# man, it's a hot one
|
|
`smooooth` is a service to "hot reload" flake-based nixos configurations.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## like seven inches from a midday sun
|
|
`smooooth` will detect changes to the specified flake, wait for blockers to resolve,
|
|
then trigger build + activation of the new config.
|
|
|
|
blockers can be specified as any executable name. they will prevent reloads
|
|
until they disappear or change their working directory. \
|
|
this way, `smooooth` can wait for your current editor/shell/you-name-it session
|
|
to conclude before rebuilding anything.
|
|
|
|
the only strict requirement is that said executable handles its cwd properly,
|
|
so it can be read from the procfs. \
|
|
this may conflict with behaviour of some editors (ie. vscode), particularly if
|
|
they are started via a .desktop shortcut.
|
|
|
|
#### a brief disclaimer
|
|
`smooooth` is in an early but entirely functional state.
|
|
|
|
it may be subject to changes, ~full rewrites,~ or unending neglect.
|
|
|
|
enjoy !

## i hear you whispering the words
|
|
### to melt everyone, but you stay so cold
|
|
|
|
simply add `smooooth.url = git+https://git.atagen.co/atagen/smooooth.git` to your
|
|
flake inputs, and the reciprocal `{ smooooth }` entry to your output function.
|
|
|
|
now you can import `smooooth.nixosModules.smooooth` in your config modules, and
|
|
utilise the [supplied module options](https://atagen.co/docs/smooooth) to get started !
