nix-options-search

A simple command-line tool to look up options for configuring nix-darwin, nixOS, and home-manager quickly, with fuzzy finding.

Installation

Nix flakes

Run nox using nix with flakes enabled with nix run github:madsbv/nix-options-search.

To add nox to a nixOS, nix-darwin or home-manager configuration using flakes, add this repository as a flake input and add inputs.nox.packages.${system}.default to your package list. For example, for a nixOS system with hostname ${hostname} and system type ${system} (one of x86_64-linux, aarch64-linux, x86_64-darwin, aarch64-darwin):

inputs = {
    nixpkgs.url = "github:nixos/nixpkgs/nixos-unstable";
    nox = {
        url = "github:madsbv/nix-options-search";
        inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs";
    };
};
outputs = inputs: {
    nixosConfigurations.${hostname} = nixpkgs.lib.nixosSystem {
        system = ${system}
        modules = [{ 
                environment.systemPackages = [ inputs.nox.packages.${system}.default ];
        }];
    };
};
