sidoma

Simple Dotfile Manager

What does this application do?

By default sidoma will create symlinks from all directories in the dotfile directory to $XDG_CONFIG_HOME.

~/
└── dotfiles/
    ├── nvim/
    ├── bspwm/
    └── polybar/

After running sidoma links create, the following symlinks have been created in .config:

~/
└── .config/
    ├── nvim    ➔ ../dotfiles/nvim/
    ├── bspwm   ➔ ../dotfiles/bspwm/
    └── polybar ➔ ../dotfiles/polybar/

To override the default behavior create a .link file inside any directory. An empty link file will result in the folder being ignored.

The .link file can be used to specify symlinks manually, overwriting the default behavior.

$ cat ~/dotfiles/bash/.link
bashrc ~/.bashrc

The following directory structure:

~/
└── dotfiles/
    └── bash/
        ├── bashrc
        └── .link

After running sidoma link create:

~/
└── .bashrc ➔ dotfiles/bash/bashrc

Tell sidoma where your dotfiles are located:

sidoma init <path to dotfile dir>
