This is my personal Nix for macOS configuration.

Prerequisites

Nix

$ sh <(curl -L https://nixos.org/nix/install)

Xcode Command Line Tools

$ xcode-select --install

Rosetta 2

$ softwareupdate --install-rosetta

Getting started

1. Clone this repository

$ git clone [email protected]:benjidotsh/nix.git

2. Deploy the configuration

$ nix build .#darwinConfigurations.$(hostname -s).system --extra-experimental-features 'nix-command flakes'

$ sudo ./result/sw/bin/darwin-rebuild switch --flake .#$(hostname -s)

After deploying the configuration for the first time, you can simply run just deploy to apply changes.

To view all available commands, run just.

Additional configuration

The following configuration can't be managed by Nix and needs to be configured manually:

  1. Open 1Password → Settings → Developer.
  2. Enable “Use the SSH agent”.

• Apply the custom Terminal theme

  1. Open Terminal → Settings → Profiles.
  2. Import catppuccin-macchiato.terminal and set it as default.
