Make the downstream template the single source of truth for machine flakes: nomarchy-install copies flake/system/home/theme-state and patch-template.py only fills hostname, user, keyboard, detected hardware, snapper, resume, and password. Install and flake-init users now share the same commented opt-ins and starter home.packages. Also: BACKLOG boreal-as-default proposal; installer audit notes; HARDWARE.md from prior work if uncommitted.
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.
- Overwrite the placeholder hardware config with the real one:
nixos-generate-config --show-hardware-config > hardware-configuration.nix - Set
flake.nixup once (Nomarchy repo URL, your username, optionally ahardwareProfilefrom 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 insystem.nix(hostname, services — the login user is created fromusernameautomatically) andhome.nix(your packages). git init && git add -A— flakes only see tracked files, includingtheme-state.json.- System:
sudo nixos-rebuild switch --flake .#default - Desktop:
nix run home-manager -- switch --flake .#me(afterwards justhome-manager switch --flake .#me— it's installed) - Clone/symlink this directory to
~/.nomarchy(or exportNOMARCHY_PATH) sonomarchy-theme-syncknows where the state lives.
Day-to-day:
nomarchy-theme-sync list # 21 shipped presets
nomarchy-theme-sync apply gruvbox # writes state + home-manager switch
nomarchy-theme-sync bg next # cycle wallpapers (instant, no rebuild)
The system layer only needs nixos-rebuild when you change system.nix.
