niminit
Simple program that copies files from ~/.config/niminit
to .vscode
in your current working directory and optionally initialises a Git repo.
Written in nim!
Currently written to work for Linux, not tested on MacOS, Windows is unsupported for now (feel free to make a pull-request :D).
Table of contents
Install using script
Install using one-liner:
# Clone GitHub repo, compile and install niminit
git clone https://github.com/SangeloDev/niminit && cd niminit && chmod +x install.sh && ./install.sh
If you've cloned the repo already, you can also directly run install.sh:
$ ./install.sh
Compile & install manually
To compile niminit
, run the following command after cloning:
nim c -o:bin/niminit niminit
This will create a directory called bin/
inside the repo. You can copy the binary into your path from there.
You'll also find two template files that can be used to initialise a nim project for VSCode inside config
in this repo. You can copy these to ~/.config/niminit
or create your own.
Update
- Open your terminal and
cd
into the repository. - Run
git pull
to update the local repo. - Run
./install.sh
again and enjoy!
Usage
To use niminit, run it inside the folder you'd like to initialise, after creating ~/.config/niminit/
and adding the files you'd like to copy there.
Optionally, you can pass the -g
flag to also create a git repository.
Uninstall
niminit
is self-contained, you can just remove the binary from ~/.local/bin
.
niminit
also uses ~/.config/niminit
, so remove that directory and you're done!
