Ubuntu Post Installation Script and Config Files

License: MIT Tests

The script and config files in this folder allow you to quickly set up your Ubuntu installation with a reasonable developer configuration. Tested for Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. Most of the offered functionality also tested for Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, see section Compatibility.

Downloading

I suggest cloning this repository to ~/.dotfiles, though any other location will work as well. Just make sure to not move the folder after you started relying on the dotfiles in it.

git clone https://github.com/cbachhuber/dotfiles-and-post-installation-scripts.git ~/.dotfiles

Installation

Execute script setup.sh in the toplevel folder of this repository

.dotfiles/setup.sh

You will be asked to enter your sudo password for the apt operations.

Setup arguments

By default, setup.sh will work through all setup steps such a OS tweaks, program installation, git configuration etc. If you only want select a subset of these steps, use the below flags. As soon as a flag is given, the other steps are not implicitly executed, they need to be called explicitly per flag as well.

  • Flag -o or --os-tweaks walks you through OS tweaking steps such as key repeat adjustment and configuration of gnome shell extensions.
  • Flag -p or --programs installs programs such as chromium, vlc, gimp, and dev tools such as python3, terminator, git, and zsh.
  • Flag -g or --configure-git guides you through common git configuration steps such as setting up your git user name and mail, git pager, global excludesFile, and git aliases.
  • Flag -v or --configure-vim guides you through common neovim configuration steps such as sourcing ~/.zshrc and installing essential plugins such as vim-fugitive, vim-airline, and vim-nerdtree.
  • Flag -z or --configure-zsh guides you through common zsh and oh-my-zsh configuration steps such as setting zsh as your default shell and installing oh-my-zsh plugins such as Powerlevel 10k and zsh-autosuggestions.
  • Flag -h or --help displays a help menu and exits the script.
