# Rathi's Nix Config
|
|
|
|
This repo is the source of truth for your macOS setup, built with:
|
|
|
|
- `nix-darwin` for system settings
|
|
- `home-manager` for home directory files
|
|
- upstream flakes where that is the cleanest package source, such as `github:googleworkspace/cli`
|
|
- `nix-homebrew` plus `homebrew.*` only for the small set of apps and holdouts still kept in Homebrew
|
|
|
|
## Current approach
|
|
|
|
The repo now owns the active shell/editor/tool config directly:
|
|
|
|
- `home/` contains the Home Manager modules for user-facing tools
|
|
- `config/` contains the repo-owned config trees copied from your daily setup
|
|
- `modules/homebrew.nix` is intentionally narrow and should keep shrinking over time
|
|
- Homebrew cleanup is still set to `"none"` so the first switch is non-destructive
|
|
|
|
## Layout
|
|
|
|
- `flake.nix`: top-level flake and host wiring
|
|
- `hosts/hari-macbook-pro/default.nix`: this machine's host config
|
|
- `modules/base.nix`: Nix settings and core packages
|
|
- `modules/macos.nix`: macOS defaults and host-level settings
|
|
- `modules/packages.nix`: system packages and fonts
|
|
- `modules/homebrew.nix`: the remaining Homebrew-managed apps and packages
|
|
- `home/`: Home Manager modules for shell, editor, CLI tools, and app config
|
|
- `config/`: repo-owned config files consumed by Home Manager
|
|
|
|
## Commands
|
|
|
|
Bootstrap the host:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
nix run github:LnL7/nix-darwin/master#darwin-rebuild -- switch --flake .#hari-macbook-pro
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
After the first successful switch:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
just switch
|
|
just build
|
|
just check
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## What Still Needs Manual Work
|
|
|
|
- Secrets and tokens under `~/.secrets`, `~/.npmrc`, `~/.config/gcloud`, `~/.config/gh`, and similar paths
|
|
- Launch agents that are currently outside Nix
|
|
- App state under `~/Library/Application Support`
|
|
- Anything that depends on local credentials, keychains, or encrypted stores
|
|
- Deciding whether the remaining Homebrew entries should stay there or be eliminated
|
|
|
|
## Current Homebrew Scope
|
|
|
|
The current Homebrew boundary is intentionally small:
|
|
|
|
- CLI holdouts: `memex`, `postgresql@17`, `python@3.13`, `graphite`, `worktrunk`
|
|
- GUI apps: `cap`, `raycast`, `thebrowsercompany-dia`, `wispr-flow`
|
|
|
|
If you want a zero-Homebrew machine, this is the list that still has to be replaced or intentionally dropped.
