Homey

My bash $HOME environment: .bashrc+, emacs, ~/bin, cheatsheets

New projects find me creating lots of new linux systems, real, VM, cloud, embedded-ish... WSLUbuntu! Homey is an attempt to enable quick duplication of my bash environment etc and to enable rapid accumulation of new customizations.

This is not a shared project at this time. If you are looking for a similar capability you are welcome to browse or comment but you will probably be better off using with one of the existing, robust dotfile cloning projects instead. Rolling my own is part of re-honing rusted linux skills... ie this thing is buggy! Plus there are some other features that I want included.

Overview

There are 4 major componenents of Homey

• Bash configuration files
• Emacs Environment
• Bin folder for scripts
• Notes folder for projects and cheatsheets

Installation

Clone the repo to ~/homey/

cd ~
git clone --origin cielgithub https://github.com/cielsys/homey homey

Backup or delete the exisiting home files Create ~ symbolic links to the repo version

cd ~
ln -s ~/homey/.bashrc .bashrc
ln -s ~/homey/.bash_aliases .bash_aliases
ln -s ~/homey/.bash_emacs .bash_emacs

ln -s ~/homey/.emacs.d .emacs.d
ln -s ~/homey/bin bin

Or, when it's working right

cd ~
homey/makelinks.bash

... but there is a long way to go to get this working better.

Todo
