YDots is a dotfiles management system allowing to manage dotfiles using a Yaml configuration file.

This only requires python>=3.10 and pip.

Run sudo make.

YDots is able to parse files, replacing occurences of %{{variable}} with the value of variable when file.parse is set to true.

See config.example.yaml for details.

See example.config.yaml for an example configuration file.

If you want YDots to manage its own configuration file, run ydots -c <config.yaml> once, with ydots as a module in your configuration file, setup so that it will install the configuration file to XDG_CONFIG_HOME/ydots/config.yaml, ~/.config/ydots/config.yaml or ~/ydots/config.yaml.

For YDots to install packages, use the -i flag.

Simply run ydots to update all configuration files.
