Ben's Guix Configuration

This is my entire system. Packages and configuration are managed in a purely functional manner.

Installation

This is a bit of an involved process; a convenient shell script should streamline this process.

Create initial installation of GUIX using System Crafter's tutorial
- Stop before the "Saving your configuration" section
Log into the new installation, and clone this repository
Copy a system definition in ./systems that you want to base your new system off of into ./systems/$SYSTEM_NAME.scm (new definition), and open /etc/config.scm (old definition)
- Doing this with a split neovim instance is helpful
- Copy UUIDs within the file-systems value from the old definition to the new definition
- Copy the host-name value from the old definition to the new definition
- Copy the users value from the old definition to the new definition
Copy the channels definition used for installation into your home with

mkdir -p ~/.config/guix; cp /etc/channels.scm ~/.config/guix

Remove pins on channels by deleting all lines in ~/.config/guix/channels.scm containing (commit ...)
Update system with

guix pull

Ensure you follow the subsequent instructions describing how to set GUIX_PROFILE and source the profile, and then run

guix hash

sudo guix system reconfigure ./system/$SYSTEM_NAME.scm; guix home reconfigure ./home/home.scm

guix package --export-manifest > manifest.scm

guix package -m manifest.scm
