Dotfiles

(Formerly named laptop) Bootstrap my macOS machines, for fun & profit.

From Ansible to Dotbot

I decided to migrate all Ansible playbooks to Dotbot and plain shell scripts. Switch to ansible branch if you still want to use Ansible.

Ansible has served me well for years, but the Playbooks grew over time into multiple long-running scripts. Moreover, I think I messed up the configuration and the dependencies between the playbooks as well. Now to add just a new symlink I have to edit multiple files and my setup.sh file is badly designed too.

Some Ansible playbooks will still be here until I moved all scripts to Makefile and Dotbot config files.

Usage

git clone git@github.com:narze/dotfiles.git ~/dotfiles
cd ~/dotfiles && make bootstrap

TODOs

Modify system preferences
- Keyboard shortcuts
- Keyboard layouts
Migrate Ansible Playbooks to Dotbot config
Add folders to Favorites in Finder
Redesign setup script
- Separate bootstrap script (first run on vanilla) from update script
- Print readme when bootstrap script is done, eg. login & sync Dropbox & Google Drive & 1Password & Restore mackup
- Remember & retry on failed step
