git clone [your repository of dotfiles] $HOME/.dotfiles
- Go to your dotfiles folder
cd $HOME/.dotfiles
- Install git submodules
git submodule update --init --recursive modules/dotly

🔒 You need to know your GitHub username, repository and install ssh key if your repository is private.
It also supports other git repos, but you need to know your git repository url.
Once dotly is installed, the next step is to commit and push your dotfiles. Create a new repository in your GitHubnameddotfiles
and then copy the url. Then go to your dotfiles (cd "$DOTFILES_PATH"
) and execute:
git remote add origin YOUR_DOTFILES_REPO_URL&&git add -A&&git commit -m"Initial commit"&&git push origin main
dot
is the core command of dotly. If you execute it, you'll see all your scripts.

dotly allows you to version your apps' config files. Once you've found the config to version you should:
- Copy your config file inside your dotfiles so this will be the source of truth.E.g.
cp ~/Library/Application Support/Code/User/settings.json $DOTFILES_PATH/editors/code/settings.json
- Symlink this file. To do this you should edit your
$DOTFILES_PATH/symlinks/conf.YOUR-OS.yaml
and add it.E.g.~/Library/Application Support/Code/User/settings.json: editors/code/settings.json
dotly includes an opinionated, minimal, very fast and powerful theme by default. You can configure it using thefollowing parameters in yourshell/exports.sh
:
CODELY_THEME_MINIMAL=false|true# If true the theme will only show the prompt statusCODELY_THEME_MODE="dark"|"light"# Use dark if you use dark colors, light if lightCODELY_THEME_PROMPT_IN_NEW_LINE=false|true# If true the prompt will be in a newlineCODELY_THEME_PWD_MODE="short"|"full"|"home_relative"# short will show the first letter of each directory, full the full path and home_relative the full path relative to the $HOME dirCODELY_THEME_STATUS_ICON_KO="▪"# The icon to show if the previous command failed. Useful if you're color blind
