Guix is a great system, but it always takes a lot of guix home -L <directory> reconfigure <config>. This is a template repository that allows you to set up your configurations into a simple project.
First you need to set up config.scm, it is easy, if you know how to set up Guix. You can have as many users and systems as you want. You don’t even need to set up them in the Makefile!
If you want to set up your configuration inside modules, simply put them in the root directory of this repository, everything will work automatically, as Magi adds root directory into GUILE_LOAD_PATH.
To make your guix home:
make <username>-<hostname>-home-build
make <username>-<hostname>-home-reconfigureTo make your guix system:
make <hostname>-system-build
make <hostname>-system-reconfigureThe Makefile and basic ideas are taken from rde. Modifications are made by me. I mainly simplified it, rde uses a system of so-called features. It is a great project, however it is highly opinionated. Magi is using the skeleton of rde, some of it’s main ideas, but it’s much more bare bones.
My code modifications are public domain, but keep in mind that rde is under GPLv3.
