# Additional Setup The following documents some NixOS setup that wasn't automated. ## Encryption Keys ### Github SSH Keys for SSH aren't automatically placed with chezmoi `secret` since it complicated things to much. The key for github SSH must be transferred manually from Bitwarden or `/run/secrets/keys/github_personal` to `~/.ssh/keys/github_personal`. ### Sops-nix Encrypted keys for various aspects of the config are stored in `./secrets/secrets.yaml` to the required key for decryption must be placed at `~/.config/sops/age/keys.txt`. ## Wireguard Client Wireguard is nice for a home vpn. NixOS setus up all of the configurations for peers automatically on `torus`. Public keys, private keys, and config files are generated and stored in `~/.wireguard`. Some machines like `kestrel` setup the vpn automatically within `configuration.nix`. However, others require a small amount of manual setup. Cell phones like `adjudicator` are added with a generated QR code: ```bash qrencode -t ansiutf8 < ``` Computers using NetworkManager like `bulwark` need to have conf file imported: ```bash nmcli connection import type wireguard file ``` ## Mount network drives I find fstab messing about more trobule than it is worth. Credentials need to be manually created in `~/.smb`. To mount network drives when needed with the following command: ```bash linux-mount- ``` ## Git-annex I use [git-annex](https://git-annex.branchable.com/walkthrough/) to sync some of the large files (mostly roms) that I don't want to have fill copies on each machine. Current git-annex stores I have are: - `roms` - `~/mnt/engi/media/roms` from `torus`. ## Cadquery and Simplify3d Cadquery and Simplify3d don't play nice with non-FHS filesystems (and Simplify3d is proprietary). I run these programs within distrobox. Some notes about using distrobox for these programs. If arch-box isn't created, create it and apply chezmoi dot files to secondary home directory: ```bash distrobox create --image archlinux --name arch-box --home ~/box/arch chezmoi apply -D ~/home/arch ``` Then enter the box and run script to install cadquery and dependencies for Simplify3d: ```bash distrobox enter arch-box cd && ./bin/arch-install-cad ``` As the script suggest then download and install Simplify3d from the script on the [website](https://www.simplify3d.com/). The applications can be run within the box with the following commands: ```bash # Simplify3d /opt/Simplify3D-5.1.2/LaunchScript.sh # CQ-editor cd ~/cq-editor && ./run.sh ``` ## Chromium The vast majority of Chromium is setup with [browser.nix](./modules/desktop/browser.nix) including installing plugins and various settings. However, setup for [vimium](https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/vimium/dbepggeogbaibhgnhhndojpepiihcmeb) and [New Tab Redirect](https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/new-tab-redirect/icpgjfneehieebagbmdbhnlpiopdcmna) could not be fully automated. - Upon launch New Tab Redirect should prompt to set the new tab page. Set to `http://localhost:8080`. - Vimium config is saved in chezmoi. Open the vimium [plugin page](chrome-extension://dbepggeogbaibhgnhhndojpepiihcmeb/pages/options.html) and restore config from `~/.config/vimium-options.json`. ## Steam Some games/emulators (in my case Ares) don't fullscreen nicely in window managers. In that case add something alongs the lines of the following launch command to run them within gamescope. ```bash gamescope -w 2560 -h 1440 -f %command% ```
