tod 0.1

A simple dotfiles manager. Uses symlinks and a git repo.

Tod

Central management of your personal configs using a git repository and symlinks.

Installation

Install the client:

python setup.py install

Point to your configuration repo:

# Environment variables will be expanded.
export $TOD_FILE_REPO='/path/to/your/repo'

Config Repo Layout

The Config Repo format is as follows:

Root Config Directory
├── files
│   ├── file_a
│   ├── ...
│   └── file_z
└── mapping.ini

The mapping.ini file maps configs from the files directory to their installation path. Currently everything lives under a default section, and all mappings are of the form CONFIG_FILE: INSTALL_PATH. An example config is shown below. It would map $REPO/files/vimrc to ~/.vimrc, and REPO/files/tmux.conf to ~/.tmux.conf:

[default]
vimrc: ~/.vimrc
tmux.conf: ~/.tmux.conf.

Usage

See the current status of the the config mapping:

tod status

Link a single config into the system:

tod link vimrc

Unlink a single config from the system:

tod unlink vimrc

TODO

• Remove dependancy on git

• Add multi-environment linking * specify new config sections. (ie, osx, ubuntu, etc.) * base off of defualt config?
