Add the following to your
.bashrcor equivalent setup file, replacing thebash_libs_to_loadanddotfilesarrays with the specific helpers and dotfiles you want to automatically load from the repository:
dotfiles_path="/path/to/dotfiles"
bash_libs_path="$dotfiles_path/bash_libs"
bash_libs_to_load=(
'lib1.sh',
'lib2.sh')
dotfiles=(
'dotfile1'
'dotfile2'
'dotfile3')
. "$bash_libs_path/load_bash_libs.sh"
load_bash_libs $bash_libs_path ${bash_libs_to_load[@]}
. "$bash_libs_path/ensure_dotfiles.sh"
ensure_dotfiles $dotfiles_path ${dotfiles[@]}If you are starting from a fresh Ubuntu install and want to get up and running
with several useful pieces of software, you can use the init_ubuntu.sh script.
Please comment out any parts of the script if you do not want to install some
pieces of software.
To use the script:
- Ensure that
$HOME/binand$HOME/.local/binare on your path. If they are not, you can add the following lines to your.profile:
if [[ ":${PATH}:" != *":${HOME}/bin:"* ]]; then
PATH="${HOME}/bin:${PATH}"
fi
if [[ ":${PATH}:" != *":${HOME}/.local/bin:"* ]]; then
PATH="${HOME}/.local/bin:${PATH}"
fiNote: If you are running this under WSL, it seems that the .profile never gets
evaluated, because the shell is not a "login shell". Therefore, you should put
this into your .bashrc.
cdinto thedotfiles/install_scripts/ubuntudirectory, and run./install.sh. Note that you must do this from within thedotfiles/install_scripts/ubuntudirectory.
