Description: # dotrunner

Use [`dotrunner`](https://github.com/jondot/dotrunner) and [`dotlinker`](https://github.com/jondot/dotlinker) to build a fantastically aesthetic macOS dotfiles set up.

✅ Organize by topics (folder modules), i.e. 'nodejs', 'osx', and 'python'.
✅ DAG (Directed Acyclic Graph) based runner for a powerful dependency system.
✅ No shell scripts, gunk, yuck, and hairballs required

Here's an example dotfiles repo:

```
~/.dotfiles
asdf/
brew/
install.yml
Brewfile
python/
osx/
nodejs/
.npmrc.symlink
install.yml
fonts/
```

And here's an example `install.yml` taken from the `nodejs` module:

```yaml
script: npm i -g yarn
deps:
- asdf
```

## Quick Start

Note: check out the [example](example/) if you'd like to test this all out on a Docker container instance.

Install:

```
$ pip install dotrunner dotlinker
```

Dry run:

```
$ dotrunner ~/.dotfiles --dry-run
```

And finally, apply (this will obviously change your system!):

```
$ dotrunner ~/.dotfiles
```

## Building a Dotfiles System with dotrunner

This layout describes a system that installs apps (with `homebrew`), development tools (with `asdf`), nodejs tools (with `install.sh`) and some system defaults (with `set-defaults.sh`):

```
asdf/ <----- a 'module'
install.yml <----- a module install file. required.
Asdffile
brew/
install.yml
Brewfile
nodejs/
.npmrc.symlink <--- this is handled by dotlinker, see
https://github.com/jondot/dotlinker
install.yml
install.sh
osx/
install.yml
set-defaults.sh
```

This system follows a few simple principles:

* Every directory is a _module_ if it has an `install.yml` file and it doesn't start with a dash (-).
* Each module can describe `deps` (dependencies) and a `script` to run.
* Each module actions must be idempotent: running the same script multiple times will have the same result. In other words `dotrunner` will happily run your scripts again on reruns/failures and you're responsible to do validation/checks in your scripts.

Here are a few examples of an `install.yml` file:

No dependencies:

```yaml
script: sh ./install.sh
```

Has depdendencies but no `script`, it will use `./install` script by default.

```yaml
deps:
- brew
- osx
```

Has both dependencies and a `script` which points to an executable script:

```yaml
script: ./install.sh
deps:
- brew
- osx
```
