Technically not a config but a compose file, so I think it's better to have outside of `.config` dir

# `null2264`'s Nix Setup
|
|
|
|
You need to install Nix before following this guide: `sh <(curl -L https://nixos.org/nix/install)` and symlink this dir to `~/.config/nix`

## Setup
|
|
|
|
### macOS
|
|
|
|
> [!NOTE]
|
|
> If you're using Alfred, to make Applications installed via Nix to appear on Alfred:
|
|
> - Open Alfred Preferences
|
|
> - General > Default Results > Extras > Click `Advanced`
|
|
> - Add `com.apple.alias-file`
|
|
|
|
Nix in macOS is handled by [nix-darwin](https://github.com/LnL7/nix-darwin).
|
|
|
|
#### Initial
|
|
|
|
This is done because nix-darwin commands is not yet added to PATH, should be a one-time thing
|
|
|
|
```zsh
|
|
nix-env -iA nixpkgs.git
|
|
# Run `sudo chown $USER /nix/var/nix/profiles/per-user/$USER` if that returns error
|
|
|
|
nix build .#darwinConfigurations.<host>.system
|
|
|
|
./result/sw/bin/darwin-rebuild switch --flake .#<host>
|
|
# or
|
|
nix run nix-darwin -- switch --flake .#<host>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Rebuild
|
|
|
|
After initial setup, you should now be able to use the command directly:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
darwin-rebuild build --flake . # or you can specify the hostname with `--flake . #<hostname>`
|
|
|
|
# or if you're feeling lucky
|
|
|
|
darwin-rebuild switch --flake .
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Other
|
|
|
|
Nix in non-NixOS Linux is handled by [system-manager](https://github.com/numtide/system-manager).
|
|
|
|
#### Rebuild
|
|
|
|
Unfortunately, root access is required in order to use system-manager.
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
sudo -i nix run 'github:numtide/system-manager' --extra-experimental-features "nix-command flakes" -- switch --flake $PWD
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Home
|
|
|
|
This is for per-user setup. Instead of managing the entire system, you're
|
|
managing one user at a time. This is handled by
|
|
[home-manager](https://github.com/nix-community/home-manager)
|
|
|
|
#### Rebuild
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
home-manager build --flake . # or you can specify the user with `--flake . #<username>@<hostname>`
|
|
|
|
# or if you're feeling lucky
|
|
|
|
home-manager switch --flake .
|
|
```
