Adds a dot setup subcommand family (idempotent, re-runnable machine-setup
tasks) with a folders task that brings the 8 standard XDG user
directories under a fixed short-name convention (Desktop -> .desktop,
Documents -> doc, Downloads -> dwn, Music -> mus, Pictures -> pic,
Videos -> vid, Templates/Public -> .ignoreme), hardcoded rather than read
from ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs -- that file is a separate, manually
tracked dotfile whose values can drift or go stale, and the migration
must not depend on it being correct. The nested Pictures/Screenshots
folder is renamed to pic/screenshots in the same pass.
Content left behind in a legacy full-named folder by a fresh XDG-defaults
install -- empty or not -- is merged into its short-named replacement.
A same-named collision between a legacy folder and its target is never
overwritten: it is skipped, reported, and the legacy folder is left in
place rather than deleted while something in it could not be merged.
--dry-run previews what would move/skip without touching the filesystem.
xdg-user-dirs-update runs once afterward to notify running apps/portals.
Dispatches kglobalshortcutsrc identifiers through the kglobalaccel D-Bus
service instead of the schema-backed or freeform rc-file paths. Verified
manually against the live session (per the spec's testing decision, this
mechanism is excluded from the automated suite); switched to the
shortcutKeys/defaultShortcutKeys/setShortcutKeys D-Bus methods after the
spec's originally-named shortcut/defaultShortcut/setShortcut proved to
return stale data on the live system. Moves Lock Session off Meta+L to
Meta+X as the real-world validation, tracked in the manifest and recorded
in keybindings.md.
Read/write schema-less KDE settings (e.g. kxkbrc's Options= line)
directly via kreadconfig6/kwriteconfig6, with default defined as the
key being absent. diff only checks freeform entries already declared
in the manifest, never via undeclared broad scan.
Brings the machine's caps-lock/Escape swap under tracking as the
real-world validation case.
Implements the broad, read-only schema-backed scan for dot kde diff:
walks every (rcfile, group, key) reachable through the kcfg mapping
table, compares live values against their schema-declared defaults,
and reports each mismatch tagged declared or undeclared. Never writes.
Also fixes dot kde completions, which only ever offered save/help —
apply (added in a prior task) and diff were both missing.
Pushes every manifest entry's declared value onto the live system via
kwriteconfig6, idempotently. Non-schema (shortcuts/freeform) entries are
rejected as not-yet-supported, deferred to later tasks.
Introduces the dot kde subcommand family (fish dispatcher plus a Python
helper under commands/kde/), a flat identifier=value manifest, and
dot kde save in both its explicit-identifier and no-argument refresh
modes. Settings resolve to KDE's KConfigXT schema-backed mechanism via a
(rcfile -> [kcfg files]) mapping table auto-derived by scanning the
system schema directory (overridable via DOT_KDE_KCFG_DIR), plus a
hand-maintained exceptions list for schemas that only declare their
target rc file at runtime. Also wires tab-completion for dot kde save
identifiers, sourced live from that same mapping table.
dotcli is my utility script for everything dotfiles.
A bootstrap command is included in the README.
A test suite and the necessary scaffolding for extending
dotcli is also included.
