|
||
|
||
This is my collection of dotfiles for my daily GNU/Linux environment, tweaked
|
||
to my liking. If you wish to get the same setup as mine, follow the
|
||
instructions below.
|
||
|
||
As you can see, I personally use [[https://fishshell.com/][fish]] as my shell of choice, and [[https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/][Emacs]] using
|
||
[[http://spacemacs.org][Spacemacs]] (still with Emacs keybinding) as my main text editor.
|
||
|
||
I also use [[https://github.com/resloved/i3][Resloved]]’s [[https://github.com/resloved/i3][fork]] of [[https://github.com/Airblader/i3][i3-gaps]] with two [[https://github.com/jaagr/polybar][polybar]] bars and [[https://github.com/tryone144][Tryone144]]’s
|
||
[[https://github.com/tryone144/compton][fork]] of [[https://github.com/chjj/compton][Compton]]. The colors scheme for [[https://github.com/davatorium/rofi][rofi]], Emacs and polybar are chosen from
|
||
the wallpapers using [[https://github.com/dylanaraps/pywal][pywal]].
|
||
|
||
* Features
|
||
- Emacs configuration perfectly tailored for my own use
|
||
- Beautiful and comfy i3 and polybar configuration
|
||
- And enough information below to get basically the same distro install as I
|
||
have on my main computer and my travel laptop.

|
||
- And a bunch of other stuff, see below
|
||
And some other stuff scattered around in my dotfiles.
|
||
|
||
BTW, I use Arch.
|
||
|
||
* Installation
|
||
Here will be presented what I do to get my system up and running on a fresh
|
||
Arch Linux install. These installation instructions were written in order to
|
||
get an Arch Linux distribution up and running with the same configuration as
|
||
my main computer’s and my travelling laptop’s configuration.
|
||
|
||
** Install Arch Linux
|
||
I usually install Arch from the [[https://www.archlinux.org/download/][vanilla ISO]], however I began using [[https://github.com/MatMoul/archfi][archfi]] to
|
||
install easily the distro (I’ve done it so many times, I know how it works
|
||
now). Usually, my distros will be installed on at least two partitions, one
|
||
dedicated to =/home=, the other to the root partition =/=.
|
||
|
||
If the computer supports EFI bootloaders, the EFI partition will be mounted
|
||
on =/boot=. I generally use rEFInd as my boot manager, but if you are more
|
||
comfortable with another one, just install what you want. Be aware that if
|
||
you format your =/boot= partition, you will delete all boot managers that
|
||
already exist; so, if you are dual-booting, *DO NOT FORMAT IT*. Yes, I made
|
||
the mistake of wiping the Windows boot manager.
|
||
|
||
The swap partition is always at least 4GB large, and I should have a total of
|
||
12GB of combined RAM and swap. This means on my main computer I have 16GB of
|
||
RAM and 4GB of swap, but on my thinkpad I have 4GB of RAM and 8GB of swap.
|
||
|
||
|
||
*** Get the latest live system with fast mirrors
|
||
When you boot into the live ISO, execute the following command:
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC sh :exports code
|
||
pacman -Syu reflector
|
||
reflector --country France --country Germany --latest 200 \
|
||
--protocol http --protocol https --sort rate \
|
||
--save /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
This will update the packages from your live ISO, and you will get the best
|
||
mirrors for your installation. Of course, change the countries accordingly
|
||
to your location.
|
||
|
||
*** Install the system
|
||
Then you can use a custom script to ease your installation of Arch if you do
|
||
not wish to do it manually. Personally, I’ve done it several times already,
|
||
I know how the distro works, I just want to be able to install my distro
|
||
quickly now.
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC sh :exports code
|
||
wget archfi.sf.net/archfi
|
||
# Or from matmoul.github.io/archfi if SourceForge is down
|
||
sh archfi
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
Then, follow the instructions and install Arch Linux. Take the opportunity
|
||
to install as many packages as you need, mainly =yay= which I use as my
|
||
package manager (it is just a wrapper for =pacman=) and AUR helper.
|
||
|
||
Once your system is installed, reboot and remove your installation media
|
||
from your computer.
|
||
|
||
** Install =yay= if it hasn’t been done during the system installation
|
||
Next step is to install the AUR helper =yay=. *DO NOT* use =yaourt=, it is
|
||
discontinued, seriously updated and represents a serious security flaw.
|
||
|
||
Let’s clone =yay= in a folder =fromGIT= that will be in our home folder. This
|
||
is also where we’ll download every other packages we’ll install from git.
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC sh :dir ~ :exports code
|
||
mkdir -p fromGIT
|
||
cd fromGIT
|
||
git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/yay.git
|
||
cd yay
|
||
makepkg -si --noconfirm
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
We now have our AUR helper!
|
||
|
||
** Update the system
|
||
Congrats, Arch is now installed on your system! But we are not done yet.
|
||
Let’s update the system, just in case some packages were updated during the
|
||
installation. And let’s install =yadm= (our dotfiles manager) and =emacs=
|
||
while we’re at it.
