Configuration

Config lives in ~/.config/nixdash/config.toml. Run nixdash init to set it up, or edit the file directly.

Config file

toml

# ~/.config/nixdash/config.toml

packages_file = "/path/to/your/packages.nix"
apply_command = "home-manager switch --flake ."
flake_file = "/path/to/your/flake.nix"
auto_apply = false
search_index_path = "~/.cache/nixdash/nix-search-tv"

Options

Key	Description
`packages_file`	Path to the Nix file that lists your packages
`apply_command`	Command to rebuild after changes (e.g. `home-manager switch --flake .` or `sudo nixos-rebuild switch`)
`flake_file`	Path to your `flake.nix`
`auto_apply`	Auto-run apply command after install/remove
`search_index_path`	Where nix-search-tv stores its index

Supported setups

nixdash is config-agnostic. Anything that uses a Nix file for packages and a command to apply:

Home Manager - standalone or as a NixOS module
NixOS - system-level configuration
Any flake that manages packages
