Download (and extract) the provisioning scripts from GitHub.

cd ~/Downloads/mac-dev-setup-master
./setup.sh

The script will ask for some variables and will store their content in ./.personalised_settings.sh for later re-use.

The installation procedure will download many packages (about 2.5GB of files) and you will need to enter your root password from time to time. Some packages (notably XCode CLI Tools and TeamViewer) will prompt you with some installation window on their own, which you will need to process manually.

There are still some manual steps left in order to finalize the installation. Some of these could surely be automated as well (pull requests appreciated!), while other's don't.

vagrant plugin install vagrant-vbguest

Depending on your physical hardware you need to specify different values for CPU/RAM/HDD, but the general procedure works like this:

docker-machine create --driver virtualbox --virtualbox-cpu-count 8 --virtualbox-memory 6144 --virtualbox-disk-size 60000 default

It is a good idea to reboot your system afterwards to make sure all settings and environment variables are taken into account.

While IntelliJ has already been installed, the "Lombok" plugin is still missing to be able to start working. Hints for the installation process can be found on jetbrains.com. Then checkbox "Enable annotation processing" needs to be activated in the preferences.

For Eclipse, please refer to the documentation on the official project homepage: projectlombok.org. Further, you'll need to install the Buildship plugin.

Now that you have a running development environment you should replace your download of the zipped GitHub project with a real clone of that repository:

git clone https://github.com/ePages-de/mac-dev-setup.git
cd mac-dev-setup

Don't forget to move your ./.personalised_settings.sh into this new directory

Now you can create a new branch and maintain your changes or prepare pull requests from it. Especially tweaking your .bash_profile is highly recommended, see for instance CONFIG_SERVER_REPO environment variable in it.

git checkout -b local
vi common/templates/.bash_profile.j2
