 Zhaofeng Li | I don't think this idea scales well for the common use case of deploying to many nodes at once. You can use mDNS .local hostnames or something like tailscale | 02:56:14 |

 Alexander | I do not suggest to replace a configuration option with a cli one. But to add a possibility to override deployment.targetHost. TBH I do not understand how mDNS or Tailscale could help me. I know an IP address of a device but I do not want to modify my configuration every time | 15:58:34 |
| Alexander | For example with ansible it is possible to override inventory with a cli option. Colmena also has a deployment.buildOnTarget configuration and a --build-on-target cli option which overrides it | 16:01:59 |
| Alexander | I did not explain that these devices do not stay in my local network. I just setup them and they should be installed in another place | 16:04:49 |
 f0x | you could write a simple bash wrapper script that takes an ip argument, sed's it into a template hive.nix and runs colmena? | 16:28:31 |
| Alexander | Everything is possible with sed))) | 16:55:22 |

 neobrain | Hi! I've moved over to NixOS via Colmena 2 days ago, quite a smooth experience :)
There's one thing I just noticed - I've got almost 200 profiles in /nix/var/nix/profiles/ that don't show up when running nix profile list. I'm guessing these were created by Colmena. Is there any recommended mechanism for cleaning up old profiles, as nix profile wipe-history would? | 16:51:40 |
