🏠 igalarzab dotfiles

Your dotfiles are how you personalize your system. These are mine.

🚀 Quick Start

Just run the following commands in your system:

git clone https://github.com/igalarzab/dotfiles ~/.config/dotfiles
cd ~/.config/dotfiles
./sidot run

⚙️ How It Works

The setup is managed by sidot (SImple DOTfiles Script), a custom Python tool that:

1. Installs Homebrew and all packages defined in packages/Brewfile
2. Symlinks configuration files using pattern-based rules:
   • *.symlink files → ~/.* (hidden files in home directory)
   • *.configsymlink files → ~/.config/* (XDG config directory)
3. Sets up development tools via mise (version manager)

📁 Directory Structure

Each topic area has its own directory with relevant configurations:

• aws/: AWS CLI configurations
• bin/: Custom scripts added to $PATH
• git/: Git configuration and aliases
• gnupg/: GPG settings for commit signing
• kubernetes/: kubectl and k8s tool configurations
• macos/: macOS-specific settings
• mise/: Runtime version management
• vim/: Neovim configuration
• xonsh/: Shell configuration and custom functions

🎨 Customization

Adding Your Own Configurations

Create local configuration files that won't be tracked by git:

Git Configuration (~/.config/git/config-local):

[user]
    name         = Your Name
    email        = your.email@example.com
    signingkey   = your-gpg-key-id
[github]
    user         = your-github-username

SSH Configuration (~/.ssh/config-local):

# Add your custom SSH configurations here

Extending the Setup

1. Add new topic directories: Create a new directory (e.g., python/) and add configuration files
2. Install additional packages: Edit packages/Brewfile to add more Homebrew formulas or casks
3. Modify automation: Update sidot.toml to add custom setup steps

📋 Requirements

• 🍎 macOS (tested on recent versions)
• 🌐 Internet connection for downloading packages
• 🔑 Administrative privileges for some installations

🔧 Troubleshooting

• Run ./sidot run again to retry failed installations
• Check packages/Brewfile if specific packages fail to install
• Verify symlinks with ls -la ~/.* and ls -la ~/.config/
