Restructure config

[different-name]

• Use modules for enabling / disabling config elements, instead of imports
• Only import from top to bottom
• Introduce profiles for use cases (currently just server / desktop) instead of common/
  • This would allow for more than 2 use cases
  • The actual config files could be organised into only the subcategories instead, but with desktop/programs being graphical, or similar
  • This also means config files would not have to physically move when being switch between profiles, only the profile would be edited

Though a lot of files just change one option, and so it would be pretty pointless to create a wrapper option for that, in which case it would make more sense to just apply the option in the profile - which just means adding them all into one file, at least for the global file

Currently, this issue is solved by using the default files and grouping folders together to be bulk imported, meaning that only items in the extra folder are imported by themselves

I can't think of a good solution for this

Quick note: a option based system would allow for enabling optional system modules if a optional home manager module is enabled, for example enabling the goxlr home manager config would enable the system goxlr config

I'm also growing less fond of how many folders there are in the config, I think consolidating global, desktop & extra categories would be a good thing

Reopening this, as I should come up with some kind of solution to cleanly implement an option based system

Perhaps the single line configuration files could just replace the import, i don't think it matters if they are duplicated across profiles in this case

https://github.com/different-name/nix-files/commit/f3518069b72cb451b76c77013cb81aa510c35850 refactors the system config to use modules, home is yet to be done

The only backward imports are from system/hosts/default.nix to system/default.nix, which should be fixed, probably by moving the contents of system/hosts/default.nix inside flake.nix. The other backward imports are for age secret files, which is fine :star:

There's quite a big more backward imports, going up each directory from home/users/hosts/.nix not sure how i'd change it, or if i should

TODO:

• Split up persistence config
• Figure out what to do with backward imports
• Update readme with new structure

Import of home manager config should be done in user file and could use hostname as part of path so that it does not need to be hard coded

Catppuccin should be in the global profile in home, but doesnt really fit into any of the current folders outside of graphical/meta

Catppuccin should be in the global profile in home, but doesnt really fit into any of the current folders outside of graphical/meta

moving this into the root of the common folder, alongside persistence.nix

Completed everything I wanted to for now, I am keeping the home config backward imports leading up from the host files -> user files and across to the common modules, as this structure makes the most sense to me
