ReHome

Script to deploy and maintain home easily

• keep your dotfiles in repository
• define config: shell and dependencies in .rehome.json
• wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hiqdev/rehome/master/rehome ; python rehome init me/dotfiles
• Congrats! You're done with moving your home to new server.

Configuration

The main config file is .rehome.json

Here is example config:

{
    "dotfiles": "hiqsol/dotfiles",
    "shadows": {
        "prj/sol/shadow-home": "ssh://git.solex.me:222/git/sol/shadow-home"
    },
    "shell": "zsh",
    "repos": {
        ".vim/bundle/Vundle.vim": "VundleVim/Vundle.vim",
        "prj/hiqsol/quotes": "hiqsol/quotes",
        "prj/hiqdev/rehome": "hiqdev/rehome"
    },
    "installs": {
        "bin/zsh": "which zsh || echo apt-get install zsh",
        "bin/vim": "which vim || echo apt-get install vim",
        "bin/tmux": "which tmux || echo apt-get install tmux",
        "bin/composer": [
            "wget https://getcomposer.org/installer -O composer-setup.php",
            "php composer-setup.php --install-dir=bin --filename=composer",
            "rm composer-setup.php",
            "bin/composer global install"
        ]
    },
    "updates": {
        "bin/composer": [
            "bin/composer self-update",
            "bin/composer global update"
        ],
        "prj/hiqdev/hidev/vendor": [
            "cd prj/hiqdev/hidev ; composer update"
        ]
    }
}

Looks quite clear:

1. dotfiles - generally accessable dotfiles repository
2. shadows - protected (shadow) repositories with files to be simlinked into home
3. shell - shell to be set with chsh
4. repos - array of path => repo to be installed/updated to given paths
5. installs - array of path => commands to be run if path doesn't exist
6. updates - array of path => commands to be run on update

If you want run commands unconditionally just put them into installs or update section with unexistent path. See zsh, vim and tmux in example which check these commands availability.
