# dotfiles Read-Me and Roadmap

## Quick-Start

There are two ways of using these dotfiles:

To fully provision a completely new arch linux setup

`$ curl -Lks http://bit.do/marty-dot | sudo /bin/bash`

Or, to **only** use these dotfiles two steps are necessary

1. install git & zsh if not already installed on your machine (should often already be available)
1. run `chsh -s /bin/zsh` to switch the shell to zsh
1. go to home directory & run `git clone https://gitlab.com/marty-oehme/dotfiles.git df && cp -rf df/.git ~/ && rm -rf df && cd ~ && git checkout -f master`
1. install tmux (or remove the corresponding tmux config entries) [this should not be necessary anymore since tmux scripts check for an installation]
1. install a powerline compatible font (nerdfont patched fira code is what I use)

## Checklist and Things to look at for dotfiles and Linux workflow

* Bring this readme up to date with new dotfiles structure/installation/content

* Überzug as terminal picture preview, [here](https://github.com/seebye/ueberzug)
* vifm as ranger replacement - check the individual advantages, disadvantages
* neomutt / mutt-wizard as terminal email-client
* newboat as rss client
* think about calcurse as calendar app (would have to import/export from gcal)
* get some kind of todoist integration going, so we can use todoist from the cmdline
* set up qutebrowser for quicklinks, bookmarklets, url-redirection
* set up better clipboard integration across vim, tmux, x
* [ ] fuzzysearch
  * [ ] search my dotfiles for an app name and open the file in vim [here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vt33Hp-4RXg)
  * [ ] search the files in the current directory and allow me to open
  * [ ] search everywhere?
  * [ ] search my notes (title and text) and open in editor
  * [ ] allow these searches from dmenu
  * [ ] add shortcuts to search: <super>+fe - dotfiles, <super>+ff - current dir, <super>+fa - everywhere,<super>+fd - notes
* [ ] dmenu scripts
  * [ ] surfraw to search internet from dmenu

## Introduction & Idea

[The basic ideas](https://www.anishathalye.com/2014/08/03/managing-your-dotfiles/)

[My Set-Up](https://developer.atlassian.com/blog/2016/02/best-way-to-store-dotfiles-git-bare-repo/) -- just exchange alias config with alias dotfiles (is already done *in* the dotfiles)

## Examples & Inspiration


[holman dotfiles](https://github.com/holman/dotfiles) -- dotfiles from the dotfiles-are-meant-to-be-forked dude. Peruse and steal what looks good

[LukeSmith dotfiles / LARBS setup, use it for my initial bootstrap](https://github.com/LukeSmithxyz/LARBS)

[Github does dotfiles, a whole array of dotfile setups to choose from](https://dotfiles.github.io)

[awesome dotfiles](https://github.com/webpro/awesome-dotfiles) -- way more info on dotfiles than you ever needed

[VSCode & Vue focused dotfiles setup](https://github.com/sobolevn/dotfiles) -- looks interesting, maybe steal some tidbits

[Various tidbits and aliases](https://github.com/ahmedelgabri/talks/blob/master/cli-and-git/cli-and-git.md)

# Roadmap

## Perfectly setting up Arch

- [ ] Fix ReadMe.txt being copied into home dir when cloning dotfiles.
- [x] Re-Map caps lock to ctrl
- [ ] Automatically switch between US/DE keyboard layout for laptop/pc
	this should probably be done with loadkeys and keymap per pc in zshrc or a config derivative
	see esp https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Linux_console/Keyboard_configuration#Creating_a_custom_keymap
	so we could load de-latin1/en-us, specified in the branch that is checked out. and then apply a custom
	keymap over it to apply universal customizations, like Capslock=Control and so on.
- [ ] automatically install xcape to enable capslock remapping functionality

