|
|
|
## OSX
|
|
|
|
**yadm** can be installed using [Homebrew](https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew).
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
brew install yadm
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Fedora/Red Hat/CentOS (YUM/RPM)
|
|
|
|
Several yum repositories are on Copr. Follow this link for [repositories and installation instructions](https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/thelocehiliosan/yadm/).
|
|
|
|
## Ubuntu
|
|
|
|
Beginning with Ubuntu 16.10 _(yakkety)_, a version of **yadm** is available via
|
|
standard package repositories.
|
|
|

|
|
If using an older Ubuntu release, or to get a more up-to-date version of **yadm**, a PPA containing **yadm** exists
|
|
[here](https://launchpad.net/~flexiondotorg/+archive/ubuntu/yadm). These
|
|
commands should be sufficient to install:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
sudo apt-get install -y software-properties-common
|
|
sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:flexiondotorg/yadm
|
|
sudo apt-get update
|
|
sudo apt-get -y install yadm
|
|
```
|

|
|
|
|
Otherwise, the instructions for Debian below should also work for Ubuntu.
|
|
|
|
## Debian
|
|
|
|
**yadm** is available in the stable release of Debian. It may be installed with `apt-get`.
|
|
|
|
## Arch Linux
|
|
|
|
**yadm** is available in the Arch User Repos and can be installed with AUR helper or Makepkg
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
yaourt -S yadm-git
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Gentoo Linux
|
|
|
|
**yadm** is available in the main gentoo portage tree, simply use `emerge` to install it
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
emerge -atv app-admin/yadm
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Download
|
|
|
|
You *can* simply download the **yadm** script and put it into your `$PATH`. Something like this:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
curl -fLo /usr/local/bin/yadm https://github.com/TheLocehiliosan/yadm/raw/master/yadm && chmod a+x /usr/local/bin/yadm
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Of course, you can change the file paths above to be appropriate for your `$PATH` and situation.
|
|
|
|
## Clone
|
|
|
|
You might wish to clone the **yadm** project and symlink `yadm` into your
|
|
`$PATH`.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
git clone https://github.com/TheLocehiliosan/yadm.git ~/.yadm-project
|
|
ln -s ~/.yadm-project/yadm ~/bin/yadm
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Now you can pull the latest updates to **yadm** using Git. Again, adjust the
|
|
file paths above to be appropriate for your `$PATH` and situation.
|
|
|
|
## Submodule
|
|
|
|
If you are comfortable with how Git submodules work, another option is to add
|
|
the **yadm** project as a submodule and symlink `yadm` into your `$PATH`.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
cd ~
|
|
yadm submodule add https://github.com/TheLocehiliosan/yadm.git .yadm-project
|
|
yadm submodule update --init --recursive
|
|
ln -s ~/.yadm-project/yadm ~/bin/yadm
|
|
yadm add .yadm-project .gitmodules bin/yadm
|
|
yadm commit
|
|
```
|
|
When using submodules, you need to initialize them each time you do a fresh
|
|
`clone` of your dotfiles.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
yadm submodule update --init --recursive
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Updating to a newer version of **yadm** would use commands similar to this.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
cd ~/.yadm-project
|
|
git pull
|
|
yadm add ~/.yadm-project
|
|
yadm commit
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Again, adjust the file paths above to be appropriate for your `$PATH` and
|
|
situation.
|
|
|
|
You can find more information about Git submodules by reading the [git-submodule](https://git-scm.com/docs/git-submodule)
|
|
man page.
