The one-line bootstrap command downloads and executes a script from the internet:
bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kidchenko/dotfiles/main/tools/bootstrap.sh)"Before running this command:
-
Review the script first:
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kidchenko/dotfiles/main/tools/bootstrap.sh | less -
Use a specific release (recommended for stability):
bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kidchenko/dotfiles/v1.0.0/tools/bootstrap.sh)" -
Run in dry-run mode to preview changes:
bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kidchenko/dotfiles/main/tools/bootstrap.sh)" -- --dry-run
This project uses 1Password CLI for secrets management:
- SSH private keys are generated directly in 1Password (never touch disk during generation)
- Keys are retrieved via Chezmoi templates using
op://references - No secrets are stored in the repository
If you don't use 1Password:
- The bootstrap will skip 1Password integration
- You'll need to manage SSH keys manually
- Set
onepassword = falsein your Chezmoi config
Sensitive files are managed with appropriate permissions:
- SSH keys:
0600(owner read/write only) - SSH config:
0644 - Private directories use Chezmoi's
private_prefix
- Does not collect or transmit any data
- Does not phone home or check for updates automatically
- Does not install anything without your explicit action
- Does not modify system files outside your home directory (except Homebrew)
This project installs software from:
- Homebrew (macOS/Linux package manager)
- apt (Debian/Ubuntu packages)
- Chocolatey (Windows package manager)
- npm/pip/dotnet (language-specific tools)
Review the Brewfile and installer scripts to see exactly what gets installed.
