✨ Puzzlevision ✨

Non-stop entertainment! The wackiest NixOS configuration to-date.

🚧 State of development

Version 2.0 is still very much an experiment and not ready to be used in a production environment. If you must, try running it within a VM using the provided deployment instructions.

🚀 Deployment

To deploy a system run the following command in your terminal of choice.

sudo nixos-rebuild switch --flake .#hostname

If you're interested in a quick way to experiment with this configuration, you may use the following command to build a VM.

sudo nixos-rebuild build-vm --flake .#hostname

📝 Goals and improvements

The main goals of this rewritten flake are:

• using flake-parts in place of Snowfall lib
• significantly improving the re-usability of all modules
• avoiding anti-patterns, such as with lib; with lib.${namespace};
• improved secrets management
• keeping external assets closer to their related nix file, e.g. wallpapers in the desktop modules folder

🏗️ Structure

The structure this flake aims to build on is relatively simple to grasp.

flake.nix  --> The flake.
/systems   --> NixOS configurations for various types of systems, using easy-hosts.
/modules   --> Modules that are mapped to their corresponding easy-hosts class (and home modules).
  /nixos   --> (example) Modules specific to the nixos class configured in easy-hosts.
/homes     --> Directory for home-manager configurations, not specific to the system type.
/lib       --> A place for custom lib attributes exposed on the flake namespace (lib.puzzlevision.mkOpt).
(more...)  --> Additional directories have been considered (e.g. shells), but as of right now, they serve no use to me.
