dot

All “dot” files for the configuration of the system

Setup

First, you can clone this repository in ~/.dot for example (it should work cloned anywhere but has never been tested). You also need to pull all submodules.

git clone https://github.com/woshilapin/dot.git ~/.dot
cd ~/.dot
git submodule update --init --recursive

Powerline

To install Powerline, first you need to install Python3 and virtualenv. On a Debian-like distribution, you can do

sudo apt install python3.7 python3-virtualenv virtualenv

Once this is done, you can simply run the script powerline (in the .dot/zsh/scripts/ directory), it will automatically use pip and virtualenv to install Powerline in ~/.virtualenv.

Powerline use a set of specific fonts. You can install them with fonts-powerline package on Debian-like distribution. You might need to restart the system to activate it.

YouCompleteMe for Vim

In Vim, the installation of YouCompleteMe is a bit specific because it needs to be compiled.

First of all, be sure to have pull all submodules recursively in the .dot git repository.

git submodule update --init --recursive

Then, you will need to install headers for Python. For example, if you want to use Python3.7, install the following packages on a Debian-like distribution.

sudo apt install python3.7 python3.7-dev

Finally, you should be able to compile YouCompleteMe with the following command.

python3.7 ~/.dot/vim/bundle/YouCompleteMe/install.py --clangd-completer

Update submodules

To update all submodules, use the following command.

git submodule update --rebase --remote
