I have tweaked this set of dotfiles to suit my development workflow. The tools I generally use are:
- Macports: does all the linux/unix FOSS goodness for me (I know about homebrew, but hey...)
- SublimeText
- Atom.io: with emmet, elixir, rust, packages
- Brackets.io: For HTML style stuff, when I need visual feedback quick
- Jekyll and Nanoc: for generating static websites in a hurry
- iTerm2: as a souped up terminal
- QuickSilver: As a launcher
- Postgres.app: For a self contained Postgresql when I need it
- Dropbox: And my src directory is kept here too
The Bootstrap Script will download and setup my day-to-day programming languages and tools
- Rust: IUP, wxwidgets
- Python: Numpy, scipy, sympy, matplotlib, opencv, pyqt, ipython, pandas, orange, wxPython, simplecv
- Julia
- racket
- go
- node.js
- meteor: Really great for mobile apps and ridiculously easy to learn
- Download and install xcode the latest version
- run the bootstrap.sh script to setup your mac - will take a while, be patient
- Added a .extra file to hold my custom configs for all my macs, change to suit you
- I use macports. not homebrew (silly I know, but hey)
- It seems generally necessary to setup LC_ALL, LC_LANG, LC_LANGUAGE on remote servers so I do that
- (toDo) Modified ssh ServerKeepAlive
- my code directory is generall ~/src so I point to that alot
- My favorite tools: Sublime Text, Atom.io, Brackets.io
- Of course I am using ohmyz.sh and iTerm2
- I like Dash (https://kapeli.com/dash)
- Since I am totally silly I install all my python packages in the system folders. so I set PYTHONPATH (Helps macports install opencv)
- the .osx seems particularly dangerous. so commented out everything. Enable only what you need
You can clone the repository wherever you want. (I like to keep it in ~/Projects/dotfiles
, with ~/dotfiles
as a symlink.) The bootstrapper script will pull in the latest version and copy the files to your home folder.
git clone https://github.com/nyimbi/ohmyzsh-dotfiles.git
The bootstrap.sh file currently doesn't work, so just copy any of the dotfiles you like into your home directory.
To install these dotfiles without Git:
cd; curl -#L https://github.com/mattstauffer/ohmyzsh-dotfiles/tarball/master | tar -xzv --strip-components 1 --exclude={README.md,bootstrap.sh}
To update later on, just run that command again.
If ~/.mix-path
exists, it will be sourced along with the other files, before any feature testing (such as detecting which version of ls
is being used) takes place.
Here’s an example ~/.mix-path
file that adds ~/utils
to the $PATH
:
export PATH="$HOME/utils:$PATH"
If ~/.mix-extra
exists, it will be sourced along with the other files. You can use this to add a few custom commands without the need to fork this entire repository, or to add commands you don’t want to commit to a public repository.
When setting up a new Mac, you may want to install some common Homebrew formulae (after installing Homebrew, of course):
brew bundle .brewfile
