Dotfiles

This repo contains both my dotfiles as well as Ansible playbooks to provision new machines.

Use at your own risk. Untested except on my own El Capitan installs.

Playbooks

  • bootstrap.yml: SSH and Homebrew setup
  • main.yml: Pretty much everything else
  • imac.yml: For quieting down the broken HDD fan on my iMac
  • macbook_pro.yml: Remap Caps Lock to Control on the laptop

Usage

First, some steps need to be performed on the remote machine that I couldn't figure out how to automate:

  • Enable Remote Login in System Preferences -> Sharing.
  • Install the command line developer tools: xcode-select --install. (It looks like the Homebrew installer should be able to handle this, but I haven't been able to get it to work headless.)
  • Install Xcode: open 'https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/xcode/id497799835?mt=12'
  • Accept the Xcode license: sudo xcodebuild -license
  • Accept the sudo disclaimer: sudo -v

On the control machine:

brew install ansible
git clone --recursive git@github.com:kejadlen/dotfiles
cd dotfiles/ansible

echo HOST > hosts.private

ansible-playbook bootstrap.yml --ask-pass --ask-become-pass
ansible-playbook main.yml --ask-become-pass

A couple items that I haven't gotten around to automating yet that need to be manually run post-provisioning:

# Apply personal Terminal settings
open ~/.dotfiles/Alpha.terminal

# Symlink ~/.dotfiles to Dropbox
rm -rf ~/.dotfiles
ln -s ~/Dropbox/dotfiles ~/.dotfiles

# Add private SSH keys
ruby ~/.dotfiles/scripts/setup_ssh_keys.rb

Provisioning Locally

You can also use this to provision a machine by itself, although this won't be able to copy over OS X application settings, for obvious reasons.

# Install Homebrew
ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"

# Install ansible
brew install ansible

# Clone dotfiles
git clone --recursive https://github.com/kejadlen/dotfiles.git ~/.dotfiles

# Run Ansible
cd ~/.dotfiles/ansible
echo localhost > hosts.private
ansible-playbook main.yml --ask-pass --ask-become-pass

Development

Ansible tags are indispensible when tweaking the config:

- command: echo debug
  tags: debug
ansible-playbook main.yml --ask-become-pass --tags=debug