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC sh :exports code
|
||
yay -Syua yadm emacs
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
|
||
** Set up =yadm= =yadm= is my dotfiles manager. It has some very interesting, including host
|
||
and machine-specific files and file content, as can be seen in =.config/i3/config##yadm.j2=. It also manages some files system-wide (well,
|
||
actually =home=-wide), so you usually don’t have to symlink anything.
|
||
|
||
For some reason, when I’m in i3, polybar crashes when I run any =yadm=
|
||
command, so I made the =C-S-p= shortcut to relaunch it at will.
|
||
|
||
*** Get the dotfiles
|
||
You should clone the dotfiles with the help of =yadm=. For that purpose, you
|
||
can execute either of the two following commands.
|
||
- From [[https://labs.phundrak.fr/phundrak/dotfiles][labs.phundrak.fr]]:
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC sh :dir ~ :exports code
|
||
yadm clone https://labs.phundrak.fr/phundrak/dotfiles.git
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
- From [[https://github.com/phundrak/dotfiles][Github]]:
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC sh :dir ~ :exports code
|
||
yadm clone https://gitlab.com/phundrak/dotfiles.git
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
|
||
*** Update the remotes
|
||
Now, let’s make sure we have the correct remotes set up for the dotfiles.
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :exports code :dir ~/dotfiles
|
||
yadm remote set-url origin "https://labs.phundrak.fr/phundrak/dotfiles.git"
|
||
yadm remote add-url github "https://github.com/phundrak/dotfiles.git"
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
You can swap the two links if you feel more comfortable with Github as the =origin= remote, just rename the =github= remote to something like =phundraklabs= or something like that.
|
||
|
||
If you have already generated (or copied, but don’t do that) your SSH keys
|
||
and uploaded them to Github and/or to Phundrak Labs, you can use the
|
||
following urls instead as the remotes’ urls.
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC text
|
||
git@labs.phundrak.fr:phundrak/dotfiles.git
|
||
git@github.com:phundrak/dotfiles.git
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
|
||
*** Get our git submodules
|
||
Our dotfiles rely on a couple of submodules we should get. Let’s download
|
||
them.
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC sh :dir ~ :exports code
|
||
yadm submodule update --init --recursive
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
|
||
*** Generate the alt dotfiles =yadm= will need to generate the host-specific dotfiles. To do so, you can
|
||
run the following command:
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC sh :dir ~ :exports code
|
||
yadm alt
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
And with that, we should have all of our dotfiles placed where they need to
|
||
be!
|
||
|
||
** Set up Emacs
|
||
Now that we have our dotfiles installed, let’s set up Emacs. First, let’s
|
||
download Spacemacs.
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC sh :dir ~ :exports code
|
||
git clone https://github.com/syl20bnr/spacemacs ~/.emacs.d
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
|
||
In our =.emacs.d= directory, let’s switch Spacemacs’ branch to =develop=.
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC sh :dir ~/.emacs.d :exports code
|
||
git checkout develop
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
The rest of this README’s code blocks should now be executable from Emacs
|
||
itself, and we should be able to have a perfectly running Emacs installation.
|
||
That’s the power of Org-mode!
|
||
|
||
** Install our needed packages
|
||
Now, we can install all the packages I usually have installed on my computer.
|
||

#+END_SRC
|
||
Given how many packages will be install from the AUR, I’ll probably have to
|
||
type my password a few times.
|
||
|
||
For some reasons, if you directly install =compton-tryone-git= without
|
||
installing =compton= first, the package won’t work, which is why I made you
|
||
install =compton= in the command above. Now you can install =compton-tryone-git=. It will replace =compton=, so say “yes” when it warns
|
||
you about the package conflict and whether =compton= should be removed.
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :exports code
|
||
yay -S compton-tryone-git
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
|
||
** Enable and start some services
|
||
As you can see above, docker has been installed. Let’s enable and start its
|
||
service.
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :dir /sudo:: :exports code
|
||
systemctl enable docker
|
||
systemctl start docker
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
I also usually add myself as a member of the =docker= group because I don’t
|
||
like prefixing every single docker command with =sudo=. So let’s execute this
|
||
command:
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :exports code
|
||
sudo usermod -aG docker $USER
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
|
||
Depending on my machine, I might enable the SSH server shipped with =openssh=. Edit your =/etc/ssh/sshd_config= file as needed, then let’s do
|
||
that here:
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :dir /sudo:: :exports code
|
||
systemctl enable sshd
|
||
systemctl start sshd
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
|
||
** Install Fisher and our fish shell extensions
|
||
As mentionned above, I use the fish shell as my main shell. And I use some
|
||
extensions too that I installed from fisher, and custom functions.First,
|
||
let’s install fisher:
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :exports code
|
||
curl https://git.io/fisher --create-dirs -sLo \
|
||
~/.config/fish/functions/fisher.fish
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
|
||
Awesome! Now, onto the fisher packages:
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :exports code

|
||
Now our fish shell is ready to rock! Plus, we already have our custom
|
||
functions installed from our dotfiles!
|
||
|
||
** Install packages from git
|
||
Now, we move on to the installation of git-based packages.
|
||
|
||
*** Install =i3-gaps-rounded=
|
||
I know we already installed =i3-gaps= from the AUR, why reinstall it? Well,
|
||
that is certainly bad practices, but this allowed me to already have the
|
||
needed dependencies for building =i3= installed. Now, let’s clone it, build
|
||
it, and install it. It will required the password during the actual
|
||
installation.
