How to install from a clean install

Step 01: Disko time (optional)

Disko is a way to to declartive disk partitioning in NixOs. There is a good quickstart guide about it. The disko configurtion i am using is in the disko.nix file.

# Set the hostname
hostname="nixos"

# Define the keyfile name using the hostname with .luks.key extension
keyfile_name="${hostname}.luks.key"

# Generate the keyfile
dd if=/dev/urandom of=${keyfile_name} bs=1024 count=4

# Set appropriate permissions
chmod 600 ${keyfile_name}

# Read the keyfile content
keyfile_content=$(cat ${keyfile_name})

# Log in to Bitwarden CLI
bw login

# Create a secure note in Bitwarden with the keyfile content
bw create item '{"type": 2, "name": "'"${hostname} LUKS Keyfile"'", "notes": "'"${keyfile_content}"'"}'

Step 01: Clone the repo in `~/.setup` folder

nix-env -iA nixos.curl
curl -Lks https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nickhartjes/nix-os/main/nixos/scripts/install.sh | /bin/bash

Step 02:

Decrypt the secrets in the folder.

git-crypt unlock

Git-crypt

Step 03:

cd ~/.setup && sudo nixos-rebuild boot --flake .#$HOST

If you try building it before decrypting the secrets, it will fail. Encrypted files are in the Nixos store, please remove them first with sudo nix-collect-garbage -d. Then decrypt the folder and build again.
