Some checks failed
Check / eval (push) Has been cancelled
The machine flake's git-tracked settings file is system state, not "theme" only — rename it to state.json. CLI becomes nomarchy-state-sync with a nomarchy-theme-sync symlink for scripts and muscle memory. Eval (mkFlake, doctor, lifecycle) still accepts theme-state.json; the next write migrates to state.json and removes the legacy file. Documented in MIGRATION.md; drop the CLI alias after release notes.

# My Nomarchy machine
|
|
|
|
This directory is the **single source of truth** for a Nomarchy machine
|
|
flake. `nix flake init -t …` copies it as-is; **`nomarchy-install` copies
|
|
the same files and only patches** install-time values (username, hostname,
|
|
keyboard, detected hardware, password hash, …). Keep commented opt-ins and
|
|
`home.packages` here — do not invent a second catalog in the installer.
|
|
|
|
1. Overwrite the placeholder hardware config with the real one:
|
|
`nixos-generate-config --show-hardware-config > hardware-configuration.nix`
|
|
2. Set `flake.nix` up **once** (Nomarchy repo URL, your username, optionally
|
|
a `hardwareProfile` from <https://github.com/NixOS/nixos-hardware> — an
|
|
unknown name fails the rebuild with suggestions). After that the flake is
|
|
never touched again: your machine lives in `system.nix` (hostname,
|
|
services — the login user is created from `username` automatically) and
|
|
`home.nix` (your packages).
|
|
3. `git init && git add -A` — flakes only see tracked files, including
|
|
`state.json`.
|
|
4. System: `sudo nixos-rebuild switch --flake .#default`
|
|
5. Desktop: `nix run home-manager -- switch --flake .#me`
|
|
(afterwards just `home-manager switch --flake .#me` — it's installed)
|
|
6. Clone/symlink this directory to `~/.nomarchy` (or export
|
|
`NOMARCHY_PATH`) so `nomarchy-state-sync` knows where the state lives.
|
|
|
|
Day-to-day:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
nomarchy-state-sync list # 24 shipped presets
|
|
nomarchy-state-sync apply gruvbox # writes state + home-manager switch
|
|
nomarchy-state-sync bg next # cycle wallpapers (instant, no rebuild)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The system layer only needs `nixos-rebuild` when you change `system.nix`.
