TODO

A list of in-progress and completed todo's.

Arch Todos

• Update README, it's way out of date.
• Separate scripts that are used for configurations / store them somewhere aside from ~/.local/bin
• Add neomutt configuration files into the repo (or probably a private repo)
• Clipse didn't work when installed on a new machine when I try to use the config in the dotfiles, but works if I use the default config. Need to explore why (current thoughts are it has to do with creating the clipboard_history.json file and not letting clipse do it automatically).
• Need to add the following system packages for neovim/render-markdown.nvim
  • libtexprintf
• Add pipewire-zeroconf to runs.
  • Setup pipewire config to allow streaming output to homepod's.
  • See arch.wiki

Bootstrapping a new machine

• Need to confirm bootstrap does things properly with git submodules. Currently the system run handles installing packages needed for my yubikey, probably need to automate installing the public key into the keyring.
  • Add gpg public key import into runs/after/system
  • Need to ensure ssh keys are setup before private submodules are loaded / installed, so I need to make sure that Yubikey setup runs early and works for ssh authentication.
  • Setup a new machine / virtual machine to test, as it's hard to test the scripts once a machine is setup.
  • Need to add repos script when bootstrapping.

Keyboard / kanata

• Move keyboard (kanata) systemd service to be started as a '--user' service, as it seems to not work when used on a desktop (mac mini) vs. laptop.
  • Need to update kanatactl to generate udev rules, etc. (see here)[https://github.com/jtroo/kanata/blob/main/docs/setup-linux.md]
• Need to rethink symbol / number keyboard layers.
  • Move symbols to their own layer.
  • I would like to have a symbols layer that I can hold modifier keys with a symbol and would also like to possibly pass through underlying key / experiment so that I can use default keybinds in certain applications (i.e. neovim [b, etc.).
• Remove pkg sub-commands from kanatactl, it is available via package manager now.

Runs (package installs)

• Should runs just export / echo a list of packages, then the run script can handle the package manager options / command.
• Think about adding a before and an after directory for runs, so that they can perform setup tasks after the packages are installed.
  • The before and after file should have the same name as the run file.
  • This could allow to remove / move the system script into the after directory.
• Look into install packages with nvim --headless, not sure if this possible when using the new package manager builtin to neovim as it prompts for user input to install packages.
  • With lazy this was done with nvim --headless "+Lazy! sync" +qa

Mail

• Remove outlook / office email setup, this has been moved to proton.
