Install dzgui on nix-based systems
# Installation
## Using flake profiles (manual updates)
```
# install
nix profile install github:lelgenio/dzgui-nix
# update
nix profile upgrade '.*dzgui.*'
```
## As a flake input (auto updates)
Flake users are expected to have a `flake.nix` file and a `configuration.nix`.
Note that this is just a suggestion on how to to it, you may have different configuration structure.
1 - Add `dzgui` as a flake input:
```nix
# flake.nix
{
inputs.dzgui = {
# url of this repository, may change in the future
url = "github:lelgenio/dzgui-nix";
# save storage by not having duplicates of packages
inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs";
};
# outputs...
}
```
2 - Pass `inputs` to your to you system config
```nix
# flake.nix
{
outputs = inputs@{pkgs, ...}: {
nixosConfigurations.your-hostname-here = lib.nixosSystem {
specialArgs = { inherit inputs; };
# modules...
};
};
}
```
3 - Add dzgui as a package in your system:
```nix
# configuration.nix
# this is the file generate by `nixos-generate-config`
{ inputs, pkgs, ... }: {
environment.systemPackages = [
inputs.dzgui.packages.${pkgs.system}.dzgui
];
}
```
4 - Rebuild your system
```sh
nixos-rebuild --switch --flake .#your-hostname-here
```
Now dzgui will auto update together with your system.
## On non flake systems
Good luck.
