Truxnell's homelab

Leveraging nix, nix-os to apply machine and home configurations

Background

Having used a variety of infracture as code solutions - and having found them lacking in some areas, it is time to give nix a go. Frustrations with other methods tend to be bitrot and config drift - very annoying to want to do a quick disaster recovery and find your have different versions of modules/utilities, breaking changes in code you didnt catch, etc.

Getting started

To Install

# nixos-rebuild switch --flake github:truxnell/nix-config#HOST

Goals

Learn nix
Mostly reproduce features from my existing homelab
Replace existing ubuntu-based 'NAS'
Expand usage to other shell environments such as WSL, etc
handle secrets - decide between sweet and simple SOPS or re-use my doppler setup.

TODO

Github Actions update fly.io instances (Bitwarden)
Bring over hosts
- DNS01 Raspi4
- DNS02 Raspi4
- NAS
- Latop
- WSL
- JJY emulator Raspi4

Applying configuration changes on a local machine can be done as follows:

cd ~/dotfiles
sudo nixos-rebuild switch --flake .
# This will automatically pick the configuration name based on the hostname

Applying configuration changes to a remote machine can be done as follows:

cd ~/dotfiles
nixos-rebuild switch --flake .#nameOfMachine --target-host machineToSshInto --use-remote-sudo
