home-manager configuration

This is my personal configuration for home-manager.

First steps on nix world, I'm currently just using home-manager to install utilities I need day by day.

I'm using direnv and nix develop or devbox to manage my development environments.

Dotfiles and secrets are sops-encryted and stored in a private repository.

How to bootstrap a new host

1. Install nix and home-manager (depends on target OS)
2. Clone this repository
3. Run nix develop enter a development environment
4. Generate age key for this host age-keygen -o ~/.config/sops/age/keys.txt
5. Add the public key to sops config of the private repository and re-encrypt everything/prepare the secrets for this host
6. Run gh auth login to authenticate with GitHub and create a private key for the host
7. Run home-manager switch to apply the configuration

Keep it update

nix flake update
home-manager build -L |& nom

# If there are no errors
home-manager switch -L |& nom
