A very opinionated (technically only for me) configuration that allows easy adding and removing of systems alongside custom configurations for each system.

Usage

This flake is intended to be used as an input to your own NixOS configuration:

dashNix = {
  url = "github:DashieTM/DashNix";
  inputs = {
    # ensure these are here to update the packages on your own
    nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs";
    stable.follows = "stable";
  };
};

You can then configure your systems in your flake outputs with a provided library command:

nixosConfigurations = (inputs.dashNix.dashNixLib.build_systems [
  "system1"
  "system2"
  "system3"
] ./.);

In order for your configuration to work, you are required to at least provide a single config file with a further config file being optional for custom configuration. The hardware.nix specifies additional NixOS configuration, while home.nix specifies additional home-manager configuration. (both optional)

|- flake.nix
|- flake.lock
|- hosts/
|--- system1/
|------ configuration.nix (required)
|------ hardware.nix (optional)
|------ home.nix (optional)
|--- system2/

|------ hardware.nix (optional)
|------ home.nix (optional)
|--- system3/

Here is a minimal required configuration.nix (the TODOs mention a required change):

{
  # variables for system
  # TODO important changes
  conf = {
    # change this to your monitor and your pc name
    # should be something like DP-1
    monitor = "YOURMONITOR";
    # your username
    username = "YOURNAME";
    # the name of your system
    hostname = "YOURNAME";
    # TODO only needed when you use intel -> amd is default
    # cpu = "intel";
    locale = "something.UTF-8";
    timezone = "CONTINENT/CITY";
  };
  # modules
  mods = {
    # default disk config has root home boot and swap partition, overwrite if you want something different
    drives = {
        defaultDrives.enable = false;
        extraDrives = [
          {
            name = "boot";
            drive = {
              device = "/dev/disk/by-label/BOOT";
              fsType = "vfat";
              options = [ "rw" "fmask=0022" "dmask=0022" "noatime" ];
            };
          }
          {
            name = "";
            drive = {
              device = "/dev/disk/by-label/ROOT";
              fsType = "ext4";
              options = [ "noatime" "nodiratime" "discard" ];
            };
          }
        ];
    };
    sops.enable = false;
    nextcloud.enable = false;
    hyprland.monitor = [
      # default
      # TODO change this to your resolution
      "DP-1,1920x1080@144,0x0,1"
      # all others
      ",highrr,auto,1"
    ];
    # or amd, whatever you have
    gpu.nvidia.enable = true;
    kde_connect.enable = true;
    # TODO change this to your main resolution
    # -> this will be your login manager
    greetd = { resolution = "3440x1440@180"; };
  };
}

First Login

After logging in the first time, your password will be set to "firstlogin", please change this to whatever you like.

Nixos and Home-manager Modules

You can add additional modules or remove all of them by overriding parameters to the build_systems command:

nixosConfigurations =
    let
        additionalMods = {
            nixos = [
            # your modules
            ]; home = [
            # your modules
            ];
        }
        # passing this parameter will override the existing modules
        mods = {
            nixos = [];
            home = [];
        }
    in
    (inputs.dashNix.dashNixLib.build_systems [
        "system1"
    ] ./. mods additionalMods);

Modules

This configuration features several modules that can be used as preconfigured "recipies". These modules attempt to combine the home-manager and nixos packages/options to one single configuration file for each new system. For package lists, please check the individual modules, as the lists can be long.

• base packages : A list of system packages to be installed by default
