dot-nix

Dotfiles as Nix configuration. This is likely to be perpetually unstable and work-in-progress.

Machines

  • Sirin, a gen 13 Framework laptop.
  • Dolya, an M1 Macbook Pro.
  • Veles, Thinkpad T480 running Ubuntu, mainly for testing config.

Usage

For the most part, this shouldn't require any special environment other than nix with flakes enabled for me to use. A dev shell is provided with just and alejandra for quick changes when I want to make sure formatting is right and to run builds easily.

Just Recipes

The following recipes in the justfile can be used for convenience. They will always try to build for the current username and hostname. The default recipe is to build the current user's home-manager config. These can also be listed using just --list.

  • build {home|host|pkg} [args...] - Build either the current home or host config or a package output. Extra arguments are passed to the build-home or build-host recipes.

  • build-home [user@host] - Build the given username and host home-manager configuration. This attempts to run home-manager from the pinned input, so changes over time should not affect this. That's what I'm hoping, at least.

  • build-host [host] - Build the given host NixOS configuration. Like normal nixos-rebuild, this tries to build the current hostname's output unless another is given.

  • build-pkg {pkg} - Build a package output.

  • activate {home|host} [args...] - Activate either the current home or host config. Extra arguments are passed to activate-home or activate-host.

  • activate-home [user@host] - Activates the given username and host home-manager configuration. This runs home-manager switch, so to avoid any mishaps, this will always run home-manager build first.

  • activate-host [host] - Activates the given host NixOS configuration. By default, like normal nixos-rebuild, this will default to the current hostname when activating. This runs nixos-rebuild boot, not ... switch, because more often than not nixos-rebuild switch will kill any current session (since I'm likely updating the host).

  • update {input} - Update the given flake input.

  • update-local - Updates local flake locks (e.g., afmt, ncrandr, pact).

  • update-packages - Update both nixpkgs.

  • home-manager [args] - Run home-manager with the given arguments. Useful on machines where I don't want the home-manager program itself installed.
