Modularized configuration for a NixOS system

nixos-configuration

This is a decently modularized set of configuration files for a NixOS system, which I mainly use to configure my laptop.

The entrypoint is default.nix, and the module system is used heavily.

Private files/data are placed in a private subdirectory, which is hidden via .gitignore.

I place this repository in /etc/nixos, next to my local checkout of nixpkgs, which I use instead of the channel mechanism. A suitably modified NIX_PATH allows this to work (see nix.nix).

[anders@gurney:/etc/nixos]
