Highly experimental GUI for NixOS. For now I expect to frequently make large changes and break stuff whenever I'm working on this. Screenshots in this README may be out of date as well.
Currently consists of the binaries nixos-option-browser
and nixos-config-browser
for viewing documentation and configuration respectively.
A third binary for editing a JSON representation of the NixOS configuration is on my mind but would be a significant undertaking.
I plan to devote my attention to the other binaries first so this may remain a pipedream.
The most basic binary, allows viewing documentation akin to man configuration.nix
.
The following screenshot shows the nixos-option-browser
opened with the containers.<name>.ephemeral
option focused:
This allows viewing the documentation like nixos-option-browser
but now also shows the final configuration value like nixos-option
and a nix repl
with (builtins.getFlake "/etc/nixos").nixosConfigurations.hostname.config
do.
