.dotfiles for Termux

Forked from jooray, modified to work for termux

Installation

Warning: If you want to give these dotfiles a try, you should first fork this repository, review the code, and remove things you don’t want or need. Don’t blindly use my settings unless you know what that entails. Use at your own risk!

Using Git and the bootstrap script

You can clone the repository wherever you want. (I like to keep it in ~/Termux-dotfiles) The bootstrapper script will pull in the latest version and copy the files to your home folder.

NOTE: bootstrap.sh makes use of rsync , therefor remember to install it before apt install rsync

git clone https://github.com/dominee/Termux-dotfiles.git && cd dotfiles && source bootstrap.sh

To update, cd into your local dotfiles repository and then:

source bootstrap.sh

Alternatively, to update while avoiding the confirmation prompt:

set -- -f; source bootstrap.sh

Git-free install

NOTE: bootstrap.sh makes use of rsync , therefor remember to install it before apt install rsync

To install these dotfiles without Git:

cd; curl -#L https://github.com/dominee/Termux-dotfiles/tarball/master | tar -xzv --strip-components 1 --exclude={README.md,bootstrap.sh,LICENSE-MIT.txt}

To update later on, just run that command again.

Specify the $PATH

If ~/.path exists, it will be sourced along with the other files, before any feature testing takes place.

Here’s an example ~/.path file that adds /usr/local/bin to the $PATH:

export PATH="/usr/local/bin:$PATH"

Apt setup

Simple installer for APT packages that use this dotfiles, and that make your life easier ;]

./apt.sh

Add custom commands without creating a new fork

If ~/.extra exists, it will be sourced along with the other files. You can use this to add a few custom commands without the need to fork this entire repository, or to add commands you don’t want to commit to a public repository.

My ~/.extra looks something like this:

alias moo='fortune | cowsay'

You could also use ~/.extra to override settings, functions and aliases. You can also use ~/.gitconfig.local and ~/.vimrc.local.

Examples

If you would like to see some examples from .aliases or .functions, have a look at EXAMPLES.md.
