SrvOS - NixOS profiles for servers

STATUS: stable

SrvOS is a collection of opinionated and sharable NixOS configurations.

As we learn more about NixOS in various deployments, we end up re-writing the same modules and configs. This is a way for us to speed up and share our setups.

Instead of supporting everything, our goal is to target certain verticals and make the support super smooth there.

Quick Usage

Add srvos to your flake.nix to augment your NixOS configuration. For example to deploy a GitHub Action runner on Hetzner:

{
  description = "My machines flakes";
  inputs = {
    srvos.url = "github:nix-community/srvos";
    # Use the version of nixpkgs that has been tested to work with SrvOS
    # Alternatively we also support the latest nixos release and unstable
    nixpkgs.follows = "srvos/nixpkgs";
  };
  outputs = { self, nixpkgs, srvos }: {
    nixosConfigurations.myHost = nixpkgs.lib.nixosSystem {
      system = "x86_64-linux";
      modules = [
        # This machine is a server
        srvos.nixosModules.server
        # Deployed on the AMD Hetzner hardware
        srvos.nixosModules.hardware-hetzner-amd
        # Configured with extra terminfos
        srvos.nixosModules.mixins-terminfo
        # And designed to run the GitHub Actions runners
        srvos.nixosModules.roles-github-actions-runner
        # Finally add your configuration here
        ./myHost.nix
      ];
    };
  };
}

Documentation

The Documentation website shows more general usage, how to install SrvOS, etc...

To improve the documentation, take a look at the ./docs folder. You can also run nix develop .#mkdocs -c mkdocs serve to start a preview server on http://localhost:8000.
