Nix Configuration

This repository contains my personal NixOS and Home Manager configurations, managed using Nix Flakes.

Structure

The repository is organized as follows:

• flake.nix: The main entry point for the Nix Flake configuration.
• hosts/: Contains configuration for specific machines (e.g., alfred).
• system_modules/: Reusable Nix modules for various system components (e.g., desktop manager, shell, window manager).
• user_modules/: Reusable Nix user modules (e.g., browsers, communication tools, development tools).
• users/: User-specific configurations
• create_module.sh: Script to create new modules.
• sync-system.sh, sync-user.sh, sync.sh: Scripts for synchronizing and deploying configurations.
• secrets.yaml: File for storing sensitive information managed by nix-sops.

Features

• Modular configuration structure for easy management and reuse.
• Separate host configurations for different machines.
• User-specific Home Manager configurations.
• Configurations for frequently used software and system components.
• Utilizes Nix Flakes for improved reproducibility and dependency management.

Usage

To use this configuration:

1. Ensure you have Nix with Flakes enabled installed on your system.

2. Clone this repository:

   git clone https://github.com/Manas73/nix-config.git

3. Navigate to the repository directory:

   cd nix-config

4. Apply the configurations using one of the following sync scripts:

   
   

   • To apply both system and home-manager configurations:

     ./sync.sh

   • To apply only the system configuration:

     ./sync-system.sh

   • To apply only the home-manager configuration:

     ./sync-user.sh

   
   

   Notes:

   • The sync scripts use sudo where necessary, so you may be prompted for your password during execution.
   • The sync.sh script combines the functionality of both sync-system.sh and sync-user.sh, allowing you to update your entire configuration in one go.
   
   

5. After running any of these scripts, your system will rebuild and apply the new configurations.

Customization

To customize this configuration for your own use:

1. Modify the hosts/ directory to match your machine(s).
2. Update user configurations in the users/ directory.
3. Adjust modules in the system_modules/ or user_modules/ directory as needed.
4. Use the create_module.sh script to create new modules as required.
5. Utilize the sync scripts (sync-system.sh, sync-user.sh, sync.sh) to deploy your changes.
