## Adding a new macOS host ## Adding a new macOS host
1. clone this repo 1. run `xcode-select --install` to install the command-line developer tools (this includes the Apple's stock version of Git).
2. add entry to `flake.nix` 2. create ed25519 ssh key via `ssh-keygen -t ed25519`
3. add file at `modules/home-manager/hosts/< hostname >/< username >.nix` 3. add key to GitHub account
4. add file at `modules/hosts/< system >/< hostname >/default.nix` 4. run macOS graphical installer from https://determinate.systems/posts/graphical-nix-installer
- run brew leaves and look for things installed from taps you don't want any more 5. run `mkdir ~/repos`
- uninstall the program and the tap if not adding it to nix 6. run `cd ~/repos`
5. run macOS installer from https://determinate.systems/posts/graphical-nix-installer 7. run `git clone git@github.com/genebean/dots`
6. run `nix run nix-darwin -- check --flake ~/repos/dots` 8. create keys for [SOPS](https://georgheiler.com/2023/12/01/securing-secrets-with-mozilla-sops-and-age-a-powerful-combo/) via `mkdir -p ~/Library/Application\ Support/sops/age && nix run nixpkgs#ssh-to-age -- -private-key -i ~/.ssh/id_ed25519 > ~/Library/Application\ Support/sops/age/keys.txt && nix run nixpkgs#ssh-to-age -- -i ~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub >~/Library/Application\ Support/sops/age/pub-keys.txt`

10. Run `nix run nix-darwin -- switch --flake ~/repos/dots` 2. add creation rule
1. first (or several) run(s) through homebrew may well fail due to previously installed casks in `/Applications`. You may have to run brew with `--force` to fix this 3. add to common rule
2. you may have to run brew multiple times to fix things 11. run `mkdir modules/home-manager/hosts/$(hostname -s)`

```
- `local_private_env` containing anything you want exported as env vars or local aliases that you want to keep private
- `tailscale_key`
14. create `modules/home-manager/hosts/darwin/$(hostname -s)/<username>.nix` based on needs for this machine
15. run `mkdir modules/hosts/darwin/$(hostname -s)`
16. create `modules/hosts/darwin/$(hostname -s)/default.nix` based on need for this machine
17. add entry to `flake.nix`
18. if not a fresh install of macOS,
- run `brew leaves` and look for things installed from taps you don't want any more
- uninstall the program and the tap if not adding it to nix
19. run `git add .`
20. run `git status` - it should look something like this:
```bash
gene.liverman@mightymac dots % git status
On branch main
Your branch is up to date with 'origin/main'.
Now that that is done, setup Atuin: Changes to be committed:
(use "git restore --staged <file>..." to unstage)
modified: .sops.yaml
modified: flake.nix
new file: modules/home-manager/hosts/mightymac/gene.liverman.nix
new file: modules/home-manager/hosts/mightymac/secrets.yaml
new file: modules/hosts/darwin/mightymac/default.nix
```
21. run `sudo mv /etc/nix/nix.conf{,.before-nix-darwin}`
22. run `sudo mv /etc/zshenv{,.before-nix-darwin}`
23. run `nix run --extra-experimental-features 'nix-command flakes repl-flake' nix-darwin -- check --flake ~/repos/dots`
24. Run `nix run --extra-experimental-features 'nix-command flakes repl-flake' nix-darwin -- switch --flake ~/repos/dots`
- if prompted, run `sudo mv /etc/shells{,.before-nix-darwin}`
- if prompted, run `sudo mv /etc/zshenv{,.before-nix-darwin}`
- if prompted, you may also have to move or remove `~/.zshrc`
- on the first (or several) run(s) homebrew may well fail due to previously installed casks or programs in `/Applications`. You may have to run `brew install --force <package name>` to fix this
- you may have to run brew multiple times to fix things
25. in Settings > Privacy & Security > App Management you will need to allow iTerm
26. After the nix command finally works, open a new iTerm window and it should have all the nixified settings in it.
27. Go into iTerm2's preferences and use the Hack Nerd Mono font so that the prompt and other things look right. You will likely also want to adjust the size of the font.
```bash ### Extras steps not done by Nix and/or Homebrew and/or mas
atuin import auto
read -s ak #### Firefox profile switcher
read -s ap
atuin login --key $ak --password $ap --username gene You will need to link `firefox-profile-switcher-connector` for it to work. The easiest way to do this is to run `brew reinstall firefox-profile-switcher-connector` and follow the directions printed in the terminal.
```
#### Setup sudo via Touch ID
1. run `sudo cp /etc/pam.d/sudo_local{.template,}` - this will generate a popup asking permission
2. run `sudo nvim /etc/pam.d/sudo_local` and uncomment line as directed by top comments
3. save via `!w` which will generate a popup asking permission
#### Atuin
Nix installs and configures Atuin, but you still need to log into the server:
1. run `atuin import auto` to import the shell history from before Atuin was installed and running
2. run `read -s akey` and enter the encryption key
3. run `read -s apass` and enter the user password
4. run `atuin login --key=$akey --password=$apass --username=gene`
