Getting Started
Bootstrap
clenver is able to bootstrap your brand new Linux account according to rules provided through YAML file. For
xample create dummy.yml with below content:
https://github.com/pietrushnic/dummy.git:
links:
foobar.txt:
- foobar_link
foobar:
- foobar_dir_link
run:
- echo "success!!!"
remotes:
upstream:
- https://github.com/pietrushnic/dummy.git
After that running
clenver init dummy.yaml
gives you below tree:
dummy
├── dummy
│ ├── foobar
│ ├── foobar.txt
│ └── README.md
├── foobar_dir_link -> $PWD/dummy/dummy/foobar
└── foobar_link -> $PWD/dummy/dummy/foobar.txt
And of course will display success!!! message. Carefully crafted YAML file can bootstrap you clean user account into fully configured user account.
