Dotfiles

Personal "dotfile" configurations, managed with Nix. Supports NixOS and Darwin (macOS).

Installation

Note: The commands below assume that the repository is cloned to ~/.dotfiles:

git clone git@github.com:tymbalodeon/.dotfiles.git ~/.dotfiles

Initial build

NixOS:

(Available hosts can be found in hardware configurations.)

sudo nixos-rebuild switch --flake ~/.dotfiles#<HOST>

# For example:
# sudo nixos-rebuild switch --flake ~/.dotfiles#ruzia

Darwin:

Install Nix using the Determinate Systems Nix Installer.

nix run home-manager -- switch --flake ~/.dotfiles

# Or, for a "work" configuration
# nix run home-manager -- switch --flake ~/.dotfiles#work

Subsequent builds

Subsequent builds can be handled with a just recipe from the included Justfile:

just rebuild # <HOST>

# For example:
# just rebuild
# just rebuild ruzia

# To see available hosts on the current system:
just rebuild --hosts

Development environment

Assuming you already have direnv, just, and nushell installed (which you will after installing the configuration), a development environment can be created by running:

just init

Run just to see available "recipes," and just <recipe> --help/-h to get more information about a particular recipe.

Available recipes:
(run `just <recipe> --help/-h` for more info)
    check *args              # Check flake and run pre-commit hooks
    deps *args               # List dependencies
    diff *args               # View the diff between hosts
    diff-env *args           # View the diff between environments
    find-recipe *search_term # Search available `just` recipes
    generations *help        # View generations
    history *search_term     # Search project history
    hosts *help              # List available hosts
