Eisegesis

Introduction

A collection of tasks that help you install, update and teardown package managers and other things useful for your dotfiles. It’s something like a meta package manager (package manager is the wrong word… still searching for a better one).

Requirements

• Elixir

Installation

Simple as running: mix archive.install eisegesis x.x.x replacing x.x.x by the wanted version.

Or you can use our docker image: docker run --rm -it boostingtech/eisegesis <command>

On the first run, docker will pull the image from docker hub!

You have a third option: download our binary, from releases pages! Noticce that the binary option is only available for unix systems.

How to use it

Create a setup.toml file as demonstrated in the example file

On this file you can speciffy which passenger you want to install and pass options to it!

The available passengers are:

@passengers ["dotfiles", "repos", "yarn", "homebrew", "asdf", "shell"]

Eisegesis have 2 tasks: up and down:

• up: Setup, install and update your software
• down: Remove everything installed by Exogenesis

After that, you can run eisegesis as:

• mix eise.up
• mix eise.down

if you installed locally via mix

• docker run --rm -it boostingtech/eisegesis <command>

if you pulled the docker image

Or if you downloaded the binary:

• eisegesis <command>
