@aral @scott @tommorris Probably took about 10 to 15 seconds, mainly because apt was being slow apt. Other distros are supported though, there's a comprehensive list on the nixos-infect page. Plus the fact that you can add a cloud init file to automate the nixos-infect procedure, is even nicer.

@scott @aral @tommorris I was gonna mention Hetzner actually. I used the nixos-infect method, just seemed easier than working out how to SSH into the iso. Added my public key to the root user, ran the script, and done.

@aral @tommorris security.acme.acceptTerms = true;
security.acme.defaults.email = "email goes here";
services.nginx = {
enable = true;
virtualHosts = {
"destructatron.net" = {
forceSSL = true;
enableACME = true;
locations."/" = {
root = "/sites/main";
};
};
"code.destructatron.net" = {
forceSSL = true;
enableACME = true;
locations."/" = {
root = "/sites/code";
};
};
};
};
You can do certs via certbot, but the module is experimental and acme is the recommended option. We have 2 virtual hosts defined here, my main site and the code subdomain. The location is set to /, so where browsers go for index.html. The root is the absolute path to where the site's files are. The braces define blocks. If we didn't have these, we'd be doing services.nginx.virtualHosts.domain.locations.root for example, which is kind of annoying to keep writing out.

@aral @tommorris I use Nix as a server, and deploying web servers is actually very easy and so is automatic SSL cert generation with lets encrypt. A few lines in configuration.nix, and it just, works. Virtual hosts, reverse proxies, PHP, and all that aren't too hard to configure. I can paste in the nginx block from my config if you'd like to take a look.

@fedora @aral Sounds good! While we're on the subject of accessibility, the initial setup after fedora workstation gets installed needs a look. The wi-fi networks list is totally unusable with Orca and actually stops me from going any further, which forces me to use the mate compiz iso, install it, install the workstation group, and then remove mate.

@aral I've been wanting to try it, but the lack of Orca in the installer is a big issue for me, either that or the installer won't let the key combination go through, it certainly doesn't let you use alt f2 to run a command. I would bootstrap it from a Fedora iso, but I can't find an up to date guide or anything on the official fedora docs telling you how this works.
