jhillyerd | I think it makes sense to move the tutorial and reference to the docs site. It's good to have at least an overview of features, doc links and community info in the readme. Typically I'd also say how to "build" for developers, but that seems less relevant for agenix. | 17:39:19 |
jhillyerd | READMEs should not be long enough to require a table of contents in my opinion. | 17:40:04 |
jhillyerd | On the docs site, I think I'd combine intro, problem & solution, and perhaps also features into one page. | 17:41:33 |

jayhenks | Is agenix being actively maintained? | 21:57:54 |
cole-h | Yes; we even recently added another maintainer, so the bus factor is 3 people :) | 21:58:24 |
jayhenks | Yeah because I saw it was only updated 5 days ago on github | 21:59:07 |
jayhenks | * Yeah because I saw it was only updated 5 days ago on github (commit) | 21:59:52 |

Wanja Hentze | From personal experience I can attest that the maintainers respond quickly and are open to contributions :) | 10:10:36 |
Ilan Joselevich (Kranzes) | In reply to @jayhenks:matrix.org Yeah because I saw it was only updated 5 days ago on github (commit) Last commit is not a measure of maintenance | 14:22:44 |
Wanja Hentze | also, 5 days ago is really recent 🤔 I consider anything within a few months "recent changes" | 14:54:23 |
jayhenks | Does agenix offer support for home manager? | 15:40:55 |
cole-h | No(t yet), see https://github.com/ryantm/agenix/issues/50 and https://github.com/ryantm/agenix/pull/109. | 15:41:38 |
ryantm | Supporting home manager confuses me. | 15:43:14 |
ryantm | Everyone keeps asking for it but it seems like a worthless thing. | 15:43:38 |
ryantm | If you are using it with NixOS, you can already use the agenix module at the NixOS level. If you are using it at the user level, it doesn't provide any security. | 15:46:38 |
jayhenks | What would a home manager module mean? That I can use secrets inside home manager? Is that not possible already? | 15:49:16 |
jayhenks | Maybe I do not get something here | 15:49:28 |
ryantm | The only use case I understand is someone wants to publish their home manager config and doesn't want to share the secrets. Maybe that's enough to justify supporting it. I don't want to give people a false sense of security though... | 16:00:19 |
Dandellion | In reply to @ryantm:matrix.org If you are using it with NixOS, you can already use the agenix module at the NixOS level. If you are using it at the user level, it doesn't provide any security. why wouldnt it provide any security? | 16:02:02 |
ryantm | The user's clear text, encrypted secrets, and private key would all be in the same home directory. | 16:03:47 |
Dandellion | owned by the user and not in the nix store though | 16:04:40 |
ryantm | Yeah good point! I think I get it now. | 16:04:58 |
jayhenks | In reply to @dandellion:dodsorf.as owned by the user and not in the nix store though But why would you want that | 16:34:36 |
jayhenks | I do Not really get it | 16:34:44 |
Dandellion | For the same reasons as you want it for the system | 16:44:52 |
Dandellion | I don't understand what's different | 16:45:06 |
