First, grant the Terminal.app full disk access!!
Run the following command
xcode-select --install
Install Rosetta with the following command
softwareupdate --install-rosettaRun the following command for the Determinate Installer
curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf -L https://install.determinate.systems/nix | sh -s -- install macosOr this for the original one
sh <(curl -L https://nixos.org/nix/install)After installation, in a new shell, run
. /nix/var/nix/profiles/default/etc/profile.d/nix-daemon.shUse git to download the config
In a new terminal session run the following command
nix-shell -p git --run "git clone https://github.com/ohtohalla/nix.git ~/.config/nix"nix run nix-darwin --extra-experimental-features "nix-command flakes" -- switch --flake ~/.config/nix#home-macbook-proIf installing a work system, use the command
nix run nix-darwin --extra-experimental-features "nix-command flakes" -- switch --flake ~/.config/nix#work-macbook-proFor some reason the Determinate Installer does not always create the org.nixos.darwin-store.plist. In such a case, create said file in the path /Library/LaunchDaemons/. The file contents should be:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
