NixOS Config

This is my NixOS config. There are many like it but this one is mine.

Use

The repository splits apart hardware configuration, machines roles and various snippets. The appropriate files are included in the installer-generated configuration.nix like such:

{ config, pkgs, ... }:

{
  imports =
    [
      ./hardware-configuration.nix
      ./hardware/thinkpad_x250.nix
      ./modules/laptop.nix
    ];

  networking.hostName = "woodstock";

[...]

Notes

Build a package manually

nix-build -E "with import <nixpkgs> {}; callPackage ./default.nix {}"