## Overall Roadmap

- [x] Set up Copy and Paste in X  -- using clipmenud&clipnotify.
      I can copy stuff to and from urxvt w alt+ctrl+c/v, w/o alt for the rest of the system. invoke clipmenu to show last clips.
- [-] Install & Configure Compton
	Put on hold for now. What do I need it for? transparency? shadows? maybe removing screen-tearing.
	: Will perhaps re-investigate when i want to use e.g. windowsflash - to highlight the currently active i3 window
- [ ] Setup i3
	- [x] Window switching shortcuts
	- [x] Set up leaving question w/o mouse
	- [x] Closing/Opening of windows shortcuts
	- [ ] Multi-monitor setup (w/ barrier)
	- [ ] Set up initial load of windows to specific screens
- [ ] Get Barrier running
	Barrier by default installs the deps for its GUI (qt5 etc) -- if no GUI is necessary run it with build args to *not* make GUI (available in aur)
	: try to get a nicely working setup in the gui in antergos and then copy this to this .file repo, no gui necessary
- [-] Install & Configure rofi
	Happy with dmenu for now
	Could use https://github.com/enkore/j4-dmenu-desktop to get a faster menu, independent of i3.
- [ ] Install & Configure polybar
    - [theme ideas](https://github.com/adi1090x/polybar-themes)
    - [community scripts](https://github.com/x70b1/polybar-scripts)
- [ ] Set up ranger
	Set up video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L6Vu7WPkoJo
	- [ ] set up fzf for ranger
	- [ ] set up movement,newtab,copy,move behavior
	- [ ] set up visual selection
	- [ ] set up tar-ing/untar-ing
- [ ] Set up sxiv/feh
- [ ] set up (n)vim
	set jk to get out of modes
	-> using xcape can accomplish mapping escape to capslock when released on its own.
	That way we can get out of insert mode with jk AND capslock, whichever we prefer.
- [ ] Get Password Sync going (enpass?)
- [ ] Set up integrations with my hosted setup
- [ ] dmenu script and look [see ~10minutes in for automounting using dmenu example](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GKviflL9XeI)
- [ ] Set up *in the cloud* ide and dev environment (gce perhaps)
- [ ] Investigate mondo - automatic re-theming (can cycle through multiple themes and reload your .files etc)
- [ ] Use tmux for one main editing session. Use a single vim instance within this session.
	for music, quick exporations etc other urxvt instances are fine?
	can we use i3 to, when pressing mod+enter, not just open a new term but find out if tmux is running
	and either open new tmux pane or new term if it is not?
- [ ] Look at ack to replace grep (https://beyondgrep.com/why-ack/) -> look at the talk for ideas of customization


## Restoration & Atomicity

- [ ] Make it possible to get an arch install up and running with the same settings with a couple commands either
	- [ ] Set up file system backup to restore from (borg backup)
	- [ ] Set up meta-packages & dotfiles to clone from
- [ ] Set up ansible to automatically bootstrap Arch for both desktop & laptop

## Dotfiles

- [x] Make the dotfiles status command automatically not show untracked files (i.e. most files in homedir) -- [fix](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Dotfiles)

## ZSH, dotfile installation

- ~
- .zgenrc
- .zshrc
- .zgenrc.d/
- .Xresources
- .xres/
- .config/
- .tmux/

- .zsh/
- .zgen/

- [x] I would like my home folder to be a bit more manageable, ideally it would *only* contain
	- .zshrc
	- .bashrc
	- .xinitrc
	- .Xresources as files and:
	- .ssh/ -- ssh related configuration ->
		*secret* stuff which should not be kept in the repo
		(an ssh setup script e.g. should be kept in dotfiles if it does not contain keys etc.)
	- .config/ -- program configuration.
		If it changes how *another* program on the computer runs, it should go in configuration.
	- .dotfiles/ -- the version history etc of my dotfiles (i.e. handled by git)
- [x] Re-Organize zsh.d/ config files
	after organizational pattern in .zshrc (e.g. move k-alias script to internal script dependencies)
- [ ] Modify larbs setup script to ask for dotfile installation,
- [ ] Installation should ask *which* submodules of programs in csv to install:
	(should be distinguished somehow, perhaps with tags) as in
	'Audio' packages, 'Music' packages, 'xorg' packages, 'Window Manager' packages (maybe use pkg groups?)
- [x] todo command alias to open up a preconfigured todo file OR a todoist cli (if i find a good one)
	https://github.com/sachaos/todoist looks good. Needs to be synched and works best with peco -- see readme.
	A working alias set might be useful here to set up commands for interaction
	Todo Alias opens ROADMAP.md for now.
- [ ] readme command alias to open up the current project README.md
	or ask to create a new one if none is found in current dir / parent dirs
- [ ] check for existence of xcape before trying to invoke its command in 5-capslock-to-ctrl
- [ ] make :q quit the terminal (perhaps doing alias as exit), :wq save the session in tmux and quit out of it

## URxvt

- [ ] Enable Ctrl+Arrows to jump back/forward word-wise;
- [x] enable (easy) copy/paste - Ctrl+Shift+C/V?
	Copy paste works with Alt+Ctrl+C/V, text needs to be selected (only mouse for now) - does *not* work in tmux yet
- [ ] Select text with Shift keys
- [ ] enable some sort of command mode a-la vim?
- [ ] Unify tab switching -- mod+num for workspaces, alt+num for tabs (in qutebrowser,urxvt,fm,...)
- [ ] enable unified copy paste throughout whole system
- [ ] enable vim quitting - q to exit session, wq to save as tmux session and quit

## mpv

- [ ] Enable Seeking with vim controls (hjkl)
- [ ] Open file shortcut?
- [ ] Set up playlist creation from browser/yt etc
	https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/blob/master/TOOLS/umpv
	will have 'umpv' command be a unique mpv instance for which any additional play item will get
	*appended* -> perfect for playists. (see script for more info)

