Ubuntu Bootstrap

This repository contains a script that sets up a new Ubuntu System, as it installs many useful packages, applications and synchronizes the dotfiles that I am currently using.

• Bootstrap your new Ubuntu System
• Never reconfigure your System ever again

The script is generic so that everyone can download and configure their system as soon as possible. It will ask you to give your GIT Full name, Git email and UNIX username.

Usage

Docker

Before doing anything, you need to make sure that your machine can run the installation scripts. We can achieve this with Docker.

sudo apt install -y git-all && \
git clone https://github.com/alexiszamanidis/.ubuntu_bootstrap.git ~/.ubuntu_bootstrap && \
bash ~/.ubuntu_bootstrap/scripts/docker.sh

Installation

After successfully executing the script in Docker Container, you can copy the following command and bootstrap your system.

bash ~/.ubuntu_bootstrap/scripts/install.sh

If you are sure that the installation scripts can run to your machine execute the following commands.

sudo apt install -y git-all && \
git clone https://github.com/alexiszamanidis/.ubuntu_bootstrap.git ~/.ubuntu_bootstrap && \
bash ~/.ubuntu_bootstrap/scripts/install.sh

After running the installation commands open a new terminal.

New Default Path

You can change the default prompt path by running the command below. The cd YOUR_NEW_DEFAULT_PATH will be appended to the .zshrc file, so you can modify it at any time.

echo -e "cd YOUR_NEW_DEFAULT_PATH" >> ~/.zshrc

Windows Terminal

If you are using Windows Subsystem for Linux you can download Windows Terminal from Microsoft Store.

Set your Ubuntu System as default:

• Open Windows Terminal Settings
• Copy guid from your Ubuntu profile
• Paste the guid you just copied to defaultProfile field

Add custom icon

• Go to Windows Terminal folder
• Add your icon inside RoamingState folder
• Open Windows Terminal Settings
• Add "icon": "ms-appdata:///roaming/{YOUR_ICON_NAME}" to your Ubuntu profile

More custom settings:

• Open windows_terminal/settings.json
• Add any field you want and check what suits you best
  • I have included the Aura-Theme
