## Testing your new configuration



To test your configuration simply run the following command



```

nix run .

```



If you have nix installed, you can directly run my config from anywhere



You can try running mine with:



```shell

nix run 'github:elythh/nixvim'

```



## Installing into NixOS configuration



This `nixvim` flake will output a derivation that you can easily include

in either `home.packages` for `home-manager`, or

`environment.systemPackages` for `NixOS`. Or whatever happens with darwin?



You can add my `nixvim` configuration as an input to your `NixOS` configuration like:



```nix

{

 inputs = {

    nixvim.url = "github:elythh/nixvim";

 };

}

```



### Direct installation



With the input added you can reference it directly.



```nix

{ inputs, system, ... }:

{

  # NixOS

  environment.systemPackages = [ inputs.nixvim.packages.${pkgs.system}.default ];

  # home-manager

  home.packages = [ inputs.nixvim.packages.${pkgs.system}.default ];

}

```



The binary built by `nixvim` is already named as `nvim` so you can call it just

like you normally would.



### Installing as an overlay



Another method is to overlay your custom build over `neovim` from `nixpkgs`.



This method is less straight-forward but allows you to install `neovim` like

you normally would. With this method you would just install `neovim` in your

configuration (`home.packges = with pkgs; [ neovim ]`), but you replace

`neovim` in `pkgs` with your derivation from `nixvim`.



```nix

{

  pkgs = import inputs.nixpkgs {

    overlays = [

      (final: prev: {

        neovim = inputs.nixvim.packages.${pkgs.system}.default;

      })

    ];

  }

}

```



### Bonus lazy method



You can just straight up alias something like `nix run

'github:elythh/nixvim'` to `nvim`.



### Bonus extend method



If you want to extend this config is your own NixOS config, you can do so using `nixvimExtend`. See [here](https://nix-community.github.io/nixvim/modules/standalone.html) for more info.



Example for overwritting the theme



```nix

{

  inputs,

  lib,

  ...

}: let

  nixvim' = inputs.nixvim.packages."x86_64-linux".default;

  nvim = nixvim'.nixvimExtend {

    config.theme = lib.mkForce "jellybeans";

  };

in {

  home.packages = [

    nvim

  ];

}

```
