Installation

To use this flake, add it to your flake.nix file:

{
  inputs.nut.url = "github:capslock/nut";
  outputs = { self, nixpkgs, nut }: {
    nixosConfigurations.yourhostname = nixpkgs.lib.nixosSystem {
      modules = [
        ({
          config,
          pkgs,
          ...
        }: {nixpkgs.overlays = [nut.overlays.default];})
        ./configuration.nix
        nut.nixosModules.default
      ];
    };
  };
}

Usage

Now you can configure NUT in your NixOS configuration.nix, e.g.:

TODO: Explain/make this example better.

{
  services.nut = {
    enable = true;
    ups."Eaton5S" = {
      driver = "usbhid-ups";
      port = "auto";
      description = "Eaton 5S";
    };
    upsdConfFile = toString (pkgs.writeText "upsd.conf" "");
    upsdUsersFile = config.sops.templates."upsd.users".path;
    upsmonConfFile = config.sops.templates."upsmon.conf".path;
  };
}
