Nix runs the 🌍🌎🌏

Here you have my nix config files.

Nothing too fancy.

Love Blueprint

mvim

mvim is my own bespoke neovim config based on LazyVim and nix.

nix run

Try it yourself...

nix run github:multivac61/nixos-config#mvim

Automatic update of flake.lock and lazy.nvim

Relevant files are found under

• ./home/nvim/ -- my lua files
• ./packages/mvim.nix -- standalone package
• ./modules/home/nvim.nix -- home-manager module

Then you can set up the GitHub Action stuff like so... ./.github/workflows/update-flake-lock.yml and ./.github/workflows/update-lazy-plugins.yaml use the create-github-app-token action. In order to use it in your project you need to register a new GitHub app. In order to use this action, you need to:

1. Register new GitHub App. When creating the app you need to enable read and write access for "Contents" and "Pull Requests" permissions.
2. Next you must install the app to make it available to your repo .
3. Store the App's ID in your repository environment variables as CI_APP_ID.
4. Store the App's private key in your repository secrets as CI_PRIVATE_KEY.
5. Create a new auto-merge label in the GitHub UI.
6. Enable auto-merge in your GitHub repo settings.
7. Set up branch protection:

• Go to repository Settings
• Click "Branches" in the left sidebar
• Click "Add branch protection rule"
• For "Branch name pattern" enter: main
• Check "Require status checks to pass before merging"
• In the search box, type "Auto Merge Dependency Updates"
• Also search for and add your ci workflow, e.g., building all systems using determinate-ci or similar

Now you can upload the code and go to town with a sparking new auto-updating neovim config!

Note

Lots of the nix and CICD code is adopted from the venerable Mic92
