# USDA Dashboard System Configuration
External NixOS module configuration for the usda-dash LXC container.
## Overview
This repository contains the system configuration for the USDA Dashboard, managed as an external module for the nixos-systems fleet.
## Usage
### From nixos-systems inventory.nix
Replace the inline configuration with this external module:
```nix
nix-lxc = {
devices = {
"usda-dash" = builtins.fetchGit {
url = "https://github.com/UGA-Innovation-Factory/usda-dash-config";
rev = "abc123..."; # Commit hash for reproducibility
};
};
overrides = {
ugaif.host.useHostPrefix = false;
extraUsers = [ "sv22900" "hdh20267" ]; # Users remain in inventory
};
};
```
### Local Development
For testing changes locally before pushing:
```nix
nix-lxc = {
devices = {
"usda-dash" = /path/to/local/usda-dash-config;
};
};
```
## Configuration Structure
```
usda-dash-config/
├── default.nix # Main module configuration
├── README.md # This file
└── services/ # Optional: Additional service modules
```
## Module Contents
The `default.nix` module includes:
- Base system packages
- SSH configuration
- Service configurations (nginx, postgresql, etc.)
- Firewall rules
- Dashboard-specific settings
## Integration
This module:
- Receives the same flake inputs as nixos-systems (nixpkgs, home-manager, etc.)
- Can use ugaif.* options from the host type module
- Is merged with inventory.nix overrides and extraUsers
- Works with all build methods (LXC, Proxmox, ISO)
## Development Workflow
1. Make changes to `default.nix`
2. Test locally by pointing inventory.nix to local path
3. Build: `nix build .#nixosConfigurations.usda-dash.config.system.build.toplevel`
4. Commit and push changes
5. Update inventory.nix with new commit hash
## Deployment
After updating the configuration:
```bash
cd /path/to/nixos-systems
# Update the rev in inventory.nix
nix flake lock --update-input usda-dash-config # If using flake input
# Or just update the rev in the fetchGit call
./deploy usda-dash
```
