Welcome to my combined nixos configuration for my personal desktop and proxmox lxc containers for various services.

I currently manage two machines

• thegram: a personal laptop
• proxmox: a proxmox host that hosts several NixOS LXC containers

• Disko managed ZFS Filesystem with automatic snapshots and replication
• NTS encrypted time settings
• Encrypted DNS
• Home-manager
• Hyprland Desktop

• setup new password for user and root
• ssh key
• setup rclone + restic
• sops-nix backup config/switch out ssh key
• setup tailscale
• maybe more

The current services running in production are

• Uptime
• Immich
• Adguard
• Nextcloud
• Jellyfin - Media Playback
• Glance - homepage
• Mealie - Recipe Manager
• Ntfy.sh - Notification Server
• Changedetection.io - Website Change Detection
• Paperless-ngx - document archiver and manager
• SearXNG - self-hosted meta search engine

Planned Additions

• NewsBlur - RSS feed reader
• GitLab - Git Hosting Platform (for backups)
• A
• Graphana + InfluxDB

Begin by building a lxc container for proxmox by running the following command:

nix run github:nix-community/nixos-generators -- --flake .#<service name> --cores 4 -f proxmox-lxc

Then, start up the proxmox lxc container with default settings except with the desired hostname and dhcp ip address.

After starting the lxc container, log into tailscale with the following command:

sudo tailscale login

In order to update a server remotely, run the following command:

make <hostname>

or for all machines

make all-server -i
