ditto-dotfiles v0.0.3

Ditto: A dotfile manager

Ditto is a small NPM package I made for managing my dotfiles

Installation

This works on Linux and Mac (Windows is WIP). Ditto requires Node v8.5.0+

npm install -g ditto

Setup

To get started. Run ditto. This will create a .dotfiles folder in the root of your home directory and a config.json file for your configuration.

Adding Jobs:

In ~/.dotfiles/config.json, edit the jobs array, adding an object for every job

{
    "name": "", // job name
    "path": "", // path after basePath (ie. /.zshrc or /.vim)
    "newName": "", // what to rename the file folder in the backup (ie zshrc or vim)
}

Backing up

After adding some jobs to your configuration file, run ditto -b to backup your dotfiles

Restoring

Restoring is just as easy, just run ditto -r
