NixDots

Dotfiles for NixOS using Flakes. Contains modules and configurations for NixOS, nix-on-droid and Home Manager.

Using existing configurations

1. Make sure to have NixOS, nix-on-droid or just Nix properly installed.

2. Enable Flakes if you haven't already.

3. Enter the repository.

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/brckd/nixdots
cd nixdots

4. Build and activate the home configuration.

nix run home-manager/master -- switch --flake .

5. Build and activate the system configuration, if one exists.

On NixOS (device specific)

sudo nixos-rebuild switch --flake .

On nix-on-droid

nix-on-droid switch --flake .

Creating new Configurations

On NixOS

1. Create a new directory at ./configurations/nixos/$HOSTNAME.

2. Use nixos-generate-config to create a hardware configuration.

nixos-generate-config --dir ./configurations/nixos/$HOSTNAME

3. Create a default.nix module that imports configuration.nix to configure your system.

On nix-on-droid

Just override the existing configuration in ./configurations/droid/default.nix.

On Home Manager

1. Create a new directory at ./configurations/home/$USERNAME

2. Create a default.nix module to configure your user.
