Installation

Option 1 - Install via cURL

curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mightyguava/dotfiles/master/install.sh | bash

The repo is bootstrapped to $HOME/.dotfiles.

To disable slow YCM and cmake install for VIM, first run

export NO_INSTALL_CMAKE=1
export NO_INSTALL_YCM=1

Option 2 - Check out repo and then run install

./install.sh [copy] [<target_dir>]

If run without arguments, symlinks the dotfiles to ${HOME}
If 'copy' is provided, copies instead of symlinks, but skips the git submodules
If a <target_dir> is provided, symlinks/copies to target_dir instead of ${HOME}

The switch_repos tool

switch_repos is a script for switching between git repositories that follow the Go workspace convention. You code does not have to be Go, but just that it follows the same directory scheme. See How to Write Go Code for details.

switch_repos consists of:

• A short bash script
• An alias g for activating the script (it cannot be invoked directly as a command)

In addition to switching repos, it also supports entering virtualenvs if it detects a Python repo, and you have previously created a virtualenv using virtualenvwrapper with the same name as the repo root folder.

Finally, it also supports zsh autocompletions.

Installation

First make sure you have virtualenvwrapper installed.

1. Place bin/switch_repos on your $PATH, like in /usr/local/bin
2. Add this your .zshrc or .bashrc

alias g="source ~/bin/switch_repos"

3. If you use zsh, put zsh/_switch_repos under ~/.zsh. (This assumes you have zsh configured to support autocompletion at all)
4. Source .zshrc or .bashrc, or open a new shell.

Usage

g <repo_name> switches to the repo and activates the virtualenv if one exists with the same name as the repo

g at any subfolder in the repo tree will switch to the root.
