AutoDeploy

AutoDeploy is a tool written in 100% bash that allows for extensible synchronization of configuration files, auto installation of programs your commonly use, and allows for git-like pull/commit. This is intended to be extensible to allow for you to quickly push out a set of configuration files, and have them be pulled into any other machine.

Goals

I work on so many different machines that keeping my configuration files and the versions of the software I use in sync between many machines is a painstaking task. Autodeploy should help with the following:

• Easily moving all configuraiton files (~/.vimrc,~/.config/i3/config,~/.xprofile,etc) between multiple machines
• 100% bash
• Trufflehog-like functionality for configuration files being stored in public places (IE: Github)

Features

• Pulling down of files from remote repository
• Pushing of files to a remote repository
• Staging of files defined in global_dotFiles.conf into ~/.config/autodeploy/$(hostname)_config/
• Distributing config files in $(hostname)_config/ to their correct locations
• Backing up of local configuration files to ~/.config/autodeploy/$(hostname)_config/backup/ before overwriting them
• Installing of any application defined in global_applications
• Editing configuration files in .config/autodeploy through the autodeploy tool
