# My NixOS Configurations ❄
This repository contains the configurations of my machines using NixOS.
### *What is NixOS ?*
NixOS is a linux distribution based on the Nix package manager. It allows fully reproducible builds and a declarative configuration style, using a functionnal langage called Nix (yes, it is the same name as the package manager and the OS).
### *What is a flake ?*
2021-12-23 23:57:26 +01:00
This whole repository is a flake. It is an experimental feature of Nix, allowing for pure evaluation of code. Dependency are fully specified and locked.
### *How does this work ?*
#### Machines
This project manage the configuration of three machines :
- **Macintosh**, a thinkpad laptop,
- **Lisa**, a high performance server,
- **Newton**, a low performance stockage server.
Machines configurations are located in the machines folder, and are using all the custom modules defined in this project.
#### Modules
This configuration defines a number of custom NixOS and home-manager modules. They are respectively defined in the modules and home-manager-modules folders.
#### Secrets
Secrets are stored in the secrets folder. They are decrypted upon system activation using the host ssh key.
### Inspiration
This project is freely inspired by some really cool projects, including MayNiklas/nixos, pinox/nixos and ncfavier/config.
