# Getting started
|
|
The Python requirements are all in `requirements.txt`, so before starting you need to issue the following command:
|
|
```sh
|
|
$ pip install -r requirements.txt --user
|
|
```
|
|
**without** using sudo. Using sudo with pip is a bad idea because it will interfere with your distribution's package manager.
|
|
|
|
If on a fresh install, you won't have `pip` installed, so you'll need:
|
|
```sh
|
|
$ sudo pacman -S python-pip
|
|
```
|
|
or
|
|
```sh
|
|
$ sudo apt install python3-pip
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The authentication details are stored in `secrets`. Therefore, you have a template `secrets.template` that you need to copy and rename:
|
|
```sh
|
|
$ cp secrets{.template,}
|
|
```
|
|
Modify the resulting file, and then run `./install.py` with needed flags (`./install.py -h` is your friend).

# About the files in the repo
|
|
* `arch-desktop_borg.sh`<br>
|
|
Borg backup script. Used by a pacman hook to backup my system.
|
|
|
|
* `configs.yml`<br>
|
|
Lists the things to install, which includes programs, symlinks, git clones, shell commands...
|
|
|
|
* `dotfiles/`<br>
|
|
The actual dotfiles. They are symlinked to the location that the system expects to find them.
|
|
|
|
* `install.py`<br>
|
|
Installs everything using `configs.yml`. This is the file to actually run.
|
|
|
|
* `firefox_addons.txt`<br>
|
|
I like to install my Firefox add-ons manually in the Firefox add-on manager, so this file just reminds me what to install and includes the urls to each add-on.
|
|
|
|
* `pacman_hooks/`<br>
|
|
You need to manually copy or symlink any hook to `/etc/pacman.d/hooks/` to activate it.
|
|
|
|
* `shellcheck_binary_fix.sh`<br>
|
|
When running this on Manjaro, pacman was unable to find the shellcheck package, so this script installs the pre-compiled binary instead. If your package manager finds shellcheck, this script won't run.
|
|
|
|
* `todo`<br>
|
|
Never seems to remain empty...

The idea for the architecture was taken from Dimitri Merejkowsky's [GitHub](https://github.com/dmerejkowsky/dotfiles).
