Nix configuration for Mac

Nix configuration that consolidates Mac management in a declarative way.

Pre-requisites

To make use of the repository the following are required:

• Nix Package Manager

  curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf -L https://install.determinate.systems/nix | sh -s -- install
  

• Brew

  /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"
  

Initial run

Before the first run, there are no aliases and no configuration yet installed, run the initialization command first:

nix run nix-darwin -- switch --flake ~/.config/nix-darwin

Now the system is configured

Applying changes

Every time an update happens you need to run the following command:

darwin-rebuild switch --flake ~/.config/nix-darwin

There is also an alias added to make it easier:

nix-rebuild
