My dotfiles

• Machine selection
• Manual symlinks
• Secrets management with sops
  • Edit secrets
  • Authorize new device

My dotfiles for which I am using nix. The structure is managed by Snowfall lib

Machine selection

home-manager automatically searches for user or user@hostname config in the flake, so specify one of those or you will have to manually specify them: home-manager switch --flake .#user@hostname

Manual symlinks

/julian/dotfiles/src/branch/master/laptop-nix.conf was manually symlinked to file:/etc/nix/nix.conf and /julian/dotfiles/src/branch/master/flake.nix was symlinked to file:~/.config/home-manager/flake.nix

For deployment!!

Secrets management with sops

Full documentation here: https://github.com/Mic92/sops-nix

Edit secrets

sops edit secrets/secrets.yaml

Authorize new device

• Generate public key from ssh -> Private age key generation not needed

ssh-to-age < /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ed25519_key

• Update keys

sops updatekeys secrets/*
