Bootstrapping

Here is the script you need to run to get this working:

Important

You will need to have an SSH key to authorize GitHub with, and have access to the Ghostty GitHub repository as I use Ghostty and Ghostty is in private beta at the moment.

sudo nix-shell --packages git nu nix-output-monitor --command "
  git clone https://github.com/RGBCube/NixOSConfiguration ~/Configuration
  cd ~/Configuration
  nu rebuild.nu <host>
"

host is a host selected from the hosts in the hosts directory.

Applying Changes

Lets say you have changed the configuration and want to apply the changes to your system. You would have to run the rebuild script:

./rebuild.nu

This runs the script interactively.

You can also check how the script is used:

./rebuild.nu --help

This outputs:

Usage:
  > rebuild.nu (host) ...(arguments)

Flags:
  -h, --help - Display the help message for this command

Parameters:
  host <string>: The host to build. (optional, default: '')
  ...arguments <any>: The arguments to pass to `nix system apply`.

BUGS

• dwm hangs after a boot because of some bug. There are two ways that I've came up with to solve this problem:
  1. Enable kmscon
  2. Disable Auto-booting (into the "nixos" user)
