Ubuntu Dotfiles

My personal dotfiles for the Ubuntu desktop environment. Fork the repository to adapt it to your preferences.

Structure

config/ 
    git/
    vscode/
    zsh/
    # more personal settings for different programs
configs.sh
programs.sh
run.sh
  • config/ directory is where you put all your personal settings that you use in any development environment.

  • configs.sh contains functions for copying or removing your personal settings.

  • programs.sh contains all the installation code for programs. This is where you want to add new installation codes or delete existing ones.

  • run.sh is script that allows you to install all programs and set configurations with a single command.

Usage

Installing all available programs and settings

./run.sh setup

Adding personal settings for a program

  1. Put the necessary files in config folder.

  2. Add them to config_paths array in the run.sh script.

    declare -a config_paths=(
        # SOURCE                                # DEST
        # ...
        "<source-path-for-new-config-file>      <destination-path-for-new-config-file>"
    )

Selecting the programs to install

  • There are available programs by default. Their names are listed in program_names array in the run.sh script. Remove the name of the program to avoid installing it.

    declare -a program_names=(
        # "zsh"         # Do not install the zsh
        "vscode"
        "nvm"
    )

Adding new programs

  1. Create a function in programs.sh and add the installation code to it.

    install_mongodb() {
        wget -qO - https://www.mongodb.org/static/pgp/server-5.0.asc | sudo apt-key add -
        echo "deb [ arch=amd64,arm64 ] https://repo.mongodb.org/apt/ubuntu focal/mongodb-org/5.0 multiverse" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mongodb-org-5.0.list
        sudo apt-get update
        sudo apt-get install -y mongodb-org
    }
  2. Add this function to available_installations dictionary in programs.sh.

    declare -A available_installations=(
        # ...
        ["mongodb"]=install_mongodb
    )
  3. Add the new key to program_names array in run.sh.

    declare -a program_names=(
        # ...
        "mongodb"
    )

Uninstalling all programs and settings

Note: Use this for debugging purposes only.

./run.sh clear

Creating desktop environment with all programs installed

  1. Install VirtualBox and Vagrant.

  2. Create a virtual machine with Ubuntu desktop installed by using the Vagrantfile.

    vagrant up
  3. Use vagrant user to login to Ubuntu desktop. The password for vagrant user is vagrant. See "vagrant" User.

Notes

  • If you don't use zsh as the default terminal, you may need to copy some environment variables of installed programs into (~/.bash_profile, ~/.profile, or ~/.bashrc). For example:

    # Add these lines to your .bashrc file.
    export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-17-openjdk-amd64
    export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH
