My machines and dotfiles management using Nix / NixOS.

Managing NixOS installation, you can use all nixos:* targets for example:

# build mrmeeseeks nixos:
task nixos:build:mrmeeseeks

# build/switch nixos installation for mrmeeseeks
task nixos:switch:mrmeeseeks

# build ephase home configuration for mrmeeseeks:
task home:build:mrmeeseeks

# build / switch ephase home configuration for mrmeeseeks

Update nixpkgs version

Update packages repositories version can be done with host:<hostname>:update:

task host:mrmeeseeks:update

flake.lock file will be updated then both NixOS and Home-Manager will be rebuilt. Note than new generation will not be activated, to do so you need to:

task host:mrmeeseeks:switch
