nixos-configuration VS nix-ld

You can create custom nixos modules and enable them in desired systems. E.g. Here is my custom gaming module and here I enable it for one of my machines.

Sure, here is my rpi config. I'll need to check the bootloader file later and let you know.

I have slightly different workflow (direnv + flakes + poetry + nvim). Take a look at my template. You can put this flake.nix file in a poetry based project and type nix develop to enter a shell with activated poetry venv and all dependencies installed. Launch helix from this shell and you are good to go.

This is great. I have a very simmilar flake, but with venvShellHook so venv is also activated when I enter the project directort.

If you need reference, I have my setup on github.

Sorry from the invalid command, that is a derp from my side :x I also use zsh, but I don't have the same issue with # and I don't do anything special in my config to mitigate this... You can also use a backslash to escape this character (tab completion always inserts it for me). Anyway this is my zsh config if you need a reference.

Gnome can be configured programatically with dconf. You can use dconf-editor to explore available options and than set some option declaratively with home-manager. I use ths method to configure wallpaper, night light and gnome-terminal, but there are much more options. My config for reference.

Devops with Kubernetes, Go and Python here. Nix works great for this usecase, having all my tools defined in a single file is amazing. Although I mainly use Neovim, VSCode works fine as well. You can use such extension or simply enter a nix shell in the terminal and launch code . from there.

You may be interested in `nix-ld`. https://github.com/Mic92/nix-ld

As I mentioned I used nix-index to build LD_LIBRARY_PATH. I believe I picked that up from nix-ld. The README on that page shows an example and mentions some tools (nix-autobahn, nix-alien, and nix-index) to help figure it out.

Hi guys, I really like NixOS. I also do not want to miss nix-ld, because it allows me to run "normal" Linux programs on nix.

As someone who has been using NixOS for a couple of years now, I really want to say how appreciative I am of everybody for making noticeable improvements to the system on a somewhat regular basis. The nix command keeps on adding great new features like flake templates and bundling as well as just being more user friendly (error messages, actionable hints, etc.) Additionally, tools like nix-ld [1] make nix more usable than ever with software from external sources. Things just keep on getting better for NixOS users!

Despite the reputation, I feel that NixOS or some derivative of it has the power to become the best distribution for non-technical users in the long run. What NixOS has done is effectively built an interface to every component of a modern Linux system, all that needs to be built is a user application to take advantage of it. Of course, there still needs be some improvements in Nix itself for it to blossom into its final form, but I really see a path to greatness here.

I have often thought about creating a simple unified Win2K-esq or BeOS-like X11 WM/DE specifically for NixOS but unfortunately I like the time/motivation.

Regarding the ld thing, I don't know if this is relevant but probably: https://github.com/Mic92/nix-ld

Have a look at nix-ld and nix-autobahn.
