First Install

• Before anything else, ensure the generated hardware-configuration is copied over into the desired hostname target in systems directory.
• //todo add experimental whatevers nixos-rebuild switch --flake /etc/nixos#gpdPocket3
• copy oover this systems ssh public key pairs into the ./secrets/secrets.nix file - push those up, using another computer re-key all the secrets, push up again
  • pull new secrets down with new added keys

Later updates

• nix flake update /etc/nixos
• nixos-rebuild switch --flake /etc/nixos

Cleanup boot

I used the existing windows 100MB boot partition and it fills up constantly. Have to purge old stuff a lot this is how:

• find '/boot/loader/entries' -type f | head -n -4 | xargs -I {} rm {}; nix-collect-garbage -d; nixos-rebuild boot; echo; df

Settings references:

• Flake docs: https://nixos.wiki/wiki/Flakes
• nixos: https://search.nixos.org/options
• home manager: https://nix-community.github.io/home-manager/options.xhtml TODO make an offline version of this, does someone else have this already?

TODO

• Secret management?
  • ssh keys for github/etc
• Use top level split out home manager configurations instead of the one built into the system config...
• Make a flake for neovim and move out some system packages required for that into that flake, re-use for root and user rather than cloning each place?
• EDITOR env var set to neovim
• gif command from video

gif () {
  if [[ -z $1 ]]; then
    echo "No gif specified"
    return 1
  fi
  ffmpeg -i $1 -filter_complex "fps=7,scale=iw:-1:flags=lanczos,split[s0][s1];[s0]palettegen=max_colors=32[p];[s1][p]paletteuse=dither=bayer" $1".gif"
