emacs and vim - Text Editors

Neovim

I use Neovim for all the small edits.

Installation:

sudo apt install neovim

The Neovim configuration can be found here.

Simlink the Vim config to Neovim:

mkdir ~/.config/nvim
ln -s ~/.vimrc ~/.config/nvim/init.vim

Then install the plugin manager plug:

sh -c 'curl -fLo "${XDG_DATA_HOME:-$HOME/.local/share}"/nvim/site/autoload/plug.vim --create-dirs https://raw.githubusercontent.com/junegunn/vim-plug/master/plug.vim'

And to install/setup all the plugins:

nvim +PlugInstall
nvim +UpdateRemotePlugins

Emacs

I use Emacs and the Doom framework.

Install Emacs:

sudo snap install emacs --edge --classic

And then the Doom framework:

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/hlissner/doom-emacs ~/.emacs.d
~/.emacs.d/bin/doom install

The Emacs configuration can be found here.

SpellCheck with Aspell:

sudo apt install aspell aspell-en aspell-fr

SSH setup

Generate a new SSH key:

ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -C "dehaeze.thomas@gmail.com"

Start the ssh-agent in the background:

eval "$(ssh-agent -s)"

Add the SSH key to the ssh-agent:

ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_rsa

GnuPG

https://gnupg.org/

Install the gnupg package:

sudo apt install gnupg

Create a key pair:

gpg --full-gen-key

To configure the gpg-agent to cache the passphrase, edit the following file ~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf:

default-cache-ttl 60480000
max-cache-ttl 60480000

Install Gnome-Keyring to automatically unlock the GnuPG keys:

sudo apt install gnome-keyring

rofi - Application Launcher

Rofi is a very nice alternative to dmenu.

Installation:

sudo apt install dmenu rofi

To be able to run sudo commands with rofi (github issue), the command sudo -A can be used: it opens a rofi prompt to ask for the password.

For that to work, we need to add the following code to ~/.profile:

export SUDO_ASKPASS=~/.local/bin/askpass-rofi

The askpass-rofi script is:

#!/bin/sh

rofi -dmenu \
     -password \
     -no-fixed-num-lines \
     -p "$(printf "$1" | sed s/://)"

pass - Password Manager

https://www.passwordstore.org/

Installation:

sudo apt install pass
git clone https://git.tdehaeze.xyz/tdehaeze/pass.git ~/.password-store

Gui Manager: qtpass

sudo apt install qtpass

Integration with Rofi: rofi-pass

cd ~/.local/soft/
git clone https://github.com/carnager/rofi-pass
cd rofi-pass
sudo make install

Then we can add a shortcut to rofi-pass on i3 config.

Integration with Git: pass-git-helper

sudo apt install pass-git-helper

First, add the relation between repository addresses and entries in pass. This is done in the following config file .config/pass-git-helper/git-pass-mapping.ini:

[github.com*]
target=github.com/tdehaeze

Then, add the credential helper on the git configuration file ~/.gitconfig and add the default username for the repositories adresses.

[credential]
    helper = !pass-git-helper $@

[credential "https://github.com"]
    username = tdehaeze

Integration with other programs

Integrate pass in other programs is usually very easy, here are few examples:

  • ~/.msmtprc:

    • passwordeval "pass email/dehaeze.thomas@gmail.com"

  • ~/.mbsyncrc

    • PassCmd "pass email/dehaeze.thomas@gmail.com"

Command Usage
<return> Download the file
Ctrl-x Download and open
Ctrl-p Open with pdf.js
Alt-y Yank the url

Integration with Pass: the password manager

Add the key-binding on ~/.config/qutebrowser/config.py

config.bind(',p', 'spawn --userscript password_fill')

However, to make tools like Anydesk or Teamviewer to work: Add "type=x11" in /etc/pam.d/system-login:

  • When executing loginctl session-status | grep Service X11 should appear as initialized.
  • echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE should show x11 instead of tty now
