sops-nix

get user (dev) key for sops:

mkdir .config/sops/age
age-keygen -o .config/sops/age/keys.txt

get age public key from the machine ssh key to put into .sops.yaml:

nix-shell -p ssh-to-age --run 'cat /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ed25519_key.pub | ssh-to-age'

if there are any erros with the keys, or after the keys were changed:

sops updatekeys /etc/nixos/core/secrets/secrets.yaml

note: if no key is able to decrypt this command will fail

copy ssh key into /hosts

cp /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ed25519_key.pub /etc/nixos/hosts/zireael/zireael.pub

put password hash into secrets.yaml, to get hash:

mkpasswd -s

mkdir ~/onedrive

cd /etc/nixos/ && nix flake update && nh home switch && nh os switch

WSL install

Enable WSL if you haven't done already:

Download nixos-wsl.tar.gz from the latest release.

Import the tarball into WSL:

    wsl --import NixOS --version 2 $env:USERPROFILE\NixOS\ nixos-wsl.tar.gz

You can now run NixOS:

    wsl -d NixOS
