CRUSH Configuration for Christian’s Dotfiles

Build/Deploy Commands

# Enable flakes on non-NixOS systems
./enable-flakes

# Deploy home-manager configuration (default)
nix run

# Deploy for headless systems
nix run .#christian@headless

# Deploy NixOS system configuration
nixos-rebuild switch --flake .

# Deploy from remote
nixos-rebuild switch --flake github:meowgorithm/dotfiles/master

# Test configuration build without switching
nix build .#packages.x86_64-linux.default

Note: Nix commands you can, and are encouraged, to check the number of system cores and use the -j flag to speed up builds, e.g. nix build -j 32.

Code Style Guidelines

Nix Files

• When creating modules, prefer single file (name.nix) over directories (./name/default.nix)
• Format all files with alejandra
• Function parameters on separate lines with }:
• let...in blocks for local bindings
• Attribute sets use {} with proper alignment
• String interpolation: "${variable}"
• Comments with # prefix
• Import paths: ./relative/path.nix

Imports & Dependencies

• System imports: {pkgs, lib, ...}:
• Input references: inputs."${name}"
• Use lib. prefix for lib functions
• Overlays for custom packages/NURs

Naming Conventions

• camelCase for variables and functions
• kebab-case for package names and attributes
• hostname-based configurations
• Module files: default.nix

Error Handling

• Use lib.mkIf for conditionals
• Platform-specific with pkgs.stdenv.isDarwin
• Optional modules with lib.optionals
