jun-lu / dotfiles

.files, including ~/.osx — sensible hacker defaults for OS X

Addy's dotfiles.

This repo contains my personal dotfiles and are heavily based on paul and mathias's.

Some differences

• Browserstack shortcuts which will launch the service and automatically load up a specific OS/Browser pair with your URL. e.g win7ie8 "http://google.com", ipad3 "http://google.com", ipad3ios6 "http://google.com",androidnexus "http://google.com" etc. If you would prefer to work locally similarly use ipad3 "http://localhost:3000"
• Dropbox via the command-line support dropbox upload {localFile} {remoteFile}, dropbox download {remoteFile} {localFile}, dropbox list etc.
• Browser and npm aliases e.g chrome, safari, opera, firefox, chromium and others.
• Launch all browsers with a specific URL browsers "http://google.com"
• My Sublime Text build files (Grunt, Yeoman, r.js, SASS, Less and a few others included)
• @cowboy's GitHub Pull Request Helper

install the neccessary apps

My basic setup is captured in install-deps.sh which adds homebrew, z, nave, etc.

private config

Toss it into a file called .extra which you do not commit to this repo and just keep in your ~/

I do something nice with my PATH there:

# PATH like a bawss
      PATH=/opt/local/bin
PATH=$PATH:/opt/local/sbin
PATH=$PATH:/bin
PATH=$PATH:~/.rvm/bin
PATH=$PATH:~/code/git-friendly
# ...

export PATH

Syntax highlighting

…is really important. even for these files.

Sensible OS X defaults

When setting up a new Mac, you may want to set some sensible OS X defaults:

./.osx

I recommend getting a .jshintrc and .editorconfig defined for all your projects.
