Dotfiles

This is my personal dotfiles repository. The files are managed with nix-darwin and home-manager.

Fresh install

1. Make sure username is jaakkopaju

2. Change hostname to Jaakkos-MacBook-Pro for personal use, or Wolt-MacBook-Pro for work use

3. Install Nix

4. Install homebrew

5. Clone dotfiles repo to `~/.dotfiles

   nix run nixpkgs#git clone https://github.com/jpaju/dotfiles.git ~/dotfiles

6. Install nix-darwin

   nix run nix-darwin -- switch --flake ~/dotfiles

7. Configure sops-nix to manage secrets by configuring the private key. The private key must be placed in ~/.config/sops/age/keys.txt file . If nix has already installed packages, the secret can be configured with 1password CLI by running the following command:

   mkdir -p ~/.config/sops/age/
   op item get "sops-nix age private key" --fields password >> ~/.config/sops/age/keys.txt
