• dotfiles A directory for all shared non-nix dotfiles.
• hosts All subdirectories of hosts are all files specific to one host.
  • dotfiles Non-nix dotfiles that are specific to that host.
• lib Nix functions used throughout the config.
• modules Somewhat coherently organized files that many systems use.
• secrets Agenix secrets mostly used for my home server.

How to rebuild the system

After cloning this repo to your home directory just run this command:

sudo nixos-rebuild switch --flake /home/<USER>/NixOS#<SYSTEM>

Replace <USER> and <SYSTEM> with something that makes sense. Options for <SYSTEM>: pc laptop servarr

How to add a secret

1. Add an entry to secrets/secrets.nix with its keys.
2. Write whatever it is in the env file using agenix -e <SECRET_NAME>.age. (to get agenix use nix develop)
3. To use that secret add it in the hosts/<HOST>/secrets.nix file.
4. Then in the configuration use config.age.secrets.<SECRET_NAME>.path to get the path of the file.
