Config

An attempt to use Nix for my dotfiles

I have no idea what I'm doing - don't use this as an example

Modules

• Darwin
• Home manager

Setup

1. Clone the repo

git clone https://github.com/mattietea/config ~/.config/nix

2. In flake.nix update

   1. username
   2. email
   3. hostnames (scutil --get LocalHostName)

3. Run the darwin build

nix --extra-experimental-features "nix-command flakes" run nix-darwin -- switch --flake .

Installs nix-darwin and exposes the darwin-rebuild command

Rebuild

darwin-rebuild switch --flake .

Formatting

nix fmt -- .

Clear Cache

nix-collect-garbage