## qutebrowser

- [x] Open current page/ hint link in mpv (Ctrl + m / M)
	https://qutebrowser.org/FAQ.html - commands for settings.
- [ ] Make it use umpv script in dotfiles confing to enable playlist queuing.
- [ ] Fix for getting stuck in text-field:
	Either press tab (works sometimes to select next element)
	or do this https://github.com/qutebrowser/qutebrowser/issues/2668
## i3

- [x] Switch to hjkl
- [ ] Make custom workspaces: 1 - browser, 2 - term, 9 - agenda, 0 - music
- [ ] Superkey to Right Shift
- [x] Alias Capslock to shift - aliased to Ctrl now
- [ ] make it work with laptop as 2nd monitor
	if I switch over to left window from i3, i want to land on the right window of my laptop as the next selection


## Various important packages

- i3 [i3blocks, i3gaps]
- tmux
- pulseaudio (&pavucontrol)
- lightdm, lightdm-mini-greeter
- nvidia, nvidia-utils etc
- xorg-xinit, xorg-server, xorg-apps
- mopidy, mopidy-spotify, mopidy-spotify-tunigo, ncmpcpp or iris
- xcape - to enable capslock to act as control and escape at the same time

	- [x] Closing/Opening of windows shortcuts
	- [ ] Multi-monitor setup (w/ barrier)
	- [ ] Set up initial load of windows to specific screens
- [ ] Get Barrier running
	Barrier by default installs the deps for its GUI (qt5 etc) -- if no GUI is necessary run it with build args to *not* make GUI (available in aur)
	: try to get a nicely working setup in the gui in antergos and then copy this to this .file repo, no gui necessary
- [-] Install & Configure rofi
	Happy with dmenu for now
	Could use https://github.com/enkore/j4-dmenu-desktop to get a faster menu, independent of i3.
- [ ] Install & Configure polybar
    - [theme ideas](https://github.com/adi1090x/polybar-themes)
    - [community scripts](https://github.com/x70b1/polybar-scripts)
- [ ] Set up ranger
	Set up video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L6Vu7WPkoJo
	- [ ] set up fzf for ranger
	- [ ] set up movement,newtab,copy,move behavior
	- [ ] set up visual selection
	- [ ] set up tar-ing/untar-ing
- [ ] Set up sxiv/feh
- [ ] set up (n)vim
	set jk to get out of modes
	-> using xcape can accomplish mapping escape to capslock when released on its own.
	That way we can get out of insert mode with jk AND capslock, whichever we prefer.
- [ ] Get Password Sync going (enpass?)
- [ ] Set up integrations with my hosted setup
- [ ] dmenu script and look [see ~10minutes in for automounting using dmenu example](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GKviflL9XeI)
- [ ] Set up *in the cloud* ide and dev environment (gce perhaps)
- [ ] Investigate mondo - automatic re-theming (can cycle through multiple themes and reload your .files etc)
- [ ] Use tmux for one main editing session. Use a single vim instance within this session.
	for music, quick exporations etc other urxvt instances are fine?
	can we use i3 to, when pressing mod+enter, not just open a new term but find out if tmux is running
	and either open new tmux pane or new term if it is not?
- [ ] Look at ack to replace grep (https://beyondgrep.com/why-ack/) -> look at the talk for ideas of customization


## Restoration & Atomicity

- [ ] Make it possible to get an arch install up and running with the same settings with a couple commands either
	- [ ] Set up file system backup to restore from (borg backup)
	- [ ] Set up meta-packages & dotfiles to clone from
- [ ] Set up ansible to automatically bootstrap Arch for both desktop & laptop

## Dotfiles

- [x] Make the dotfiles status command automatically not show untracked files (i.e. most files in homedir) -- [fix](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Dotfiles)

## ZSH, dotfile installation

- ~
- .zgenrc
- .zshrc
- .zgenrc.d/
- .Xresources
- .xres/
- .config/
- .tmux/

- .zsh/
- .zgen/

- [x] I would like my home folder to be a bit more manageable, ideally it would *only* contain
	- .zshrc
	- .bashrc
	- .xinitrc
	- .Xresources as files and:
	- .ssh/ -- ssh related configuration ->
		*secret* stuff which should not be kept in the repo
		(an ssh setup script e.g. should be kept in dotfiles if it does not contain keys etc.)
	- .config/ -- program configuration.
		If it changes how *another* program on the computer runs, it should go in configuration.
	- .dotfiles/ -- the version history etc of my dotfiles (i.e. handled by git)
- [x] Re-Organize zsh.d/ config files
	after organizational pattern in .zshrc (e.g. move k-alias script to internal script dependencies)
- [ ] Modify larbs setup script to ask for dotfile installation,
- [ ] Installation should ask *which* submodules of programs in csv to install:
	(should be distinguished somehow, perhaps with tags) as in
	'Audio' packages, 'Music' packages, 'xorg' packages, 'Window Manager' packages (maybe use pkg groups?)
- [x] todo command alias to open up a preconfigured todo file OR a todoist cli (if i find a good one)
	https://github.com/sachaos/todoist looks good. Needs to be synched and works best with peco -- see readme.
	A working alias set might be useful here to set up commands for interaction
	Todo Alias opens ROADMAP.md for now.
- [ ] readme command alias to open up the current project README.md
	or ask to create a new one if none is found in current dir / parent dirs
- [ ] check for existence of xcape before trying to invoke its command in 5-capslock-to-ctrl
- [ ] make :q quit the terminal (perhaps doing alias as exit), :wq save the session in tmux and quit out of it

