eksys - System and User Configuration

Nix configurations for my MacOS and NixOS hosts.

Install MacOS

  1. Install Nix package manager: https://nixos.org/download.html#nix-install-macos
  2. Clone or download the flake source from GitHub.
  3. Run ./bootstrap.sh to build and apply the system configuration.

The bootstrap command builds a derivation and then activates it with nix-darwin. The bootstrap command likely won't succeed on the first run, but if it fails, there should be instructions for manual remediation. Once those are performed, you can re-run ./bootstrap.sh (there might be a few cycles of this).

Update MacOS

Rebuild and apply: nixswitch

This is an alias for building and activating the system configuration flake, which is effectively the same as:

darwin-rebuild switch --flake .#

To get latest packages, go into the flake source directory and run:

nix flake update

In order to apply the update, use nixswitch after.

To update inputs and apply the change run nixup.

To update a specific input (using envim as an example): nix flake lock --update-input envim
