Soikr's Darwindots (Soon Monorepo)!

A usable, performance oriented, and practical setup (2013 iMac)

Installation (NEEDS TO BE REWORKED)

1. Installing nix (lix):

curl -sSf -L https://install.lix.systems/lix | sh -s -- install

2. Clone the repo into a designated spot in your home folder (ie. ~/.nixpgs):

nix shell --extra-experimental-features 'nix-command flakes' nixpkgs#git nixpkgs#vim
git clone https://github.com/SoiKr/darwindots ~/.nixconf
cd ~/.nixconf

3. Edit the configuration, especially the username and hostname

Important

Dont forget to set your system hostname and user to this.

4. Setting up nix-darwin and applying the config:

sudo nix run nix-darwin/master#darwin-rebuild -- switch .#

Note

It may error due to missing XCode, you might have to install this.

Its too inconsistent to install through Nix.

Please reboot after this.

Applying changes from the config

darwin-rebuild switch --flake ~/.nixconf

Updating

nix flake update # All Inputs
nix flake lock --update-input <input> # Single  Input

Preset ZSH Aliases for managing nix:

dr = darwin-rebuild switch --flake ~/.nixconf # Darwin
nim = "vim ~./.nixconf"
nsearch = "nix search nixpkgs"
ngc = "nix-collect-garbage -d && && nix store optimise"
nv = "nix store verify"
