@elisaado:matrix.orgelisaadohmm firewalld looks interesting for declerative networking22:05:31
@elisaado:matrix.orgelisaadoanyone using it over nftables?22:05:37
@k900:0upti.meK900Not worth the effort if you want declarative22:09:10

@elisaado:matrix.orgelisaadobut nftable syntax is kinda foreign to nixos right?00:01:39
@elisaado:matrix.orgelisaadoyou just put nftables strings in your nixos config00:01:46
@antifuchs:asf.computerantifuchsif you want to write fw rules in nix syntax, I can recommend https://github.com/thequux/nix-zone-firewall01:43:51

@elisaado:matrix.orgelisaadooh cute10:23:23
@leona:leona.isleonabut also actually nftables syntax is quite easy to understand and use (in comparsion to iptables at least) and for the most common use cases, there are abstractions in NixOS. So unsure if an abstraction in Nixpkgs would actually help10:24:40
@magic_rb:matrix.redalder.orgmagic_rbOr if youre insane you can use https://github.com/chayleaf/notnft10:28:00
@antifuchs:asf.computerantifuchsI tend to go in circles between "this configuration language sucks, write it in nixlang" / "this evals really slow (and the nixlang repr isn't good), write it in configuration language"14:41:28
@nico:c3d2.deNicoThings like nftables can get merged from multiple files quiet well, so I think this is less of an problem. frr for example is much worse and you basicly are only allowed to have one file per router17:54:31
