What is a proper build command for the flake ?

[ZeikoFr]

Hi,

I'm revamping all my config and I was really interested in the way you layout everything !

I've used to test and build my config with nixos-rebuild test --sudo --flake ~/.config/nixos.

I've switched to nixos-rebuild test --sudo --flake ~/.config/nixos#home-laptop for my home laptop right here https://github.com/ZeikoFr/nixos-config/tree/main/modules/home-laptop

But I get the following error :

       error: attribute 'nixosSystem' missing
       at /nix/store/0rw1ibf9x642325pxfh8sqzl6qb0iaqh-source/modules/configurations/nixos.nix:18:23:
           17|     nixosConfigurations = lib.flip lib.mapAttrs config.configurations.nixos (
           18|       name: {module}: lib.nixosSystem {modules = [module];}
             |                       ^
           19|     );
Command 'nix --extra-experimental-features 'nix-command flakes' build --print-out-paths '/home/zeiko/.config/nixos#nixosConfigurations."home-laptop".config.system.build.nixos-rebuild' --no-link' returned non-zero exit status 1.

So I think I've might have missed something here if you have any advice to give ! Thanks a lot

I'm not sure what's happening there at first glance. A possible clue is that lib.nixosSystem is a flake-only thing.

By the way, my 1-1 mentoring is on a huge sale right now, if you want us to figure this out. First 15 minutes free, as well.

Thanks for the feedback, I've achive to go past this error by doiing this inputs.nixpkgs.lib.nixosSystem but I don't undestand why it is working on your config.

I wanted to buy some mentoring from you sadly codementor refuse to allow me to sign-in with my email (protonmail). I'll gladely pay you the equivalent directly for your help.

May be this line:

infra/flake.nix

Line 20 in 9120d76

inputs.nixpkgs-lib.follows = "nixpkgs";

Sorry about that. I'm thrilled to hear that you are interested. Would you mind DMing me somewhere (my github profile provides various means of contact)?

I've sent you a Discord DM ;)
