Have a dotfiles directory with all your stuff in it? Have homemaker put everything in its right place.

homemaker in action

1. create a config.toml file either anywhere (and specify it when you run hm) or in ~/.config/homemaker/.
2. enter things to do things to in the file. example: ```

   config.toml

[[obj]] file = 'tmux.conf' source = '~/dotfiles/.tmux.conf' destination = '~/.tmux.conf' method = 'symlink'

[[obj]] task = 'zt' solution = 'cd ~/dotfiles/zt && git pull' dependencies = 'maim, slop'

[[obj]] task = 'maim_dependencies' solution = 'sudo apt install -y libxfixes-dev libglm-dev libxrandr-dev libglew-dev libegl1-mesa-dev libxcomposite-dev'

[[obj]] task = 'maim' source = '~/dotfiles/zt/maim' solution = 'cd ~/dotfiles/zt/maim; make clean; cmake -DCMAKEINSTALLPREFIX="/usr" ./ && make && sudo make install' method = 'execute' dependencies = 'maim_dependencies'

[[obj]] task = 'slop' source = '~/dotfiles/zt/slop' solution = 'cd ~/dotfiles/zt/slop; make clean; cmake -DCMAKEINSTALLPREFIX="/usr" ./ && make && sudo make install' method = 'execute'

[[obj]] task = 'slop' source = '~/dotfiles/zt/slop' solution = 'cd ~/dotfiles/zt/slop; make clean; cmake -DCMAKEINSTALLPREFIX="/usr" ./ && make && sudo make install' method = 'execute' `` 3.hm ~/path/to/your/config.toml`

why homemaker?

• compared to say, gnu stow, homemaker supports more than just creating a mirrored symlinked filesystem/
• dependency resolution:
  • specify a set of tasks to complete, each with their own dependencies, and watch as it completes them in some order that satisfies each tasks's dependencies.
  • for example, in the sample config.toml (the one i use, actually), maim depends on having some graphics libraries installed. i created a task called maim_dependencies, and hm will complete maim_dependencies before attempting to complete maim.
  • zt has two dependencies: maim and slop. hm will complete the entire dependency tree below zt before atttempting zt.
  • homemaker complains if the dependency tree cannot be solved, and hopefully shows you a handy explanation why.
