Recently I found that I'm working on newly created linux workstations so often that time by time I'm annoyed with these repeating work:
- set up my shell aliases, prompts, color schemas and custom functions, etc..
- install and configure my favorite
bat,jq,fzf,rg,fd, etc.. - install and configure vim plugins..
IT'S TIME to automate all of these with one command!
It's supposed to inlucde all my customizations on a workstation,
it means that all my custom settings would settle down inside the $HOME/.rayrc folder.
Why? (You may ask)
- Well, you know, there are many, those kinds of, company policies, security policies, blahblah blahblah..
Anyway, I tried my best to include all my customizations within inside the $HOME/.rayrc folder.
And, after installation, it gives me a consistent shell environment, whichever workstation I log in to.
Something like:
-
beautiful and useful prompt
- for Linux
- for Mac
- for Linux
-
auto-completion for frequently using commands
- aws, k(kubectl), d(docker), dp(docker-compose)..
-
some useful custom functions
- k.conf..
I created this for myself, but I expect this to work for anyone who wants a somehow beautiful and useful shell environment.
- Besides of this repo, we expect you to do some customizations for your terminal environment:
- somehow nowadays terminal application? Like for example, Windows Terminal on Win, iTerm2 on Mac..
- Nerd Fonts: beautiful monospace fonts with highly crafted icons..
- some colorschemas, like Solarized..
It should be easy to install, as easy as running this single one-liner:
git clone https://github.com/cr1315/.rayrc.git && source .rayrc/install
git clone https://github.com/cr1315/.rayrc.git && . .rayrc/install.ps1
git clone -b dev_docker --single-branch --depth 1 https://github.com/cr1315/.rayrc.git && source .rayrc/install
It may sounds a bit ridiculous to use the word "architecutre" for such a little project, but I'd say I've really crafted a lot.
I assume that this repo could create a Pluggable Terminal rc Platform with these considerations in mind:
- unified management
- idempotency
- extensibility / pluggable
Unfortunately, I'm not good at bragging, although I'm working in a consulting company :).
Whatever, I think you can understand the concept/intention as soon as you see this folder structure image:
