Cat NixOS dots

structure similar to @fufexan's¹ dots

My Catppuccin² themed dotfiles written in nix, managed with home-manager³ & NixOS

Meta

Usage

nixos-rebuild switch --flake . --use-remote-sudo

OS Support

Only NixOS is supported as of now, no nix-darwin, no NixNG, and no generic linux

Screenshots

Don't exist, because I don't feel this is unique enough to be shown off ATM, this is just so I have a public place to show my dots, but in the near future, that will not be the case 🙂

Overview of components

CLI

Shell

My shell is Z-shell⁴, prompt is Powerlevel10k⁵, and my plugins are managed with home-manager³, (Oh My ZSH free, and will always be)

Terminal

Good ol' Kitty⁶ with JetBrains Mono Nerd⁷

Fetch

Just Macchina⁸ nothing special, cat is in ascii.nix 🙂

GUI

GTK and Kvantum (QT)

Just using the respective themes from Catppuccin²

Compositor

Hyprland⁹, because who doesn't love Hyprland⁹?

Bar/Shell

ATM its all yoinked from @fufexan¹, which is built in eww¹⁰. Though don't use my setup as its mostly broken, working on a refactor in rust, and a refactor of menu.

Display Manager (AKA Login Manager)

Gtkgreet¹¹ running under Greetd¹², running under cage¹³, though the styling is pretty broken.

Media

Music

For music I use DownOnSpot¹⁴ to download my music from Spotify (Not using bypass, I'm paying for premium), which is tagged using beets¹⁵, then that music is synced with Nextcloud¹⁶, and played through MPD¹⁷, which is controlled by ncmpcpp¹⁸

Non music (aka video)

I have a basic MPV¹⁹ setup configured, but that's it, nothing special

Secrets

NixOS secrets are managed through agenix²⁰

Old home secret stuff

This does not apply anymore, I use agenix for everything, but my custom home secrets setup is still there is someone wants

Since agenix²⁰ doesn't support home secrets, nor did homeage²¹ work for me, or work how I wanted it too, I found it would be faster just to use write my own, maybe I'll publish and improve my implementation later on

TODO

• Add locking, and inhibiting of it

Credits

• Thankies nyx for some securties stuffs
