symlink.sh WIP: Script to automatically link files 2023-04-26 22:54:58 -04:00

README.md

${HOME}/.dotfiles

Version control for dotfiles and templates.

Purpose

${HOME}/.config and ${HOME} are a nightmare to version control. Maintaining a distinct dotfile directory then linking to those files is a much more sane way to cordon them off from the rest of the mess.

Usage

Make changes and maintain dotfiles in this directory.

TODO: Everything below Define symlinks or dumper within the .links file.

Run ${HOME}/scripts/update_configs.pl to refresh links and dump templates.

Details

This file contains a JSON hash of the configuration files available with either a path to be linked, or the name of a dumper contained within ${HOME}/scripts/dotfiles.

${HOME}/.spool/dotfiles.json

This file contains a JSON hash of timestamps at which each configuration was last linked or dumped. The ${HOME}/scripts/update_configs.pl script will use these times to know whether or not they need to be updated. It will do so if:

  • it is a linked configuration file and the .links file has been updated since it was last linked.
  • it is a dumpable template and the template has been updated since the last logged event.
