Bootstrapping Dependencies

Invoke the install-dependencies.sh script to ensure all workstation deps are present.

This will ensure programs like the following are installed:

• Homebrew/Linuxbrew
• NeoVim
• LunarVim
• Zap-Zsh
• Stow
• Volta

Furthermore, the script will proceed to brew install a list of casks/formulae as well.

Using Stow

Call stow {directory} from this project's root directory Example:

stow zsh

This will create a symlink between the previously stowed directory and contents in the Linux/Mac home dir (~/).

For instance, running stow zsh will create a symlink at ~/.zshrc and ~/.config/zsh/.

Using Mise

Mise is a way to install and manage different versions of software.

Installing Tools from Config Files

To install all the tools listed within the stowed config.toml file you simply have to run:

mise install

This works as well when using idiomatic versioning files like .nvmrc or .go-version.

Listing Installed, Active, and Remote Tools

To list all tools installed by mise run:

mise ls

To list tools available to install and their package versions run:

mise ls-remote {tool}[@{version}]

Example:

mise ls-remote node
mise ls-remote node@20

To view the latest version of a tool (and version) run:

mise latest {tool}[@{version}]

Example:

mise latest node
mise latest node@20

Using and Pinning Tools

To use a specific version of a tool run:

mise use {tool}[@{version}]

Example:

mise use node@20

Removing Tools

To remove a tool from mise run:

mise uninstall [--all] [--dry-run] {installed_tool}[@{version}]

Example:

mise uninstall node
mise uninstall node@20

Using TMUX

To ensure all tmux plugins are installed run:

First download the Tmux Plugin Manager (tpm):

git clone https://github.com/tmux-plugins/tpm ~/.tmux/plugins/tpm

Then run a Tmux session:

tmux

(leader key by default is <CTRL-B>) When inside of a tmux session press <leader> + I.

To view the various tmux commands related to sessions, windows, panes, etc. press <leader> + ?

To exit out of a pane, window, or session simply type exit at the terminal command line.

Updating Dependencies (TODO)

Invoke the update-dependencies.sh script manually to check for updates to all the workstation deps.

A goal in the future is to provide some Git Hooks that will run this when new code is pulled down from the remote branch.

Custom Functions

Recursively Remove

Invoke a recursive removal of a keyword using rrm {keyword} Example:

rrm "node_modules"

This will remove all node_modules directories at the root of the function invocation and any sub-directories as well.
