# Dotsy
A Huge WIP... Infact most of it doesn't work so don't bother downloading yet 😂 It'll get there eventually 🤦
The idea behind this was to be able to manage and reinstall a config or profile from where ever you were in the file tree. For example
```sh
ls ~/
> ~/Dotfiles
> ~/dev
pwd
> ~/dev/supercool-project/
dotsy config -i neovim
# ^ This would install your neovim config without moving you
# out of the directory or context you're currently in (i've felt this is useful
# when I break things)
```
Getting started on a new machine would theoretically be as simple as running this after cloning your dotfiles
```sh
cargo install dotsy
dotsy init
# ^ After this you would have to fill in the config file with the location
# of your dotfiles but this step could be skipped if you have a .dotsyrc in your dotfiles repo
dotsy profile -i <name of profile to install>
```
## Planning
### Command structure?
- `dotsy profile -i <profile-name/'s'>`
- `dotsy profile -u <profile-name/'s'>`
- `dotsy config -i <config-name/'s>`
- `dotsy config -u <config-name/'s>`
- `dotsy config ls`
- `dotsy profile ls`
### File structure
- configs/
- config/
- \<name\>/
- \<name\>.json
- profiles/
- \<name\>.json
- .dotsyrc ( This will hold global options such as the package manager install
and uninstall command etc...)
### test-config.json
Everything will be optional
```json
{
"description": "Test config",
"links": [{ "from": "./test", "to": "~/test" }],
"directories": ["~/Test-Dir"],
"packages": ["npm"],
"shell": ["npm i test"],
"revert-shell": ["npm uninstall test"]
}
```
### profile.json example
Everything but configs will be optional
```json
{
"description": "Test profile",
"configs": ["test-config"],
"directories": ["~/Documents"],
"packages": ["nvim"],
"shell": ["npm i test"],
"revert-shell": ["npm uninstall test"]
}
```
