**NOTE: The sdata/dist-nix is not for NixOS but every distro, using Nix and home-manager.**
## plan
TODO:
Write a proper `flake.nix` and optionally `home.nix` and other files under `./sdata/dist-nix/iiqs-hm/` to install all dependencies that `./sdata/dist-arch/install-deps.sh` does. (**excluding** the screenlock)
TODO:
In this script, implement the process below:
1. Warning user about "this script is only experimental and must only use it at your own risks.", and prompt `y/N` (default N) before proceeding.
2. If nix not installed:
1. install nix via [NixOS/experimental-nix-installer](https://github.com/NixOS/experimental-nix-installer)
2. Enable nix for shell
- Update: Skip this step cuz the nix-installer will handle it automatically e.g. in `/etc/zsh/zshrc`.
3. Ensure the experimental feature, Nix Flake, is enabled.
3. cd to `iiqs-hm` and use something like `home-manager switch --flake .#iiqs` to install the dependencies.
4. Install screen lock using system package manager of the current distro.
Note that this script must be idempotent.
TODO:
Write guide for people already use nix, so they can manually grab things from this repo to their own Nix/home-manager configurations to install the dependencies.
- [ ] Write a proper `flake.nix` and `home.nix` and other files under `dist-nix/home-manager/` to install all dependencies that `dist-arch/` does. (**excluding** the screenlock)

### NixGL
On non-NixOS distros, packages installed via home-manager have problem accessing GPU, especially Hyprland because it requires GPU acceleration to launch. `nixGL` should be used to address the problem. Example code in `home.nix`:
```
{ config, lib, pkgs, nixgl, ... }:
{
nixGL.packages = nixgl.packages;
nixGL.defaultWrapper = "mesa";
# other lines not showed here ...
home = {
packages = with pkgs; [
cowsay # normal packages that does not need nixGL
lolcat
# other lines not showed here ...
]
++ [
(config.lib.nixGL.wrap pkgs.firefox-bin)
(config.lib.nixGL.wrap pkgs.hyprland)
# other lines not showed here ...
];
# other lines not showed here ...
};
}
```
And in `flake.nix`:
```nix
{
inputs = {
nixpkgs.url = "nixpkgs/nixos-25.05";
home-manager = {
url = "github:nix-community/home-manager/release-25.05";
inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs";
};
hyprland = {
url = "github:hyprwm/Hyprland";
};
nixgl.url = "github:nix-community/nixGL";
};
outputs = { nixpkgs, home-manager, nixgl, ... }:
let
lib = nixpkgs.lib;
system = "x86_64-linux";
pkgs = import nixpkgs {
inherit system;
overlays = [ nixgl.overlay ];
};
in {
homeConfigurations = {
mydot = home-manager.lib.homeManagerConfiguration {
inherit pkgs;
extraSpecialArgs = { inherit nixgl; };
modules = [ ./home.nix ];
};
};
};
}
```
