This repository contains configuration files for my NixOS, macOS, and WSL hosts.

They are organized and managed by Nix, so some of the configuration may be difficult to translate to a non-Nix system.

However, some of the configurations are easier to lift directly:

• Neovim
• Fish functions
• More fish aliases
• Git aliases
• Hammerspoon

Installation

NixOS - From Live Disk

Format drives and build system from any NixOS host, including the live installer disk:

This will erase your drives; use at your own risk!

lsblk # Choose the disk you want to wipe
nix-shell -p nixFlakes
nix run github:nmasur/dotfiles#installer -- nvme0n1 desktop

NixOS - From Existing System

If you're already running NixOS, you can switch to this configuration with the following command:

nix-shell -p nixFlakes
sudo nixos-rebuild switch --flake github:nmasur/dotfiles#desktop

Windows - From NixOS WSL

After installing NixOS on WSL, you can switch to the WSL configuration:

nix-shell -p nixFlakes
sudo nixos-rebuild switch --flake github:nmasur/dotfiles#wsl

macOS

To get started on a bare macOS installation, first install Nix:

sh -c "$(curl -L https://nixos.org/nix/install)"

Then use Nix to build nix-darwin:

nix-build https://github.com/LnL7/nix-darwin/archive/master.tar.gz -A installer
./result/bin/darwin-installer

Then switch to the macOS configuration:

darwin-rebuild switch --flake github:nmasur/dotfiles#macbook

Dealing with corporate MITM SSL certificates:

# Get the certificates
openssl s_client -showcerts -verify 5 -connect cache.nixos.org:443 < /dev/null

# Paste them in here
sudo nvim $NIX_SSL_CERT_FILE

Dealing with Neovim issues:

Update Neovim Packer plugins: :PackerSync

Update TreeSitter languages: :TSUpdateSync

Flake Templates

You can also use the templates as flakes for starting new projects:

nix flake init --template github:nmasur/dotfiles#poetry
