## Usage
### NixOS/Home-manager (flakes)
It is as simple as adding a new entry to your inputs with the correct url.
```nix
# flake.nix
inputs = {
# ...
nyxpkgs.url = "github:notashelf/nyxpkgs";
# ...
};
```
After adding the input, you can consume the [exposed packages](#-packages) in your system configuration.
An example `flake.nix` would be as follows:
```nix
# flake.nix
{
inputs = {
nixpkgs.url = "github:NixOS/nixpkgs/nixos-unstable";
home-manager.url = "github:nix-community/home-manager";
nyxpkgs.url = "github:notashelf/nyxpkgs";
};
outputs = inputs @ {self, nixpkgs, ...}: {
# set up for NixOS
nixosConfigurations.<yourHostName> = nixpkgs.lib.nixosSystem {
specialArgs = {inherit inputs;};
modules = [
./configuration.nix
# ...
];
};
# or for Home Manager
homeConfigurations.<yourHostName> = inputs.home-manager.lib.homeManagerConfiguration {
extraSpecialArgs = {inherit inputs;};
pkgs = import nixpkgs {
system = "x86_64-linux";
config.allowUnfree = true;
};
modules = [
./home.nix
# ...
];
}
};
}
```
Where you can then add the relevant package to your `environment.systemPackages` or `home.packages`
```nix
{pkgs, inputs, ...}: {
# in case of home-manager, this will be home.packages
environment.systemPackages = [
inputs.nyxpkgs.packages.${pkgs.system}.<packageName> # installs a package
];
}
```
### Nix
If you are using Nix on a non-NixOS distro, you may `nix run` to try out packages, or `nix profile install` to
install them on your system profile. If using home-manager on non-NixOS, I recommend using `home.packages` instead.
```console
nix profile install github:notashelf/nyxpkgs#<package>
```
### NixOS/Home-manager (no flakes)
If you are not using flakes, the above instructions will not apply. You may obtain the source as a tarball to
consume in your system configuration as follows:
```nix
{pkgs, ...}: let
nyxpkgs = import (builtins.fetchTarball "https://github.com/notashelf/nyxpkgs/archive/main.tar.gz");
in {
# install packages
# this can also be home.packages if you are using home-manager
environment.systemPackages = [
nyxpkgs.packages.${pkgs.hostPlatform.system}.<packageName>
];
}
```
## 📦 Packages
There are several packages exposed by this flake. Each directory in `pkgs` contains a description of the package inside its README.

The repository structure is mostly borrowed from [@fufexan](https://github.com/fufexan)'s [nix-gaming](https://github.com/fufexan/nix-gaming).
[^1]: Foot has broken fullscreen transparency on 1.15, which looks **really** ugly with padding. The author is dead set on not fixing it, because it's broken on one wayland compositor that a total of 7 people use.
