m8a Default Dotfiles

This repository contains the default dotfile configuration for m8a workspaces.

Default Configuration

The default setup includes:

• Shell: Zsh
• Framework: Oh My Zsh
• Prompt: Starship

Configuration (m8a.yaml)

This repository contains an m8a.yaml file which tells the m8a CLI how to install the dotfiles.

version: "v1"
type: "dotfiles"
# Points to the script that 'm8a source' will execute
install: "./install.sh"

Usage

To install or update your dotfiles, simply run:

m8a source

This command looks at the install property in m8a.yaml and executes the specified script.

Examples

The /examples directory contains alternative configurations for different workflows:

• Minimal Bash: Lightweight, standard Bash setup.
• Fish Shell: Modern shell with autosuggestions.
• Powerlevel10k: Advanced Zsh setup.
• DevOps Toolbox: Pre-configured aliases for K8s, Docker, etc.
• Nix Home Manager: Declarative configuration.

NOTE: The versions in the examples are not guaranteed to be up-to-date. Please check the repository for the latest versions. We also don't guarantee that the examples will work in all cases. Some examples may require additional dependencies or configuration. We roughly tested the examples, but they are just examples in the end. YMMV.

Switching Examples

To use one of the examples, edit m8a.yaml and change the install path to point to the desired example's install script.

Example: Switch to Fish Open m8a.yaml:

install: "./examples/fish-shell/install.sh"

Then run:

m8a source
