Oli's Dotfiles

My macOS dotfiles. Installation instructions are my own
Regular Neovim tweaks. Occasional workflow tips worth stealing 😄
My current Neovim config can be found here

💻 Setting up a new Mac

• Ensure you're signed into iCloud and the App Store
• Clone the dotfiles:

git clone https://github.com/olimorris/dotfiles.git ~/.dotfiles

• Copy rclone.conf from 1Password to ~/.dotfiles/.config/rclone/rclone.conf
• Copy .env from 1Password to ~/.dotfiles/.config/env/.env and update as required
• Open up a terminal and run:

cd ~/.dotfiles && rake init

• Grab a coffee. This will take a while

🔧 What actually happens

• Your Homebrew and macOS apps will be installed
• Your application settings will be restored via tasks/mackup.rb
• Your dotfiles will be restored with Dotbot
• Your fonts will be installed
• Your custom launch agents will be installed
• Your development environments will be installed and configured

💾 Useful commands

• To move files between Macs (run backup --help for the groups and options):

backup push --dotfiles --code    # Mac -> cloud, newer file wins, nothing deleted
backup pull --dotfiles --code    # cloud -> Mac, newer file wins, nothing deleted
backup sync --dotfiles --code    # push, then pull
backup reset --code              # make this Mac match the cloud, deleting local extras

• To save this Mac's package lists into ~/.dotfiles without pushing:

rake backup:packages

• To apply the files in ~/.dotfiles to this Mac:

rake setup             # links, app configs and packages
rake setup:links       # dotbot and agent skills
rake setup:apps        # app configs
rake setup:packages    # brew, casks, App Store, gems, npm, pip. Never uninstalls
rake setup:macos       # macOS defaults, not part of rake setup

• To update everything and refresh the package lists:

cd ~/.dotfiles && rake update

⌨️ Useful keymaps

I implement a Hyperkey (ctrloptcmd) to allow for faster application toggling and easier to remember app shortcuts.
