Installation

** IMPORTANT: do NOT use my laptop.nix and/or desktop.nix! These files include settings that are specific to MY drives and they will mess up for you if you try to use them on your system. **

Please be warned that it may not work perfectly out of the box. For best security, read over all the files to confirm there are no conflictions with your current system.

Prerequisites:

Clone the repo and cd into it:

git clone https://github.com/notusknot/dotfiles-nix ~/.config/nixos && cd ~/.config/nixos

First, create a hardware configuration for your system:

sudo nixos-generate-config

You can then copy this to a the hosts/ directory (note: change yourComputer with whatever you want):

mkdir hosts/yourComputer
cp /etc/nixos/hardware-configuration.nix ~/.config/nixos/hosts/yourComputer/

You can either add or create your own output in flake.nix, by following this template:

nixosConfigurations = {
    # Now, defining a new system is can be done in one line
    #                                Architecture   Hostname
    laptop = mkSystem inputs.nixpkgs "x86_64-linux" "laptop";
    desktop = mkSystem inputs.nixpkgs "x86_64-linux" "desktop";
    # ADD YOUR COMPUTER HERE! (feel free to remove mine)
    yourComputer = mkSystem inputs.nixpkgs "x86_64-linux" "yourComputer";
};

Next, create hosts/yourComputer/user.nix, a configuration file for your system for any modules you want to enable:

{ config, lib, inputs, ...}:

{
    imports = [ ../../modules/default.nix ];
    config.modules = {
        # gui
        hyprland.enable = true;

        # cli
        nvim.enable = true;

        # system
        xdg.enable = true;
    };
}

The above config installs and configures hyprland, nvim, and xdg user directories. Each config is modularized so you don't have to worry about having to install the software alongside it, since the module does it for you. Every available module can be found in the modules directory.

Lastly, build the configuration with

sudo nixos-rebuild switch --flake .#yourComputer

And that should be it! If there are any issues please don't hesistate to submit an issue or contact me.
