A lot of configuration goes into setting up our dev environments. Having to redo it every time can be a chore so let us automate that process.

Docker

I like to have Docker installed since it makes everything else a lot simpler. A lot of things you’d otherwise spend time configuring come as docker images

docker-install.sh

# Add Docker's official GPG key:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install ca-certificates curl
sudo install -m 0755 -d /etc/apt/keyrings
sudo curl -fsSL <https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg> -o /etc/apt/keyrings/docker.asc
sudo chmod a+r /etc/apt/keyrings/docker.asc

# Add the repository to Apt sources:
echo \\
  "deb [arch=$(dpkg --print-architecture) signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/docker.asc] <https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu> \\
  $(. /etc/os-release && echo "$VERSION_CODENAME") stable" | \\
  sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docker.list > /dev/null
sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install docker-ce docker-ce-cli containerd.io docker-buildx-plugin docker-compose-plugin -y

Git Aliases

dir=${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-$HOME/.config}/gitalias
mkdir -p "$dir"
curl <https://raw.githubusercontent.com/GitAlias/gitalias/main/gitalias.txt> -o "$dir/gitalias.txt"
git config --global include.path "$dir/gitalias.txt"

Ollama

docker-compose.yml

version: '3.8'
services:
  app:
    build: .
    ports:
      - 8000:8000
      - 5678:5678
    volumes:
      - .:/code
    command: uvicorn src.main:app --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000 --reload
    restart: always
    depends_on:
      - ollama
      - ollama-webui
    networks:
      - ollama-docker

  ollama:
    image: ollama/ollama:latest
    ports:
      - 11434:11434
    volumes:
      - .:/code
      - ./ollama/ollama:/root/.ollama
    container_name: ollama
    pull_policy: always
    tty: true
    restart: always
    environment:
      - OLLAMA_KEEP_ALIVE=24h
      - OLLAMA_HOST=0.0.0.0
    networks:
      - ollama-docker

  ollama-webui:
    image: ghcr.io/open-webui/open-webui:main
    container_name: ollama-webui
    volumes:
      - ./ollama/ollama-webui:/app/backend/data
    depends_on:
      - ollama
    ports:
      - 8080:8080
    environment: # <https://docs.openwebui.com/getting-started/env-configuration#default_models>
      - OLLAMA_BASE_URLS=http://host.docker.internal:11434 #comma separated ollama hosts
      - ENV=dev
      - WEBUI_AUTH=True
      - WEBUI_NAME=valiantlynx AI
      - WEBUI_URL=http://localhost:8080
      - WEBUI_SECRET_KEY=t0p-s3cr3t
    extra_hosts:
      - host.docker.internal:host-gateway
    restart: unless-stopped
    networks:
      - ollama-docker

networks:
  ollama-docker:
    external: false
  

This will spin up an Ollama server, with an open-webui frontend

Python

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:deadsnakes/ppa -y
sudo apt update
sudo apt install python3.11 -y
sudo apt-get install python3.11-venv -y

CUDA

1. Check if CUDA capable

lspci | grep -i nvidia

2. Check if it has supported version of Linux

uname -m && cat /etc/*release

3. Check if gcc installed
