Config

This repository contains an extract from my personal configuration framework from which I have removed some sensitive information. This extraction being a manual operation, it will not always be up to date to my last tweakings, but you can get the general idea.

Sharing this here is a way to spread some ideas, some good aliases and other various customisations I use for my everyday comfort. Enjoy! :)

Organisation

  • Nix
    • common - configuration shared between hosts.
      • home-manager – common home configuration, to be imported in host-specific home configurations.
      • modules – NixOS or home-manager modules that are not ready enough or too much specific to be confkit or proposed in NixOS or home-manager.
      • nixos – personal NixOS configuration framework. This imports confkit, home-manager, and provides extentions to confkit.
      • overlays – nixpkgs overlays.
      • pkgs – packages.
      • res – resource files for the configuration.
      • users – common user definitions.
    • containers – configuration for containers (mostly redacted, some left for reference).
    • helios – configuration for my home NAS.
    • neptune – configuration for my server.
    • philae – configuration for my “lander”, used to transform any rescue system into NixOS.
    • pluton – configuration for my work VM.
    • saturne – configuration for my personal PC.
  • desktop – some desktop environment related configuration. Some more configuration (bspwn, …) can be found under Nix/.
  • spacemacs – Spacemacs configuration.
  • vscode – VSCode settings, keybindings and snippets.

History

Note: This is not up to date. I may update it in a future commit.

I started to use Zsh back in 2013 when another student introduced me to it. Then, I started to use vim, tmux and other console tools. I was sharing by hand any modifications between my personal computer and my server. There were only few modifications and it did not evolve quickly at the time.

In April 2017 I started my end-of-studies internship. Keeping configuration files up-to-date between machines started to become quite difficult, so I went for Git. The framework started then, as I broke up my ~/.zshrc to a few modular files. Following this way, I started to use this Git repository for all my configuration files, be it for tmux, vim, GnuPG and even Atom—and now VSCode.

In July 2018 I started using Nix and home-manager to manage my user environment. The current state of this framework reflects this: on my Mac and Linux computers, my user environemnt is fully handled by it. Currently, Zsh submodules are still linked in ~/.zsh and my main ~/.zshrc imports them. It may change in the future to Nix building a ~/.zshrc concatenating these files. I will however always keep pure Zsh files as source to maintain the compatibility with my FreeBSD server environment.

In December 2018 I extracted many files in a public configuration framework I have named confkit. It is refered as a submodule here and you can use it yourself if you want: while I am using the develop branch of it, I publish tagged versions with a changelog. Some features that are currently only in this repository may be extracted to confkit at some point.
