dots: emprespresso's kawaii dotfiles manager ✧˖°˖✧

dots is a cute dotfiles manager with jinja2 templating and gnu stow integration (=^･ω･^=)

it makes your configuration files more organized and portable by combining templating with symlink management. dots handles system-specific configurations through context variables in one json file, so you can maintain a single set of dotfiles across different machines.

installation

git clone ssh://src.liz.coffee:2222/dotfiles
cd dotfiles

python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -e .

dots --help

requirements (=・ｪ・=)

python 3.8+ and
gnu stow (brew install stow on macos, defs in other package managers)

usage

# compile your dotfiles templates
dots --compile

# stow them to your home directory
dots --stow

# remove the symlinks
dots --clean

# in case something breaks
dots --compile --stow --clean --verbose

dots will look for templates in the dots/ directory and process any files with the .j2 extension. system and platform detection happens automatically through the scripts in dots/home/scripts/.
