Synopsis

  --dry              Do not commit changes to disk.
  --select TEXT      Select a subset of hydrators to run (comma separated).

  auth-status  Check the filesystem authentication status.
  login        Authenticate for a filesystem.

Features

• YAML-configuration for Bash profile and Git config
• Execute shell commands with access to external file systems (e.g. Nextcloud)

Roadmap

• Extend YAML configuration (useful for Work profiles)
• Application directory finders (e.g. to discover VScode application directory)

Example

In a Git repository, create a file called hydrator.yml. In that file you can configure files that will be produced from the YAML configuration or from external sources. External sources are "file systems" that can be configured in the same file.

filesystems:
  nextcloud: {type: nextcloud, server-url: https://my-cloud.example.org}

hydrators:
  gpg:
    type: commands
    commands:
    - gpg --import [[nextcloud://dotfiles/gpgp/master.key]]

  ssh:
    type: commands
    commands:
    - cp nextcloud://dotfiles/ssh/ida_rsa{,.pub} ~./ssh
    - chmod 600 ~/.ssh/id_rsa{,.pub}

  bash_profile:
    type: bash_profile
    aliases:
      ll: ls -l
    path:
    - ~/.local/bin

In order to access files your Nextcloud, Hydrator first needs to authenticate.

$ hydrator login nextcloud

Then you simply run Hydrator to execute all steps. You can select a subset of hydrators using the --select h1,h2,... option. Add --dry to not commit changes to disk, and -v,--verbose or more logs.

$ hydrator
