Ubuntu config

Simple setup (fewer steps)

wget https://github.com/jasonhu5/config/archive/master.zip && \
unzip master.zip && \
rm master.zip && \
cd config-master

• To setup a headless device:

  sudo bash install.sh $USER headless 2>&1 | tee /tmp/initial_setup.log
  

• To setup a desktop device (with more GUI applications):

  sudo bash install.sh $USER desktop 2>&1 | tee /tmp/initial_setup.log
  

The setup script will print to screen and log the same contents to /tmp/initial_setup.log.

Step by step

• .bashrc
• tmux

  mv .tmux ~ && mv .tmux.conf ~
  

  • Add plugins

    git clone https://github.com/tmux-plugins/tpm ~/.tmux/plugins/tpm
    

  • Copy text selected
    • install xclip first: sudo apt update && sudo apt install -y xclip
• inputrc
• vim
  • (maybe? a bit hard to configure this) YouCompleteMe
• guake terminal: sudo apt-get install guake -y

Ubuntu adjust partition

• use gparted
• remember to update grub after partition change influencing boot drive
• mount external disks
• backup folders

CopyQ

• (Reference)

  sudo add-apt-repository ppa:hluk/copyq -y && \
  sudo apt update -y && \
  sudo apt install copyq -y
  

Fish

TODO: make this easier

1. install fish

   sudo apt-add-repository ppa:fish-shell/release-3 -y && \
   sudo apt-get update -y && \
   sudo apt-get install fish -y

   • Optional reference to make it the default shell: here
2. Enter fish shell

   fish
   

3. config colors (web GUI)

   # configure the color, to e.g. Dracula
   fish_config
   

4. install fisher plugin manager (ref)

   curl -sL https://git.io/fisher | source && fisher install jorgebucaran/fisher
   
   

5. install packages required by some plugins
   • fonts required for tide (ref)
     • MesloLGS NF Regular.ttf
     • MesloLGS NF Bold.ttf
     • MesloLGS NF Italic.ttf
     • MesloLGS NF Bold Italic.ttf
     • Also, set the terminal font to one of these
   • packages required by PatrickF1/fzf (ref)
     • In fish shell:

       mkdir -p ~/.local/bin && \
       # fzf
       git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/junegunn/fzf.git ~/.fzf && \
       ~/.fzf/install && \
       # fd
       sudo apt install fd-find -y && \
       ln -s (which fdfind) ~/.local/bin/fd &&\
       # bat
       sudo apt install bat -y && \
       ln -s /usr/bin/batcat ~/.local/bin/bat

6. install plugins with fisher

   fisher install jorgebucaran/fisher && \
   # fisher install franciscolourenco/done && \  # seems problematic
   fisher install PatrickF1/fzf.fish && \
   fisher install IlanCosman/tide && \
   fisher install edc/bass    # using bash utilities in fish, check out https://github.com/edc/bass
   

7. move config folder to destined

   mkdir -p ~/.config/fish && \
   cp .config/fish/config.fish ~/.config/fish
   

8. NOTE: if fuzzy find is not working properly, make sure the versions of dependencies are met: requirements
