home-manager

Manage a per-user environment using Nix, allowing declarative configuration of the user’s home. More information: https://github.com/nix-community/home-manager.

• Build the configuration defined in ~/.config/nixpkgs/home.nix without applying it:

home-manager build

• Build and apply (switch to) the new configuration:

home-manager switch

• Roll back to a previous configuration generation:

home-manager rollback

• List all existing configuration generations:

home-manager generations

• When using flakes, run any operation that requires nix to run (build, switch, news) by passing the path to the flake:

home-manager {{command}} --flake {{path/to/flake}}
