Installation

Homebrew

First, check if homebrew is installed yet, if not, do so now by running:

$ /usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"

Then clone this project to home directory. I prefer keeping it as a hidden folder since it contains dotfiles afterall

$ git clone [email protected]:hungle88/dotfiles.git .dotfiles

Z shell

Symlink the zsh startup file to the home directory. This step is important since it makes sure all the following steps will work as expected (eg: programs installed via brew)

$ ln -s ~/.dotfiles/zshrc ~/.zshrc

If ZIM is NOT installed yet, follow the instruction on Github and then symlink ZIM config file by running the command below. This will actually override the newly created ~/.zimrc file.

$ ln -s ~/.dotfiles/zimrc ~/.zimrc

Similarly, if Zplug is NOT installed, do it now:

# Install Zplug
$ curl -sL zplug.sh/installer | zsh

and install all defined plugins by running this command:

$ zplug install

Vim

Still in the home directory, symlink the two *rc files to home directory like so:

$ ln -s ~/.dotfiles/vimrc ~/.vimrc
$ ln -s ~/.dotfiles/vimrc.bundles ~/.vimrc.bundles

All the plugins defined in the vimrc.bundles is managed via Vim Plug, so make sure it's installed first before running PlugInstall to install the any newly added plugins.

Tmux

If tmux is not installed, install it via homebrew now

% brew install tmux

Symlink the tmux configuration file to the home directory

$ ln -s ~/.dotfiles/tmux.conf ~/.tmux.conf

Update

Simply running a git pull inside the cloned folder

$ cd ~/.dotfiles
$ git pull
