dfmpy 0.0.1

Another dotfiles manager.

dfmpy

Sometimes pronounced "diff-em-py" and is a small play on words. dfmpy is another Dot-Files Manager, but with robust features that can essentially "diff" the dotfiles actually installed versus the expected installed files. Hence the "diff-em".

dfmpy is not just another dotfiles manager, it supports multiple environments based on hostname, system type, or a combination of the two. It also ignores files/directories based on user defined globs which can be particularly useful if dfmpy has to traverse directories that have large I/O latencies (large directory inodes, too many files to stat, or even just network mounted directories, etc.).

Furthermore, dfmpy is fully customizable! See the documentation on this page's Usage section.

Installation

Since dfmpy is a registered Python package on Pypi, you can install dfmpy through the standard pip methods.

Install locally as a normal user:

pip3 install --user --force --upgrade dfmpy

Or install globally, as the all powerful root, for all users of the system:
