||||
|
||||
The config file (defaults to *config.yaml*) is a yaml file containing
|
||||
the following entries:
|
||||
|
||||
* **config** entry: contains settings for the deployment
|
||||
* `backup`: create a backup of the dotfile in case it differs from the

one that will be installed by dotdrop
|

* `create`: create directory hierarchy when installing dotfiles if

it doesn't exist

|

|
||||
## Use transformations
|
||||
|
||||
Transformation actions are used to transform a dotfile before it is
|
||||
installed. They work like [actions](#use-actions) but are executed before the
|
||||
dotfile is installed to transform the source.
|
||||
|
||||
Transformation commands have two arguments:
|
||||
|
||||
* **{0}** will be replaced with the dotfile to process
|
||||
* **{1}** will be replaced with a temporary file to store the result of the transformation
|
||||
|
||||
A typical use-case for transformations is when the dotfile needs to be
|
||||
stored encrypted.
|
||||
|
||||
Here's an example of part of a config file to use gpg encrypted dotfiles:
|
||||
```
|
||||
dotfiles:
|
||||
f_secret:
|
||||
dst: ~/.secret
|
||||
src: secret
|
||||
trans:
|
||||
- gpg
|
||||
trans:
|
||||
gpg: gpg2 -q --for-your-eyes-only --no-tty -d {0} > {1}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The above config allows to store the dotfile `~/.secret` encrypted in the *dotfiles*
|
||||
directory and uses gpg to decrypt it when install is run.
|
||||
|
||||
Here's how to deploy the above solution:
|
||||
|
||||
* import the clear dotfile (creates the correct entries in the config file)
|
||||
```
|
||||
./dotdrop.sh import ~/.secret
|
||||
```
|
||||
* encrypt the original dotfile
|
||||
```
|
||||
<some-gpg-command> ~/.secret
|
||||
```
|
||||
* overwrite the dotfile with the encrypted version
|
||||
```
|
||||
cp <encrypted-version-of-secret> dotfiles/secret
|
||||
```
|
||||
* edit the config file and add the transformation to the dotfile
|
||||
* commit and push the changes
|
||||
|
||||
## Update dotdrop
|
||||
|
||||
If used as a submodule, update it with
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
$ git submodule foreach git pull origin master
|
||||
$ git add dotdrop
|
||||
$ git commit -m 'update dotdrop'
|
||||
$ git push
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Through pypi:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
$ sudo pip3 install dotdrop --upgrade
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Update dotfiles
|
||||
|
||||
Dotfiles managed by dotdrop can be updated using the `update` command.
|
||||
There are two cases:
|
||||
|
||||
* the dotfile doesn't use [templating](#template): the new version of the dotfile is copied to the
|
||||
*dotfiles* directory and overwrites the old version. If git is used to version the dotfiles stored
|
||||
by dotdrop, the git command `diff` can be used to view the changes.
|
||||
* the dotfile uses [templating](#template): the dotfile must be manually updated, the use of
|
||||
the dotdrop command `compare` can be helpful to identify the changes to apply to the template.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
$ dotdrop.sh update ~/.vimrc
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Store sensitive dotfiles
|
||||
|
||||
Two solutions exist, the first one using an unversioned file (see [Environment variables](#environment-variables))
|
||||
and the second using transformations (see [Transformations](#use-transformations)).