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :dir ~/fromGIT :exports code
|
||
git clone https://github.com/resloved/i3.git i3-gaps-rounded
|
||
cd i3-gaps-rounded
|
||
rm -rf build
|
||
autoreconf --force --install
|
||
mkdir build && cd build
|
||
../configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --disable-sanitizers
|
||
make
|
||
sudo make install
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
|
||
*** Install Polybar Battery
|
||
I use a custom tool for my battery indicator which also launches a warning
|
||
when the battery is low. However, I need to build it, since it is not
|
||
available in the repos nor the AUR.
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :dir ~/fromGIT :exports code
|
||
git clone https://github.com/drdeimos/polybar_another_battery.git
|
||
cd polybar_another_battery
|
||
go get -u github.com/distatus/battery/cmd/battery
|
||
make build
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
|
||
Let’s also create the =~/.local/bin/= directory in which I will put some
|
||
custom executables, including the executable we just built.
|
||
|
||
*** Download Reveal.JS
|
||
Now, let’s download [[https://revealjs.com/#/][Reveal.JS]]. I use it for some of my Org presentations,
|
||
and I set it so it is found in =~/fromGIT=.
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :dir ~/fromGIT :exports code
|
||
git clone https://github.com/hakimel/reveal.js.git
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
|
||
** Set your locale
|
||
Arch’s default locale configuration is crap. Like… really. It took me a while
|
||
to figure out why some elements in polybar didn’t work along with some other
|
||
pieces of software. So, go and uncomment the locales you’ll use in =/etc/locale.gen=. I personally have =en_US.UTF-8=, =fr_FR.UTF-8= and =ja_JP.UTF-8= uncommented, but what you choose is really up to you. Then run
|
||
the following command as sudo.
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :dir /sudo:: :exports code
|
||
locale-gen
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
|
||
Now you can edit your =/etc/locale.conf= file. Mine looks like this, edit it
|
||
to fit your needs.
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC conf :exports code
|
||
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
|
||
LC_COLLATE=C
|
||
LC_NAME=fr_FR.UTF-8
|
||
LC_NUMERIC=fr_FR.UTF-8
|
||
LC_IDENTIFICATION=fr_FR.UTF-8
|
||
LC_TELEPHONE=fr_FR.UTF-8
|
||
LC_MONETARY=fr_FR.UTF-8
|
||
LC_PAPER=fr_FR.UTF-8
|
||
LC_ADDRESS=fr_FR.UTF-8
|
||
LC_TIME=fr_FR.UTF-8
|
||
LC_MEASUREMENT=fr_FR.UTF-8
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
|
||
** Launch X
|
||
Aaaand we should finally be good to launch X for the first time! My
|
||
installation logs me in the tty by default, and I do this by choice, I don’t
|
||
really like display managers or desktop environments. So, to launch i3, let’s
|
||
run =startx=.
|
||
|
||
** Create some directories
|
||
Thanks to the [[file:.local/bin/dmount][dmount]] and [[file:.local/bin/dumount][dumount]] utilities, mounting and unmounting devices
|
||
can be done very easily. And to add to some easiness, let’s create a couple
|
||
of directories dedicated to what we might mount on our computer:
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :dir /sudo:: :exports code
|
||
mkdir -p /mnt/{USB,CD,Android}
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
And in case we need to mount some ext4 partitions on these, let’s change the
|
||
ownership of these directories.
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :exports code
|
||
sudo chown $USER:(id -g $USER) /mnt/{USB,CD,Android}
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
|
||
** Install Rust
|
||
*** Install the toolchains
|
||
When using rust, I bounce between two toolchains, the =stable= toolchain and
|
||
the =nightly= toolchain. To install them, I will use =rustup= which has
|
||
already been installed.
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :exports code
|
||
rustup default nightly
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
This will both download the nightly toolchain and set it as the default one.
|
||
Yup, I like to live dangerously. Now to install the stable toolchain, let’s
|
||
run this:
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :exports code
|
||
rustup toolchain install stable
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
The nightly toolchain is ironically updated about daily (hence the name…
|
||
sort of?), so we’ll often have to run the following command:
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :exports code
|
||
rustup update
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
|
||
*** Install some utilities
|
||
We’ll need some utilities when developing Rust from Emacs, namely =rustfmt=
|
||
and =racer=. Let’s install them with =cargo=.
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
|
||
cargo install rustfmt racer
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
|
||
** Clean the =pacman= and =yay= cache
|
||
Finally, we are almost done! Let’s clean the cache of =pacman= and =yay=
|
||
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :dir /sudo:: :exports code
|
||
yay -Sc --noconfirm
|
||
#+END_SRC
|
||
You should now run a system pretty close to the one I have on my main
|
||
computer and my thinkpad.
