Dotcraft

This is my dotfiles repository, which includes all my configuration files located in the config folder. The repository also contains installation scripts in the install folder to help you configure your system, meant for Ubuntu (or Linux Mint).

Prerequisites

Ensure that git is installed:

sudo apt update && sudo apt install -y git

Cloning the Repository

You can clone this repository by running:

git clone https://github.com/vgalovic/dotcraft.git ~/.dotfiles
cd .dotfiles

Making Scripts Executable

To run the scripts, you’ll first need to make them executable. Use the following commands in your terminal:

chmod +x install/*.sh
chmod +x install/setup/*.sh

Running the Setup Script

After making the scripts executable, you can run the main setup script with:

./install/run.sh

📝 Note: Running run.sh will automatically prompt you to restart your computer. A restart is required to complete the initial setup. Be sure to save any open work before proceeding.

Post-Setup

After restarting, you may want to run post_run.sh to complete the setup and install some none essential packages. To do so open a terminal and run:

cd .dotfiles
./install/post_run.sh

These commands can't be run from run.sh directly.

Troubleshooting

The scripts will log their output to script_output.log. If something goes wrong during the setup process, you can check this log file to see what happened. This applies to both the run.sh script and post_run.sh.

cat ~/.dotfiles/install/output.log
