Using with Nix

Using Flakes

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/themackabu/ghost.git
   cd ghost

2. Build the ghost package using Flakes:

   nix build .#ghost

   This will build the ghost package and place the result in the ./result directory.

3. Run the ghost binary:

   ./result/bin/ghost

Using Nix Configuration

To include the ghost package in your NixOS configuration, you can add it to your configuration.nix file.

1. Add the Flake input to your configuration.nix:

   {
     inputs = {
       nixpkgs.url = "github:NixOS/nixpkgs/nixos-unstable";
       flake-utils.url = "github:numtide/flake-utils";
       ghost.url = "path:./path/to/your/ghost/repo";
     };
   
     outputs = { self, nixpkgs, flake-utils, ghost }: {
       nixosConfigurations = {
         hostname = nixpkgs.lib.nixosSystem {
           system = "x86_64-linux";
           modules = [
             ./hardware-configuration.nix
             {
               imports = [ ghost.nixosModules.default ];
   
               environment.systemPackages = with pkgs; [
                 ghost.packages.x86_64-linux.ghost
               ];
             }
           ];
         };
       };
     };
   }

2. Rebuild your NixOS system:

   sudo nixos-rebuild switch --flake .#hostname

Using Nix Profile with GitHub

1. Install the ghost package into your profile directly from GitHub:

   nix profile install github:themackabu/ghost#ghost

2. Run the ghost binary:

   ghost
