# Felipe Santos' dotfiles
Bootstrap your Ubuntu in a single command!
This dotfiles repository is currently aimed for [**Ubuntu on WSL**](https://ubuntu.com/wsl), [**Ubuntu Server**](https://ubuntu.com/server), and [**Ubuntu Desktop**](https://ubuntu.com/desktop), tested against versions **20.04**, **22.04** and **24.04**. See how to get started with WSL [here](https://docs.microsoft.com/pt-br/windows/wsl/install-win10).
It's also suitable for use in [**GitHub Codespaces**](https://docs.github.com/codespaces/customizing-your-codespace/personalizing-codespaces-for-your-account#dotfiles), [**Gitpod**](https://www.gitpod.io/docs/config-dotfiles), [**VS Code Remote - Containers**](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/remote/containers#_personalizing-with-dotfile-repositories), or even Linux distributions that are not Ubuntu, through the [**minimum mode**](#minimum-mode).
Managed with [`chezmoi`](https://chezmoi.io), a great dotfiles manager.
## Getting started
You can use the [convenience script](./scripts/install_dotfiles.sh) to install the dotfiles on any machine with a single command. Simply run the following command in your terminal:
```bash
sh -c "$(wget -qO- https://git.io/felipecrs-dotfiles)"
```
> 💡 We use `wget` here because it comes preinstalled with most Ubuntu versions. But you can also use `curl`:
>
> ```bash
> sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://git.io/felipecrs-dotfiles)"
> ```

### Minimum mode
The installation will ask if you want a **minimum mode installation**. The minimum mode only installs the needed dotfiles for the command prompt and is compatible with more distributions other than Ubuntu.
It will be enabled by default when running in a Dev Container or in distributions other than Ubuntu. For example, I use it in order to bring my environment to the [Home Assistant VS Code Add-on](https://github.com/hassio-addons/addon-vscode).
## Configuring the terminal font
This dotfiles uses the ZSH theme [Powerlevel10k](https://github.com/romkatv/powerlevel10k), so it requires you to install a font on your host machine with support for the [Nerd Fonts](https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts) glyphs. I recommend the [`FiraCode Nerd Font Mono`](https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts/tree/HEAD/patched-fonts/FiraCode#readme).
For **WSL** and **Ubuntu Desktop**, the dotfiles installation will automatically take care of installing the font and set it up for you in **VS Code**, **Windows Terminal** (for WSL), and **GNOME Terminal** (for Ubuntu Desktop).
On other systems or terminal emulators, **you will need to configure it manually**. Here are some tips:
### Installing the font on **Windows**
1. [Download it by clicking here](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts/HEAD/patched-fonts/FiraCode/Regular/FiraCodeNerdFontMono-Regular.ttf).
2. Open it and click in **_Install_**.
3. Restart any applications that you want to load the font into.
### Configuring the font in **VS Code**
1. On **VS Code**, press Ctrl+, to open the settings.
2. Search for "**Terminal Font Family**", and write `FiraCode Nerd Font Mono` in the entry named **_Terminal › Integrated: Font Family_**. Like below:
### Configuring the font in **Windows Terminal**
1. On **Windows Terminal**, press Ctrl+, to open the settings.
2. Go to **_Profiles -> Defaults_** in the left panel. Then, go to **_Additional settings -> Appearance_**.
3. At **_Text -> Font face_**, select **_FiraCode Nerd Font Mono_**. Like below:

## Documentation
**If you followed the steps above so far, you already finished installing the dotfiles. Have fun!**
The below information is more for reference purposes.
### Convenience script
The [getting started](#getting-started) step used the [convenience script](./scripts/install_dotfiles.sh) to install this dotfiles. There are some extra options that you can use to tweak the installation if you need.
It supports some environment variables:
- `DOTFILES_REPO_HOST`: Defaults to `https://github.com`.
- `DOTFILES_USER`: Defaults to `felipecrs`.
- `DOTFILES_BRANCH`: Defaults to `master`.
For example, you can use it to clone and install the dotfiles repository at the `beta` branch with:
```console
DOTFILES_BRANCH=beta sh -c "$(wget -qO- https://git.io/felipecrs-dotfiles)"
```
### Installing without the convenience script
If you prefer not to use the convenience script to install the dotfiles, you can also do it manually:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/felipecrs/dotfiles "$HOME/.dotfiles"
"$HOME/.dotfiles/install.sh"
```

### Extra scripts
There are some scripts here to help you automate tricky activities when setting up your machine.
If you already have this dotfiles [installed](#getting-started), you can use these scripts right away. Or, if you want to run it without installing the dotfiles, you can do something like:
```bash
bash -c "$(curl -fsSL "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/felipecrs/dotfiles/master/scripts/")" --
```
Just replace `` and `` with the desired values. Example:
```bash
bash -c "$(curl -fsSL "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/felipecrs/dotfiles/master/scripts/create_alternative_chrome_shortcut.sh")" -- --force
```
#### [`create_alternative_chrome_shortcut.sh`](scripts/create_alternative_chrome_shortcut.sh)
