Dotfiles

I automated my development setup with Ansible.

Core Tools

• Shell: fish
• Terminal: WezTerm / Ghostty
• Prompt: Starship
• Editor: Neovim
• Notes: Obsidian integrated in Neovim with obsidian.nvim

Getting Started

Quick Start

git clone https://github.com/bnidev/dotfiles.git ~/.dotfiles
~/.dotfiles/bin/dotfiles

The wrapper script will:

• Detect your OS and install dependencies
• Clone/pull the dotfiles repository
• Prompt to generate SSH keys if needed
• Copy the config template to ~/.config/dotfiles/config.yml
• Run the full playbook

Running Specific Roles

Target one or more roles (comma-separated):

~/.dotfiles/bin/dotfiles -t neovim
~/.dotfiles/bin/dotfiles -t neovim,fish,git

Dry-Run Mode

Preview changes without applying:

dotfiles --check --diff
