dots

WIP bootstrapping library for osx & ubuntu (and maybe others!)

Installation

One-liner:

(mkdir -p /tmp/dots && cd /tmp/dots && curl -L https://github.com/matthewmueller/dots/archive/master.tar.gz | tar zx --strip 1 && sh ./install.sh)

Design

The goal of dots is to automate the process of getting your operating system from a stock build to a fully functional machine.

Dots should be the first thing you download and run to get your computer set up.

This library tries to be organized like a node application, while working within the constraints of bash.

Supported Operating systems:

Mac OS X

The OSX build does the following:

• install homebrew
• installs binaries (graphicsmagick, python, sshfs, ack, git, etc.)
• sets OSX defaults
• installs applications via homebrew-cask (one-password, sublime-text, virtualbox, nv-alt, iterm2, etc.)
• sets up the ~/.bash_profile

Ubuntu (server) (ALPHA)

The Ubuntu build does the following:

• dash => bash
• creates a user
• installs git and curl
• sets up the ssh keys
• configures fail2ban
• sets up the firewall
• installs docker

TODO

• Consider rewriting to be a cross-compiled Go project
• improve modularity (is there a way to source single functions from files?)
• generalize configuration (use secret gists for configuration)
• git-config
• ubuntu profile
• logging
• much more...
