NixOS Compatibility

[Bakan0]

Greetings! I've enjoyed watching your YouTube videos, and I found you from NixOS' Example configurations page, but I do not see any straight-forward way to get your setup on NixOS. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Perhaps the questions for Q&A here would be:

1. Is this designed to be easily deployable into NixOS?
   2a) If so, are there instructions for NixOS somewhere?
   2b) If not, is there a difficult-but-documented way to install it?

Thank you for your hard work :D

@Bakan0 Thanks for your question. You can try this https://github.com/mylinuxforwork/dotfiles/wiki/Using-ML4W-Dotfiles-on-other-distributions

But you have to adapt the update script if needed. Would be great if you could share your results.

Ah perfect 😄 Exactly an answer to my question! I hope you have a happy and successful week, and thank you again for all you do for the community.

Should I have success, I will return and report!

a install script or detailed guide for NixOs would be greatly appreciated :D
But in the meantime I did try it on my own, and i think I am very close, but i get an error about colors:
Error parsing gradient rgb({color11.strip}): No colors?

I can't really find anything about this error online, I am very new to Hyprland, so I don't even know where to start looking.
Do you have any ideas how i could fix this? Am I missing a package or font or something?

Make sure that wallust is installed and you set a wallpaper. The 'color11' is a variable that needs to have a valid color value.

i did already have pywal (which from my understanding should do the same thing?) and i didn't change any of the configuration and figured there probably is a default wallpaper already set, but might also not work, because of the issue I was having.

Well it turns out i was missing the wallpaper folder in my home directory, which contains all the wallpaper files being shipped with ml4w. So thank you @dwilliam62 for the hint, you pointed me to the right place to look.
Everything works fine now, now i need to get into actually learning how to configure all the stuff to maybe adjust things to my tase a bit :D
