Setup a new machine without sudo!

Setup a New Machine without sudo!

Download, compile and install commonly used software to a custom path.

Term of Usage

• Star the repo before clone
• File issue if it does not work
• Unstar if you feel it is unmaintained

Usage

# configure setup path, you can put them into your `.bashrc` or `.zshrc`
export ZZROOT=$HOME/app
export PATH=$ZZROOT/bin:$PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ZZROOT/lib:$ZZROOT/lib64:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

# e.g. install git
sh zzgit.sh

NOTE: If the download speed of the machine is too slow, you can put the git.tar.gz (using git as an example) into $ZZROOT/downloads before running the script. For the download link, check the DOWNLOADURL variable in its script; for the exact name of the software, check the NAME variable.

NOTE2: If you compile from source, please make sure that they are compiled using the same gcc version!

NOTE3: If you DO have root privilate on your machine/server, then basic tools such as libtool, ccache, git, etc. might be better installed by OS's package manager. Such as apt in Ubuntu. Only install software that are not available on the OS's packaging system.
