Notes to self on how to set up a developer space for myself in MacOS.

This is for setting up a fullstack dev environment for NodeJS, Mongo, and MySQL. Python coming soon!

Applications are deployed to Heroku.

0. Open Terminal
1. Enter the git command
2. Prompt will appear to install git
3. If not, refer to https://git-scm.com/.
4. Set up your github credentials using: git config --global user.name "Your Name && git config --global user.email "you@example.com"

0. Run chflags nohidden ~/Library/ in Terminal

0. Open Terminal
1. Check for any existing SSH keys with ls -la ~/.ssh
2. If you get a No such file or directory then proceed to step 3, otherwise skip ahead to step 4.
3. Create a new SSH key using ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -C "<YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS TIED TO GITHUB>"
4. Ensure the SSH agent is enabled using eval "$(ssh-agent -s)"
5. Add your SSH key using ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_rsa
6. Now link the SSH key to github at https://github.com/settings/keys.
7. In terminal use pbcopy < ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub to get your public key
8. Paste that into Github using the link from step 6.

0. Open Terminal
1. Navigate to https://nodejs.org/en
2. Click to download the latest stable (LTS version) of NodeJS
3. After installation, run node in Terminal to test if it worked
4. Press Ctrl C to exit

These are some npm packages I use globally via sudo npm install -g

• chai
• firebase-tools
• karma-cli
• mocha
• mysql
• node-debug
• nodemon
• sequelize-cli
• webpack

As an aside, you can view your global packages using npm list -g --depth 0

0. Open Terminal
1. Navigate to http://brew.sh.
2. Copy the command on their website into Terminal and run it
3. Press the Enter key to confirm the download to the default folder
4. Enter the brew command after the download to confirm it worked

Note that Python 2 is usually installed in Mac OS out of the box

0. Open Terminal
1. Check for Python version by typing python

If you have Python 2, and want to keep it that way that's cool

0. Note that you may also want to intall the pip package manager for Python 2 using sudo easy_install pip
1. You can test if it installed and get the version with pip -V

If you want Python 3, then you can install that and pip3 in one shot

0. Assuming Homebrew is installed, enter brew install python3 to get Python 3
1. You can test if Python 3 installed and get the version with python3 -V
2. You can test if pip installed and get the version with pip3 -V

You can also use Canopy instead of Anaconda. But I picked Anaconda so I can pick either Python 2 or 3.

Note! If you did all the installations I mentioned in this repo, then you will have 3 Python versions on your Mac. One shy of this guy. This shouldn't be an issue but it's good to be aware of it. I plan on using the Mac and Homebrew verisons for web development and the Anaconda version for Data Science.

Anyway, install Anaconda by doing the following:

0. On the Anaconda website choose either the Python 2 or Python 3 version.
1. I picked the Graphical Installer (green button) for Python 3.6.
2. Follow along with the installer's instructions.
3. Type conda in your command line to ensure the download was successful.
4. You can look into this GitHub Repo to mess with the Pandas library in Python.

Note that Jupyter should come with Anaconda. If not, use their instructions to download it. Using pip or pip3 is the easiest download. Type jupyter in the command line to see if it was installed.

0. Open Terminal
1. Use Homebrew to install MySQL using sudo brew install mysql command in Terminal
2. Run the MySQL server after the installation is complete by entering mysql.server start in Terminal
3. Test if the server is working by entering mysql -u root
4. Type \q in Terminal to exit the MySQL CLI

1. Navigate to http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/workbench
2. Click to download MySQL Workbench
3. After installation, open the Workbench and click "New Connection" to make a Localhost connection

0. Open Terminal
1. Use Homebrew to install MongoDB using sudo brew install mongodb command in Terminal
2. Configure the MongoDB environment using sudo mkdir -p /data/db/
3. Get read/write permission using sudo chown -R $USER /data/db
4. Test to see if Mongo is working using mongod in Terminal

1. Navigate to https://robomongo.org/download
2. Click to download RoboMongo
3. After installation, open RoboMongo and click "New Connection" to make a Localhost connection

1. Navigate to https://www.sublimetext.com/3
2. Click to download (no purchase needed)

4. Also install HandlebarsJS and Babel syntax highlighting using the package installer from Step 4
5. Add the subl command to your path using the directions in this repo.
6. Set up other preferences. In the Menu Bar, click Sublime Text > Preferences > Settings. Then, adjust the following properties:

{
  "color_scheme": "Packages/Theme - Brogrammer/brogrammer.tmTheme",
  "font_size": 10,
  "ignored_packages":
  [
    "Vintage"
  ],
  "scroll_past_end": true,
