config using nix and flake

This is the multi-machine configuration for my Darwin (macOS) and Linux systems, managed via Nix Flakes, nix-darwin, and home-manager.

• Git: Required to clone this repository.
• Homebrew (Darwin only): Used for managing some macOS applications.

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"

• Nix: Install Nix with Flakes support.

curl -fsSL https://install.determinate.systems/nix | sh -s -- install

1. Clone this repository into ~/.config/nix:

git clone https://github.com/thekorn/nix-config.git ~/.config/nix
cd ~/.config/nix

2. Apply the configuration for your host:

For a first-time installation:

nix run nix-darwin -- switch --flake .#<hostname>

For subsequent updates:

darwin-rebuild switch --flake .#<hostname>

sudo nixos-rebuild switch --flake .#<hostname>

To deploy a Linux host remotely from another machine on the network:

nix run .#deploy-thekorn-server
nix run .#deploy-thekorn-server-2
nix run .#deploy-thekorn-vm
nix run .#deploy-thekorn-vm-desktop

This connects to the matching thekorn@<hostname>, builds on the target, and activates the matching NixOS configuration there.

• thekorn-server (Main server)
• thekorn-server-2 (Second server)
• thekorn-vm (VM)
• thekorn-vm-desktop (Desktop VM)

• Format code: nix fmt .
• Update inputs: nix flake update
