* What I want
14
+
- Remove flake-parts dependency
15
+
** Additonal ideas to implement
16
+
- Go flake inputless.
17
+
Get everything from nvfetcher. Yes, even nixpkgs. I don't have a reason to, other than that I hate how flake inputs work. not having a good way to import modules. Also need to find a way to make a nvf config.
18
+
- Switch to Adios
19
+
For the fun of it. I think I can use adios with Flakes. Need to check. There is no practical reason, other than it will be fun and Uniq.
20
+
* How
21
+
** My current setup
22
+
~ Utilises generic module class to set options for every flake parts module, including the wrappers.
23
+
~ nixosConfiguration function to combine all the modules into a host
24
+
~ If I don't import a module into host, it doesn't exist. As in doesn't apply changes
25
+
26
+
** How Can I reapply this setup on non Flake-Parts config
27
+
~ Generic modules, are just normal modules because normal modules don't type check. So theoretically I can import the normal option modules under any scope.
28
+
~ I can just use the default flake outputs with a let in
29
+
~ I think options will work just fine. But I need to take out all the boilerplate from it. make it as simple as `mkIfModule` at the top of the config or something.

31
+
** Materials
32
+
*** Classes without flake-parts
33
+
from @boomshroom on nixos unofficial discord, this way whichever module loads the config will determine under what class it will load.
34
+
@code nix
35
+
{ _class, ...}:
36
+
{
37
+
nixos = { /* nixos config */ };
38
+
homeManager = { /* home-manager config */ };
39
+
nixOnDroid = { /* droid config */ };
40
+
darwin = { /* macos config */ };
41
+
nixbsd = { /* bsd config */ };
42
+
}.${_class}
43
+
@end

+
45
+
*** Configs to steal
46
+
- {https://github.com/llakala/nixos}[llakala] - adios, wrappers, uses base values and specialArgs
47
+
- {https://github.com/hercules-ci/flake-parts/blob/main/extras/modules.nix}[Flake-parts] - This file in particular defines modules and classes in `flake.modules`. So theoretically I can just adopt this into my config without fucking with flake-parts
