that your machine remains unaffected during the evaluation process. Use one of the following docker images:



#### amd64



```bash

docker run --rm -it yorevs/hhs-centos:amd64-latest

docker run --rm -it yorevs/hhs-ubuntu:amd64-latest

docker run --rm -it yorevs/hhs-fedora:amd64-latest

docker run --rm -it yorevs/hhs-alpine:amd64-latest

```



#### arm64



```bash

docker run --rm -it yorevs/hhs-centos:arm64-latest

docker run --rm -it yorevs/hhs-ubuntu:arm64-latest

docker run --rm -it yorevs/hhs-fedora:arm64-latest

```



> Alpine is not available for **arm64** architecture.



### Remote installation



This is the recommended installation method. You can install HomeSetup directly from GitHub by executing one of the

following commands:



```bash

curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/yorevs/homesetup/master/install.bash | bash

```



or



```bash

wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/yorevs/homesetup/master/install.bash | bash

```



### Local installation



Clone the HomeSetup repository:



```bash

git clone https://github.com/yorevs/homesetup.git ~/HomeSetup

```



And then install all dotfiles using the following command:



**To install all files at once**



```bash

cd ~/HomeSetup && ./install.bash

```



or



**To install one by one**



```bash

cd ~/HomeSetup && ./install.bash -i

```



Your existing dotfiles (such as .bashrc, .bash_profile, etc.) will be backed up with the **'.orig'** suffix and stored in the **~/.hhs/backup** folder. This ensures that your original dotfiles are safely preserved during the installation process.



Once the installation is completed successfully, you should see the following welcome message:






### Firebase setup



HomeSetup provides the capability to utilize your Firebase account for uploading and downloading your custom files (dotfiles file synchronization) to your _Real-time Database_. To utilize this feature, you must first configure your Google Firebase account. Please check the [Firebase Setup](docs/FIREBASE_SETUP.md) document for instructions.






### Starship Setup



HomeSetup, now, bundles starship prompt. It's has an out-of-the-box configuration. For a full list of features and configurations please checkout the [Starship](https://starship.rs/) website. Please check the [Starship Plugin](docs/handbook/pages/applications/bash/hhs-app/plugins/starship.md) document for mode details about HomeSetup / Starship integration.






### Other integrations



#### ColorLS



HomeSetup, now, integrates the new modern **ls** command [ColorLS](https://github.com/athityakumar/colorls). HomeSetup will not install it, but once you have installed it, it will be used instead of the built-in **ls**.



Please check the [ColorLS Setup](docs/COLOR_LS_SETUP.md) document for more instructions on how to set up ColorLS.



#### FZF



HomeSetup, now, integrates the modern [fuzzy-finder](https://github.com/junegunn/fzf). HomeSetup

will not install it, but once you have installed it, it will be used. We have set the common configurations like the key bindings (Ctrl+T \[find\] and Ctrl+R \[history\]) and auto-completions. Is also integrates with [bat](https://github.com/sharkdp/bat) (extended 'cat') and [fd](https://github.com/sharkdp/fd) (extended 'find').



Please check the [FZF Docs](https://github.com/junegunn/fzf#examples) for more usage examples.



#### Ble-sh



HomeSetup integrates the advanced Bash line editor [ble.sh](https://github.com/akinomyoga/ble.sh). While HomeSetup will not install ble.sh automatically, it supports its usage once you have it installed. Common configurations such as syntax highlighting, auto-suggestions, and Vim modes are set up for enhanced Bash interactive sessions.



Ble.sh extends your shell with powerful features for better command-line editing. To benefit from these, install ble.sh following its instructions and source its initialization script in your Bash profile:



Refer to the [ble.sh](https://github.com/akinomyoga/ble.sh) documentation for detailed configuration options and additional features.



#### Atuin



HomeSetup integrates [Atuin](https://github.com/atuinsh/atuin) for magical shell history sessions. While HomeSetup does not install Atuin automatically, once installed, it will be utilized seamlessly within your shell environment.



We assume a standard Atuin configuration for optimal history management, which includes session tracking, search capabilities, and synchronization across devices. HomeSetup's configuration files are set up to work with Atuin out of the box, capturing shell commands and history efficiently.



Please refer to [Atuin's](https://github.com/atuinsh/atuin) documentation for detailed setup instructions, advanced configuration options, and usage examples.



#### Delta



HomeSetup integrates [Delta](https://github.com/dandavison/delta), a syntax-highlighting pager for git, diff, grep, and blame outputs. After installing Delta, HomeSetup configures your git settings to use Delta as the default pager and adjusts related environment variables to enhance the output of diff, grep, and blame commands with syntax highlighting.



To enable it for your git installation, add the following to your `~/.gitconfig`:



```ini

[core]

  pager = delta



[diff]

  tool = delta



[interactive]

  diffFilter = delta --color-only



[merge]

  conflictstyle = zdiff3



[delta]

  navigate = true

  side-by-side = true

```



This configuration sets Delta as the default pager and enables side-by-side diffs, line numbers, and other decorations. For additional configuration options and usage examples, refer to the [Delta Docs](https://github.com/dandavison/delta#usage).



#### Zoxide



HomeSetup integrates the powerful [Zoxide](https://github.com/ajeetdsouza/zoxide) to provide a smarter `cd` command across all major shells. While HomeSetup does not install Zoxide, it configures the environment for seamless use once Zoxide is installed.



The integration sets up necessary environment variables and aliases for rapid directory navigation. After installing Zoxide, simply restart your shell or source your profile to enable the new configurations.



HomeSetup integrates it's built-in **\_\_hhs_change_dir** with the zoxide `z` command. Once installed, `cd` command automatically leverages `z`. The `z` command will also work.



Please refer to the [Zoxide Docs](https://github.com/ajeetdsouza/zoxide) for more information and advanced usage examples.



#### TLDR



HomeSetup integrates with [TLDR](https://github.com/tldr-pages/tldr), providing community-driven cheatsheets for console commands. While HomeSetup does not install TLDR, once it is installed, the system supports its use. Common configurations such as setting up aliases, automatic updates, and managing cache paths can be customized in your shell configuration.



HomeSetup integrates it's built-in **\_\_hhs_where_am_i** (? command) with the `tldr` command. Once installed, `?` command automatically leverages `tldr`. The `tldr` command will also work.



Examples:



```bash

? grep

? fzf

```



Refer to the [TLDR Documentation](https://github.com/tldr-pages/tldr#readme) for more details on usage and customization.



#### AskAI



HomeSetup now integrates with the AskAI application. You can ask questions about the terminal or any aspect of the HomeSetup project. You can also request assistance in building commands and using HomeSetup easily. You just need to ask!



It's required that you own accounts on GoogleSearch API (for searching the web), DeepL (for translations), and OpenAI. For that is required that you provide the following Api Keys:



1. GOOGLE_API_KEY

2. OPENAI_API_KEY

3. DEEPL_API_KEY



For more information about getting the ApiKeys, please check: [AskAI](https://github.com/yorevs/askai).



## Uninstallation



If you choose to uninstall HomeSetup and restore your old dotfiles, you can do so by issuing the following command in a shell:



`# HomeSetup $ ./uninstall.bash`



The uninstaller will remove all files and folders associated with HomeSetup. The only folder that will remain is the **$HHS_DIR** (~/.hhs typically), whereas your configurations were stored. After a successful uninstallation, it is safe to delete this folder if you no longer need it, **HOWEVER ALL CUSTOM DOTFILES WILL BE GONE**.
