shunk031 / dotfiles

💻 My dotfiles powered by chezmoi / spacemacs, zsh, prezto, tmux

📂 dotfiles

🗿 Overview

This dotfiles repository is managed with chezmoi🏠, a great dotfiles manager. The setup scripts are aimed for MacOS, Ubuntu Desktop, and Ubuntu Server. The first two (MacOS/Ubuntu Desktop) include settings for client machines and the latter one (Ubuntu Server) for server machines.

The actual dotfiles exist under the home directory specified in the .chezmoiroot. See .chezmoiroot - chezmoi more detail on the setting.

📥 Setup

To set up the dotfiles run the appropriate snippet in the terminal.

💻 MacOS

• Configuration snippet of the Apple Silicon MacOS environment for client macnine:

bash -c "$(curl -fsLS http://shunk031.me/dotfiles/setup.sh)"

🖥️ Ubuntu

• Configuration snippet of the Ubuntu environment for both client and server machine:

bash -c "$(wget -qO - http://shunk031.me/dotfiles/setup.sh)"

Minimal setup

The following is a minimal setup command to install chezmoi and my dotfiles from the github repository on a new empty machine:

sh -c "$(curl -fsLS get.chezmoi.io)" -- init shunk031 --apply

⚙️ Install & Setup Application Individually

This repository provides for the installation and setup of each application individually. The desired application can be installed as follows (e.g., docker installation on MacOS):

bash install/macos/common/docker.sh

Each installation script can be found under the ./install directory.

🛠️ Update & Test 🧪

Updating and testing the dotfiles follows chezmoi's daily operations. To verify that the updated scripts work correctly, run the scripts on the actual local machine and on the docker container.

💡 Develop the Setup Scripts

The setup scripts are stored as shellscripts in an appropriate location under the ./install directory. After verifying that the shellscript works, store the chezmoi template-based file, which is based on the shellscript, in an appropriate location under the ./home/.chezmoiscripts directory.

Below is the correspondence between shellscript and template for docker installation on MacOS.

• The shellscript for docker: install/macos/common/docker.sh
• The chezmoi template for docker: home/.chezmoiscripts/macos/run_once_10-install-docker.sh.tmpl

💾 Test on the Local Machine

Currently, chezmoi does not automatically reflect updated configuration files (ref. twpayne/chezmoi#2738). The following command will execute the chezmoi apply command as soon as the file is modified using watchexec.

make watch

The chezmoi documentation mentions automatica application by watchman. See https://www.chezmoi.io/user-guide/advanced/use-chezmoi-with-watchman/ for more detail.

🐳 Test on Docker Container

Test the executation of the setup scripts on Ubuntu in its initial state. The following command will launch the test environment using Docker 🐳.

make docker

# docker run -it -v "$(pwd):/home/$(whoami)/.local/share/chezmoi" dotfiles /bin/bash --login
# shunk031@5f93d270cb51:~$ 

Run the chezmoi init --apply command to verify that the system is set up correctly.

shunk031@5f93d270cb51:~$ chezmoi init --apply

🦇 Unit Test with Bats

Test the shellscript for setup with Bash Automated Testing System (bats). The scripts for the unit test can be found under ./tests directory.

📦 Continuously monitor code coverage with Codecov

The code coverage of the ./install scripts are continuously monitored at app.codecov.io/gh/shunk031/dotfiles. The following Icicle graph represents the code coverage of the scripts:

📊 Measure the startup speed of the dotfiles

The startup speed of zsh on MacOS with this dotfile is continuously measured at shunk031.me/my-dotfiles-benchmarks using benchmark-action/github-action-benchmark.
