Modularize dotfiles through Pearl

Open fsquillace opened this issue 6 years ago • 2 comments

Hi,

First off, nerd fonts is really an awesome project! Thanks for creating it!

I came across your dotfiles which have been quite useful for me too. The only problem I found, like many other dotfile repos you can find in github is that they bundle multiple dotfiles all together and make it hard to be reusable. For this reason, I was thinking that you might be interested to use one of my project, Pearl: https://github.com/pearl-core/pearl

It would help you modularize, manage and interactively setup dotfiles or any script/program through simple hooks functions. Examples are:

  • nerdify - Nerdify, via nerd fonts, several programs such as vim, ranger, gitgutter, syntastic, etc
  • vim-colors - Interactvie vim theme setup
  • dot-vim - Base vim dotfile
  • dict - Contains dictionaries for vim
  • vim-all - Bundle multiple vim related packages (dotfile and vim plugin) to make an easy installation

There are many other packages available in: https://github.com/pearl-hub

They all contain a special directory pearl-config which make the magic happen. More details about how it works here.

Feel free to close this if the mentioned solution based on the Pearl tool does not suit your need. ;)

Thanks again!