## URxvt

- [ ] Enable Ctrl+Arrows to jump back/forward word-wise;
- [x] enable (easy) copy/paste - Ctrl+Shift+C/V?
	Copy paste works with Alt+Ctrl+C/V, text needs to be selected (only mouse for now) - does *not* work in tmux yet
- [ ] Select text with Shift keys
- [ ] enable some sort of command mode a-la vim?
- [ ] Unify tab switching -- mod+num for workspaces, alt+num for tabs (in qutebrowser,urxvt,fm,...)
- [ ] enable unified copy paste throughout whole system
- [ ] enable vim quitting - q to exit session, wq to save as tmux session and quit

## mpv

- [ ] Enable Seeking with vim controls (hjkl)
- [ ] Open file shortcut?
- [ ] Set up playlist creation from browser/yt etc
	https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/blob/master/TOOLS/umpv
	will have 'umpv' command be a unique mpv instance for which any additional play item will get
	*appended* -> perfect for playists. (see script for more info)

## qutebrowser

- [x] Open current page/ hint link in mpv (Ctrl + m / M)
	https://qutebrowser.org/FAQ.html - commands for settings.
- [ ] Make it use umpv script in dotfiles confing to enable playlist queuing.
- [ ] Fix for getting stuck in text-field:
	Either press tab (works sometimes to select next element)
	or do this https://github.com/qutebrowser/qutebrowser/issues/2668
## i3

- [x] Switch to hjkl
- [ ] Make custom workspaces: 1 - browser, 2 - term, 9 - agenda, 0 - music
- [ ] Superkey to Right Shift
- [x] Alias Capslock to shift - aliased to Ctrl now
- [ ] make it work with laptop as 2nd monitor
	if I switch over to left window from i3, i want to land on the right window of my laptop as the next selection


## Various important packages

- i3 [i3blocks, i3gaps]
- tmux
- pulseaudio (&pavucontrol)
- lightdm, lightdm-mini-greeter
- nvidia, nvidia-utils etc
- xorg-xinit, xorg-server, xorg-apps
- mopidy, mopidy-spotify, mopidy-spotify-tunigo, ncmpcpp or iris
- xcape - to enable capslock to act as control and escape at the same time

[The basic ideas](https://www.anishathalye.com/2014/08/03/managing-your-dotfiles/)

[My Set-Up](https://developer.atlassian.com/blog/2016/02/best-way-to-store-dotfiles-git-bare-repo/) -- just exchange alias config with alias dotfiles (is already done *in* the dotfiles)

## Examples & Inspiration


[holman dotfiles](https://github.com/holman/dotfiles) -- dotfiles from the dotfiles-are-meant-to-be-forked dude. Peruse and steal what looks good

# Roadmap

## Perfectly setting up Arch

- [ ] Fix ReadMe.txt being copied into home dir when cloning dotfiles.
- [x] Re-Map caps lock to ctrl
- [ ] Automatically switch between US/DE keyboard layout for laptop/pc
	this should probably be done with loadkeys and keymap per pc in zshrc or a config derivative
	see esp https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Linux_console/Keyboard_configuration#Creating_a_custom_keymap
	so we could load de-latin1/en-us, specified in the branch that is checked out. and then apply a custom
	keymap over it to apply universal customizations, like Capslock=Control and so on.
- [ ] automatically install xcape to enable capslock remapping functionality

## Overall Roadmap

- [x] Set up Copy and Paste in X  -- using clipmenud&clipnotify.
      I can copy stuff to and from urxvt w alt+ctrl+c/v, w/o alt for the rest of the system. invoke clipmenu to show last clips.
- [-] Install & Configure Compton
	Put on hold for now. What do I need it for? transparency? shadows? maybe removing screen-tearing.
	: Will perhaps re-investigate when i want to use e.g. windowsflash - to highlight the currently active i3 window
- [ ] Setup i3
	- [x] Window switching shortcuts
	- [x] Set up leaving question w/o mouse
	- [x] Closing/Opening of windows shortcuts
	- [ ] Multi-monitor setup (w/ barrier)
