42 Header

42Lausanne (Switzerland)

Description

42 standard header for vim editor.

Usage

In NORMAL mode (ESC) you can simply press the shortcut F2 (or FN F2) or use :FT as command.

vim 42.c
<ESC> <F2>
<ESC> :wq

vim Makefile
<ESC> :FT
<ESC> :wq

Quick Setup

Below replace "marvin" with your 42 Network login.

USER="marvin" ./set_header.sh

If you want to setup the same email and username for all your git:

git config --global user.name marvin
git config --global user.email marvin@student.42lausanne.ch

Otherwise setup it on a case-by-case basic:

git clone git@... project
cd project
git config user.name "marvin"
git config user.email "marvin@student.42lausanne.ch"

For non git-based folder, set user and mail values directly in your vimrc

vim ~/.vimrc
let g:user42 = 'marvin'
let g:mail42 = 'marvin@student.42lausanne.ch'

ESC :wq

Manual Setup

Below replace "marvin" with your 42 Network login.

Copy stdheader.vim in your ~/.vim/plugin.

test -d ~/.vim/plugin || mkdir -p ~/.vim/plugin
cp -va vim/stdheader.vim ~/.vim/plugin

If you want to setup the same email and username for all your git:

git config --global user.name marvin
git config --global user.email marvin@student.42lausanne.ch

Otherwise setup it on a case-by-case basic:

git clone git@... project
cd project
git config user.name "marvin"
git config user.email "marvin@student.42lausanne.ch"

UNIX/BSD Distro (MacOS X, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, etc.) edit ~/.zshrc:

vim ~/.zshrc
export MAIL="marvin@student.42lausanne.ch"
<ESC> :wq
source ~/.zshrc

Linux/GNU Distro (Debian/Ubuntu, RedHat/SuSE, Arch, Gentoo, etc.) edit ~/.bashrc:

vim ~/.bashrc
export MAIL="marvin@student.42lausanne.ch"
<ESC> :wq
source ~/.bashrc

Note

• Your git username and email will always have the priority over $USER and $MAIL variables.
• If you are outside a git repo tree, it will use the $USER and $MAIL environement variables.
• If none of the above, it will default to marvin@student.42lausanne.ch and marvin as username.
• Usually you don't want to overwrite $USER as is the logged user and is already defined.

Troubleshooting:

git config user.name
echo $USER
git config user.email
echo $MAIL
grep -e ' USER=' -e ' MAIL=' ~/.zshrc
