Dev Setup

Introduction

It's a simple one command linux development setup. It uses bash script and makefile to automate the instllation.

Supported Platforms

• Ubuntu 16.04 LTS(Tested)
• Ubuntu 17.10 LTS(Tested)
• Ubuntu 18.04 LTS(Tested)(Except for docker)
• It should also work on debian based other distros as well.

Installation

Installation is pretty much easy. You just need to select which app you want to install and see the following for a perticular installation command.

I would suggest always install the base script first for other scripts to work properly.

$ make help

    make <target>

Testing

• It uses Shellcheck to test the scripts. It can be done in two ways

  • Using Docker
    make test
  • Using Shellcheck Binary
    ./test.sh

• Test the script by running on your machine and see if it gets installed correctly.

Formatting

Though this step is not mandatory but I do encourage people to format their shell scripts. It uses shfmt to format the scripts. To format your script just run.

make format

It uses Google's Style guide to format the script.

Motivation

TODO: Put the motivation in more sane words.

So the story behind this repo is quite amazing. So I being a lazy ass and a linux nerd(I experiment a lot with my machines) which most of the time(almost all time ) used to break something and when I try fixing that I end up make a complete mesh of my machine so I have to use the ultimate weapon of every developer that is clean install my machine. I know that sucks because you have to setup everything from scratch. So I kind of thought why don't I have something to automate all this bullshit donkey work by just running simple command. I evaluated few of the options like vagrant and docker but I kind of use docker to run almost evrything but then too I needed do few of the basic setup. Vagrant is vmbox underneath which makes it heavy as I don't have a ultimate beast machine yet. Also I have come across the Boxen but that is too much for setting up personal machine because it uses puppet which not too easy to setup, I don't wanted to go down the puppet rabbit hole. So I thought let's go bash way.
