** My Themes
** Themes
[[https://github.com/danth/stylix#readme][Stylix]] (and [[https://github.com/SenchoPens/base16.nix#readme][base16.nix]], of course) is amazing, allowing you to theme your entire system with base16-themes.
Using this I have [[./themes][59+ themes]] (I add more sometimes) I can switch between on-the-fly. Visit the [[./themes][themes directory]] for more info and screenshots!
Using this I have [[./modules/themes][a lot of themes]] (I add more sometimes) I can switch between on-the-fly. Visit the [[./modules/themes][themes directory]] for more info and screenshots!
** Install
I wrote some reinstall notes for myself [[./install.org][here (install.org)]].
TLDR: You should™ be able to install my dotfiles to a fresh NixOS system with the following experimental script:
#+begin_src sh :noeval
nix-shell -p git --command "nix run --experimental-features 'nix-command flakes' gitlab:librephoenix/nixos-config"
#+end_src
Disclaimer: Ultimately, I can't gaurantee this will work for anyone other than myself, so /use this at your own discretion/. Also my dotfiles are /highly/ opinionated, which you will discover immediately if you try them out.
Potential Errors: I've only tested it working on UEFI with the default EFI mount point of =/boot=. I've added experimental legacy (BIOS) boot support, but it does rely on a quick and dirty script to find the grub device. If you are testing it using some weird boot configuration for whatever reason, try modifying =bootMountPath= (UEFI) or =grubDevice= (legacy BIOS) in =flake.nix= before install, or else it will complain about not being able to install the bootloader.
Note: If you're installing this to a VM, Hyprland won't work unless 3D acceleration is enabled.
Security Disclaimer: If you install or copy my =homelab= or =worklab= profiles, /CHANGE THE PUBLIC SSH KEYS UNLESS YOU WANT ME TO BE ABLE TO SSH INTO YOUR SERVER. YOU CAN CHANGE OR REMOVE THE SSH KEY IN THE RELEVANT CONFIGURATION.NIX/:
- [[./profiles/homelab/configuration.nix][configuration.nix]] for homelab profile
- [[./profiles/worklab/configuration.nix][configuration.nix]] for worklab profile
Check them out if you'd like to try out my config in a VM or base your config on mine.
** Modules
Separate Nix files can be imported as modules using an import block:

This conveniently allows configurations to be (*cough cough) /modular/ (ba dum, tssss).
I have my modules separated into two groups:
- System-level - stored in the [[./system][system directory]]
- System-level modules are imported into configuration.nix, which is what is sourced into [[./flake.nix][my flake (flake.nix)]]
- User-level - stored in the [[./user][user directory]] (managed by home-manager)
- User-level modules are imported into home.nix, which is also sourced into [[./flake.nix][my flake (flake.nix)]]
I have my modules separated into three subdirectories:
- System-level - stored in the [[./modules/system][system directory]]
- User-level - stored in the [[./modules/user][user directory]]
More detailed information on these specific modules are in the [[./system][system directory]] and [[./user][user directory]] respectively.

I currently curate patches local to this repo in the [[./patches][patches]] directory.
** Profiles
I separate my configurations into [[./profiles][profiles]] (essentially system templates), i.e:
- [[./profiles/personal][Personal]] - What I would run on a personal laptop/desktop
- [[./profiles/work][Work]] - What I would run on a work laptop/desktop (if they let me bring my own OS :P)
- [[./profiles/homelab][Homelab]] - What I would run on a server or homelab
- [[./profiles/wsl][WSL]] - What I would run underneath Windows Subystem for Linux
My profile can be conveniently selected in [[./flake.nix][my flake.nix]] by setting the =profile= variable.
More detailed information on these profiles is in the [[./profiles][profiles directory]].
** Hosts
Configurations for all my machines are in [[./hosts][hosts]].
** Nix Wrapper Script
Some Nix commands are confusing, really long to type out, or require me to be in the directory with my dotfiles. To solve this, I wrote a [[./system/bin/phoenix.nix][wrapper script called phoenix]], which calls various scripts in the root of this directory.

TLDR:
- =phoenix sync= - Synchronize system and home-manager state with config files (essentially =nixos-rebuild switch= + =home-manager switch=)
- =phoenix sync system= - Only synchronize system state (essentially =nixos-rebuild switch=)
- =phoenix sync user= - Only synchronize home-manager state (essentially =home-manager switch=)
- =phoenix sync= - Synchronize system state with config
- =phoenix build= - Build all host configurations and push results to attic (requires attic config to be setup)
- =phoenix update= - Update all flake inputs without synchronizing system and home-manager states
- =phoenix upgrade= - Update flake.lock and synchronize system and home-manager states (=phoenix update= + =phoenix sync=)
- =phoenix update INPUT= - Update only the specified =INPUT= (see inputs in [[./flake.nix][flake.nix]])
- =phoenix refresh= - Call synchronization posthooks (mainly to refresh stylix and some dependent daemons)
- =phoenix pull= - Pull changes from upstream git and attempt to merge local changes (I use this to update systems other than my main system)
- =phoenix harden= - Ensure that all "system-level" files cannot be edited by an unprivileged user
- =phoenix soften= - Relax permissions so all dotfiles can be edited by a normal user (use temporarily for git or other operations)
- =phoenix lock= - Ensure that all "system-level" files cannot be edited by an unprivileged user
- =phoenix unlock= - Relax permissions so all dotfiles can be edited by a normal user (use temporarily for git or other operations)
- =phoenix gc= - Garbage collect the system and user nix stores
- =phoenix gc full= - Delete everything not currently in use
- =phoenix gc 15d= - Delete everything older than 15 days
