  • Nix – Death by a Thousand Cuts
    22 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 13 Jan 2025
    I'm running NixOS on a raspberry pi and I deploy to it with deploy-rs¹. This works pretty well for me. My dev machine is an Apple Silicon laptop with nix-darwin installed and I use its nix.linux-builder module to run an aarch64-linux VM as a remote builder to build the rpi's system. All this means the rpi never has to do any building itself, and doesn't even need the nixpkgs source installed either.

    If you want to do this yourself, I recommend using https://github.com/nix-community/raspberry-pi-nix so the system is configured much more closely to how the stock raspberry pi image works. The benefit of this is better reliability of stuff like bluetooth.

    We've been using Nix flakes and direnv (https://direnv.net/) for developer environments and NixOS with https://github.com/serokell/deploy-rs for prod/deploys - takes serious digging and time to set up, but excellent experience with it so far.

  • Managing NixOS on DigitalOcean with Colmena

    Colmena is a tool to manage multiple NixOS systems. It is similar to NixOps but fancier in spirit. I am not sure about the size of its userbase, but I do not see many other alternatives to my liking except NixOps4 and deploy-rs. So far, I am happy with it, so is my team.

    Deploy-rs is a great alternative. It works as wrapper on top of flakes, local (optionally, cross-) building and copying closures to target machine with activation:

  • How do you manage your updates?
    4 projects | /r/selfhosted | 13 May 2022
    The SSH key I made for this uses yubikey authentication, and every time this opens a SSH connection it will ask for the key. There's some options you can add so multiple SSH sessions can use a single connection, but the current version isn't really working well with them (see e.g. https://github.com/serokell/deploy-rs/issues/106)

    I haven't really been in the market for something like this in a long while, but NixOS solved a lot of my headaches when it comes to maintaining a VPS and I'd like to try giving this a shot again. I'm not really interested in cloud/microservice/docker/cluser/whatever, I just want to use something like deploy-rs with a single host and maybe a VPN service like tailscale. What sorts of providers would y'all recommend?

    I've messed around with deploy.rs. Simple enough to know what's going on.
