| clara | Hi! I'm trying to evaluate the colmena hosts from a flake, but I'm running into some issues. My goal is to have a JSON with nodes & their configs. I tried to run `colmena eval -E "{ nodes, ... }: nodes --experimental-flake-eval`, but ran into issues since it's trying to serialize a function into JSON.
I ran into https://github.com/zhaofengli/colmena/issues/43 which seems to indicate what I'm looking for is not possible, but I was wondering if anyone knew of a way. | 13:58:07 |

 ixxie | Hey folks,
Does anybody have a nice example of how to organize a repo with code for both initialising new host (e.g. with nixos-anywhere) and provisioning with colmena afterwards?

I built mine with terranix and divnix/hive.
Might be slightly over engineered but I have a need for maintaining multiple environments at once. so the overengineering helps 🤣 | 20:53:40 |

The simple way is: have a "blank" nixosConfiguration in your flake that contains a simplified basic installation, run nixos-anywhere, then deploy as a specific host via colmena | 11:00:49 |
| dantefromhell | since you can point nixos-anywhere to install a specific nixosConfiguration I'm skipping the generic installer config and install the full system closure immediately | 12:02:51 |

| ixxie | I'd love to see examples of how people organize a deployment with nixos-anywhere + colmena in practice | 21:00:42 |

I'd love to see examples of how people organize a deployment with nixos-anywhere + colmena in practice sry code is still in a big rewrite, not public.
happen to answer particular questions though 👍 | 06:21:38 |
