 emily | and also support uninstalls and other things like that. | 21:53:55 |
| emily | the shell script installer is not very good. | 21:54:00 |
 tavinator | okay. i'm gonna try to get one of my people to test drive the Lix installer. someone else test drove the DetSys one and it failed right out of the gate. | 21:54:43 |
 kdn | is there any way to easily deploy to MacOS from NixOS x86 machine? | 22:04:49 |
 niklaskorz | I think clan recently added Darwin support | 22:10:32 |
| niklaskorz | https://clan.lol/blog/macos/ | 22:10:58 |
| kdn | could you TLDR what is clan? | 22:11:26 |
| niklaskorz | NixOS cluster manager basically | 22:12:16 |
| kdn | something like https://github.com/zhaofengli/colmena ? | 22:12:38 |
| kdn | * something like https://github.com/zhaofengli/colmena or nixops? | 22:12:47 |
| kdn | or more like kubernetes for nixos? | 22:14:35 |
| niklaskorz | Yes to both questions | 22:14:48 |
| kdn | this got me curious: I was planning to build out k3s cluster on top of NixOS (got the hardware, but aborted the Talos k8s deployment there due to some hiccups ~year ago) | 22:16:57 |
| kdn | but if I can have ~8 heterogenous machines managed from Nix that sounds great to get started | 22:17:38 |
| kdn | * but if I can have ~8 heterogenous machines managed from Nix that sounds great to get started before (if at all) I build out the k8s | 22:17:56 |
| niklaskorz | I think there was a talk about it at Nixcon 2024, if you prefer a video | 22:18:18 |
| niklaskorz | But otherwise the docs seem good | 22:18:27 |
| niklaskorz | Haven't used it personally but I'm following it with keen interest for now | 22:18:47 |
| kdn | "inventory" and "vars" looks Ansible-inspired ;D | 22:19:04 |
| kdn | FYI: will continue the topic on the #users:nixos.org | 22:20:13 |
 samasaur | how does a package find a private framework? those aren't included by default in the SDK, are they? | 23:30:25 |
 Randy Eckenrode | There’s apple-sdk.privateFrameworksHook, but it won’t add the missing headers. | 23:33:25 |

| cujanovic.filip | Hey everyone.
I just moved to nix from brew and I saw that you can also manage aerospace and sketchybar from nix since this will also resolve the PATH issue that I have, since I'm calling sketchybar and other binaries from aerospace. Now I want to manage sketchybar too, but I use the Lua API for sketchybar and I want to also copy the sketchybar dir from the nix-darwin directory. My current setup is that I have nix-darwin dir and inside of it I have the flake.nix and sketchybar dir and I want that dir to copy. How can I do that? | 17:52:51 |
