kleinjm / dotfiles

The configuration files for my personal development environment.

Mac

Setup

• Make sure you're on the latest Mac OS
• Clone the private environment_configurations repo in the same parent directory as this dotfiles repo
• Run mac/make.sh
• This repo assumes the home dir is jklein. If it's not, symlink it with the following

  cd /Users
  sudo ln -s james jklein

• Show hidden files in Finder with defaults write com.apple.Finder AppleShowAllFiles true && killall Finder

Installing Fonts

• Open the font file and install it to the Mac Font Book
  • open mac/config/Fura\ Mono\ Regular\ Nerd\ Font\ Complete\ Mono\ Windows\ Compatible.otf
• In iTerm, set the font to that font for the current profile. Profiles > Text > Font
• Restart vim and you should see devicons

Syncing Mac Settings

• To save local settings to the repo mac/scripts/backup_settings.sh
• To apply repo settings to the local mac mac/scripts/restore_settings.sh (part of make script)

Sequel Pro

• Dark query scheme found in mac_config/sequel-pro-master

Additional environment configurations

• Chrome theme - Dark Theme v3
• See $PRIVATE_CONFIGS_DIR/README.txt

Userscripts

Stored in bookmarks on my googlde chrome account.

NVM

I set the system ~/.nvmrc -> dotfiles/nvmrc and have that fetching node which is the latest node version. Any project without a .nvmrc will use the latest since it will traverse up the dirs to find my root one

TMUX

Default config taken from oh-my-tmux

Alfred

• Settings are stored in the private env config path in Google Drive.
• This should already be stored in settings but if not, use this script to get Alfred <> iTerm2 integration

VIM

• Followed this guide to set up ctags using git hooks
• Use vim-projections to define alternate files as explained here. Each project has a .projections.json defined and globally git ignored.
• Install pythonx dependencies with the following. Note that vim-pyenv takes care of using the pyenv, not system version of python.

pip install -r vim/pythonx/requirements.txt

Music & iTunes

• Music is synced to my personal server space using /mac/scripts/upload_music. This only uploads the file difference and deletes any deleted songs. My server plan comes with 100GB of space.
• For Alfred iTunes miniplayer: In iTunes go to Preferences > Advanced > Share iTunes Library XML with other applications

SSH

To set up ssh and rsync without asking for a password. See this guide NOTE: the same id_rsa.pub is shared so this should not be necessary

ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub [e-mail]

• See $LOCAL_CONFIG (vim leader + lcl) for additional configurations

Neovim

I'm not using neovim currently but to get it set up I used the following

brew install neovim
created ~/.config/nvm/init.vim

# run :checkhealth

# https://github.com/zchee/deoplete-jedi/wiki/Setting-up-Python-for-Neovim
sudo pip2 install --user neovim
sudo pip3 install --user neovim

gem install neovim

Brew

Run brew bundle dump --force to update the Brewfile

Quiver

• Quiver settings are stored in the root dir with default file name Quiver-settings.json

Troubleshooting

• If you're getting a message about __init_nvm not being defined, nvm likely added something to the .zshrc. Check the bottom of the file.

Linux

Setup

• Run linux/scripts/dependencies.sh

Shortkeys

• linux/shortkeys.json contains the shortcuts for the Shortkeys chrome extension

Apt-get

• Packages and sources are backed up as part of the dependency scripts

Apple Magic Mouse

• The apt_get.sh dependency script installs a tool called Ukuu that can be used to manage the kernel version
• Type uname -a to find out your version. It needs to be >= 4.18.0. See https://github.com/rohitpid/Linux-Magic-Trackpad-2-Driver#installation-with-dkms
• Start Ukuu and select kernel 4.20.0 (tested with this one and it works)
• Restart
• Run linux/scripts/setup_magic_mouse.sh

Albert

• Albert and CopyQ will get installed as part of dependencies. The linux restore settings script will provide the custom keyboard shortcut to open the paste buffer.
• The only thing you need to do is make sure the python scripts, specifically copyq, is enabled in alfred preferences. Settings -> Extensions -> Python -> CopyQ
