This project aims to provide a bash installer script to help in the installation of configuration files.

Copy/paste the ./install.sh script into your project and starting from the directory level where you copied the script, use the whole or just a part of the following subtree:

So the config directory is at the same level as the install.sh script.

Every files in:

• config/copy/common/[TARGET_PATH]: are copied to [TARGET_PATH]
• config/copy/[HOSTNAME]/[TARGET_PATH]: are copied to [TARGET_PATH] only if [HOSTNAME] corresponds to the current ${HOSTNAME}
• config/link/common/[TARGET_PATH]: are symlinked to [TARGET_PATH]
• config/link/[HOSTNAME]/[TARGET_PATH]: are symlinked to [TARGET_PATH] only if [HOSTNAME] corresponds to the current ${HOSTNAME}
• config/run/common/after: are executed after all other actions on all hosts
• config/run/[HOSTNAME]/after: are executed after all other actions only if [HOSTNAME] corresponds to the current ${HOSTNAME}
• config/run/common/before: are executed before all other actions on all hosts
• config/run/[HOSTNAME]/before: are executed before all other actions only if [HOSTNAME] corresponds to the current ${HOSTNAME}

Pkease note that the common namespace is used to share configurations across many hosts, while using a HOSTNAME namespace permits to dedicate configurations to a specific host.

The common namespace takes precedence over HOSTNAME namespace, so every actions under the common namespaces are executed first.

Actions are executed as follows:

1. config/run/common/before
2. config/run/[HOSTNAME]/before
3. config/copy/common/[TARGET_PATH]
4. config/copy/[HOSTNAME]/[TARGET_PATH]
5. config/link/common/[TARGET_PATH]
6. config/link/[HOSTNAME]/[TARGET_PATH]
7. config/run/common/after
8. config/run/[HOSTNAME]/after

Pkease note that inside a same namespace, actions are executed in alphabetical order based on their respective paths.
