setting up a new Macbook

new-mac.md

• xcode-select --install to make git work
• download Google Drive or "Backup & Sync" or whatever they are calling it these days
• download 1Password https://1password.com/
• open 1P and sync the password VAULT
• once XCode has finished, start doing command line things
  • git clone https://github.com/phette23/dotconfig.git
  • git clone https://github.com/phette23/bashrc.git
  • git clone https://github.com/phette23/fishrc.git
  • these all have bash ./copy.sh scripts to install them
• run the set up scripts from dotconfig:
  • homebrew first (pretty much everything relies on it)
  • brew cask installs all the applications I use
  • programming languages (node, python, ruby)
  • finally the "osx.sh" settings script, which will alter settings for some of the apps installed above
• now that we have iTerm2 we can sync its settings from Drive & have our usual shell setup
  • go to Preferences > General > Preferences > Load prefs from a custom folder or URL
• we'll want to copy any SSH settings we have in Drive too mkdir ~/.ssh; cp ssh-config.txt ~/.ssh/config
• create a new SSH key for the laptop, then add that to all the needed servers with ssh-copy-id and add to GitHub
• copy needed scripts/binaries into ~/bin e.g. uptaxo, equellasoap.py & utils.py from openEQUELLA's SOAP python utilities
• copy tampermonkey scripts into the Chrome extension's dashboard
