Rebase the fork branches and refresh nixpkgs, home-manager, and the approved ancillary inputs. Update kernel and release metadata, adapt removed package and Home Assistant options, and keep Determinate Nix on its tested nixpkgs revision to avoid duplicate Boost patches. Retire Sharry and its public endpoint because copyparty replaces it. Document the GitHub mirror gate and require real devshell and system builds in the upgrade validation workflow.

# Deployment documentation
|
|
|
|
> **Note:** these pages are a work in progress and were **agent-generated** from the repository.
|
|
> They may be incomplete or out of date — treat the Nix configuration as the source of truth.
|
|
|
|
This directory documents the boxes managed by this flake: their roles, network assignments,
|
|
hierarchy, and the services they run. For the mechanics of the repo itself (conventions, module
|
|
system internals for contributors, agent guidance), see [`AGENTS.md`](../AGENTS.md).
|
|
|
|
The two big sites follow the pattern:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
physical host (VM host)
|
|
└── VM (for things impractical to containerise)
|
|
└── container host VM
|
|
└── NixOS containers (one per application group)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Not every box fits this pattern, but **colony** and **home** are organised this way.
|
|
|
|
## General
|
|
|
|
- [`architecture.md`](architecture.md) — the custom module system, `my.*` namespace, multiple
|
|
nixpkgs channels, shared module inventory.
|
|
- [`networking.md`](networking.md) — network assignments, domains, site topologies, router HA,
|
|
the AS211024 L2 mesh, BGP, WireGuard, Tailscale.
|
|
- [`deployment.md`](deployment.md) — deploy-rs, devshell commands, secrets workflow, CI.
|
|
- [`nixpkgs-upgrade.md`](nixpkgs-upgrade.md) — guided procedure for the periodic upgrade of the four
|
|
nixpkgs channels and home-manager (fork rebase, stable bumps, input review).
|
|
- [`install-box.md`](install-box.md) — guided procedure for installing a new box, from the booted
|
|
installer through partitioning, the box config, `do-install` and documentation.
|
|
- [`openwrt-flash.md`](openwrt-flash.md) — guided procedure for flashing a flake-built image onto an
|
|
OpenWrt box, from the build through pre-flight, `sysupgrade` and verification.
|
|
- [`reference/dns.md`](reference/dns.md) — generated forward and reverse DNS record reference.
|
|
- [`reference/nixos-options.md`](reference/nixos-options.md) — generated per-option reference for
|
|
the custom `my.*` NixOS modules.
|
|
|
|
## Site: colony (Amsterdam)
|
|
|
|
Physical host and public-infrastructure hub — see [`sites/colony/README.md`](sites/colony/README.md).
|
|
|
|
```

|
## Site: home
|
|
|
|
Redundant routers, VM host, storage, IoT containers and the workstation — see
|
|
[`sites/home/README.md`](sites/home/README.md). The hand-configured switch fabric (jim/dave/brian)
|
|
and the Digiweb WAN path are documented in [`sites/home/switches.md`](sites/home/switches.md); the
|
|
5G modem being evaluated as a replacement for `stream`'s WAN is in
|
|
[`sites/home/wwan.md`](sites/home/wwan.md).

## Remote boxes
|
|
|
|
The edge VPSes and remote `kelder` site are indexed in [`remote/README.md`](remote/README.md).
|
|
|
|
## Mobile boxes
|
|
|
|
The laptop is indexed in [`mobile/README.md`](mobile/README.md).
|
|
|
|
## Misc
|
|
|
|
- [`misc/installer.md`](misc/installer.md) — the custom NixOS installer image.
|
|
|
|
## A note on the assignment tables
|
|
|
|
The consolidated [`Box assignments`](networking.md#box-assignments) tables in
|
|
[`networking.md`](networking.md) (one per site, between `<!-- assignments: <site> -->` markers)
|
|
are **generated from the flake** (`nixos.allAssignments`) by `nix run .#update-docs-assignments` —
|
|
CI refreshes them on push. Individual box pages link to that section rather than carrying their
|
|
own table. Only the Notes column is hand-written; don't hand-edit the other cells.
