dotbrains / set-me-up-installer

This is the binary used to install and configure 'set-me-up' on Mac and *debian* linux machines.

set-me-up installer

This is the universal installer script used to install 'set-me-up' (smu) on a Mac or debian based machine.

Obtaining set-me-up installer

To start, your default shell must be set to bash prior to executing the install snippet for the first time. This is because on newer versions of Mac OS, the default shell is zsh instead of bash. To change your default shell, run the following command in your console.

sudo chsh -s $(which bash) $(whoami)

Once the default shell is bash, close and reopen the terminal window. Then, run the following command in your console.

(⚠️ DO NOT run the install snippet if you don't fully understand what it does. Seriously, DON'T!)

bash <(curl -s -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dotbrains/set-me-up-installer/main/install.sh)

You can change the smu home directory by setting an environment variable called SMU_HOME_DIR. Please keep the variable declared or else the smu scripts are unable to pickup the sources.

export SMU_HOME_DIR="some-path" \
    bash <(curl -s -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dotbrains/set-me-up-installer/main/install.sh)
