Welcome to my personal NixOS configuration. This repository has been made mostly for testing out what NixOS can do and see how I can leverage on the paradigm of immutable systems in order to build the perfect configuration (at least for my own needs).
At the moment of writing this file, it does contain the configuration for two different systems:
- elendil: my personal laptop (Microsoft Surface Laptop 3 running NixOS)
- coravandil: the WSL on Windows 11 that I use at work, which uses Ubuntu 23.04 as the base system.
I plan to add a third one (a Lenovo Yoga currently running Fedora) in the near future.
The whole configuration uses the not-so-experimental feature of Nix Flakes along with a bunch of dependencies and tries to be as generic as possible in regarding of the system itself.
You will find the configuration for elendil in the system/elendil
folder, it is composed of the classic configuration.nix file, containing the
system itself and hardware-configuration.nix, which contains the custom
linux kernel configuration.
Since this is not a physical machine, there's nothing under the system folder for Coravandil, everything is in the configuration of the user, made using the excellent home-manager module.
Two users are currently configured: massi@elendil and massi@coravandil. Since
the two users share most of the things, I created reusable home-manager modules
to easily configure them.
I have created multiple modules for the users.
As the name suggets, this is the base module, containing the initial things
that have to be configured. Here I am using homeage in order to safely encrypt
and decrypt the secrets for my users (for example the SSH key).
This is the module for the fish shell, which also installs a bunch of tools,
configures some of the aliases and abbrs that I use on all the systems.
This is the first module I wrote: it just installs a bunch of fonts and configures the fontconfig.
This is the module for the helix editor.
A module that simply installs whatsapp, telegram and discord. In the future I
will most probably add some serious email client, since the GNOME's integrated
one isn't that useful.
Adds a lot of useful stuff for developers, like language servers, linters, formatters and such. This stuff is mostly then re-used by the NeoVim module to provide Intellisense, automatic formatting, integration with LSPs, etc. For now, the following languages are supported:
- C#
- Haskell
- Java
- Javascript (and Typescript)
- Json/Yaml via VSCode's LSP
- Lua
- Nix
- Purescript
- Racket
- Rust
- Terraform
On top of that, some other useful LSPs are installed:
- Dockerfile Language Server
- Helm Language Server
- Codeium AI Language Server
- Marksman for Markdown editing
This is the most complex and unstable module I wrote, the idea was to port my whole nvim configuration (which was quite old since I switched to VSCode) to the Nix ecosystem, make it immutable and such. It is kinda working right now, there are still a couple of bugs that I have to fix but it can be used for Java development without any issues.
