mac-setup

Setup script for Mac OS X, which does the following:

• Install CommandLineTools
• Install Homebrew
• Install Brewfile
  • package-lists/Brewfile shows all applications to be installed. RVM and NVM are optional during installation.

The script will also prompt to do the following:

• Install custom MacOSDefaults
• Install custom dotfiles
• Install rvm and Ruby
• Install nvm and Node LTS
  • Also installs global npm packages listed in package-lists/npm-global
• Configure Github SSH
• Install VS Code Extension "Setting Sync" which syncs preferences and extensions via a gist.

I highly recommended reading through the shell scripts and dotfiles before installing this. Many of these settings are preferences, and yours may differ.

Running

The following command will run setup.sh, download this repository, and execute install.sh.

bash <(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/drewterry/mac-setup/master/setup.sh)

Note: if you fork this repository, the link above should point to the new repo.

Customization

If you would like to tweak these files, please feel free to fork the repo. A few helpful hints:

• Anything in dotfiles\custom is sourced in .bash_profile, so adding dotfiles here will cause them to be run on load.
• package-lists/Brewfile can be used to install most applications. Try brew search to find the proper names.
  • Note: Mac App Store apps are not currently supported, due to bug #164.
• package-lists/npm-global will install any listed packages during the installation of nvm.
• VS Code Setting Sync Extension syncs all of your extensions and settings to a gist, which is very helpful. install.sh installs this extension, then prompts you to open VS Code and type Shift-Alt-D to setup your environment.
