1 | # syncthing-set-id |
| 2 | ||
| 3 | Modify in-place a nix module that configures syncthing device ids. This file can used as a normal `include` in nixos configs. This eliminates the need to copy-paste these device IDs around. | |

5 | ### Example |
| 6 | ||
| 0c29f01e SW |
7 | desktop$ syncthing-set-id syncthing-devices.nix |
| 8 | Creating /home/user/myNixOSConfigs/syncthing-devices.nix | |
| 9 | ||
| 10 | desktop$ cat syncthing-devices.nix | |
| 11 | { | |
| 12 | "services" = { | |
| 13 | "syncthing" = { | |
| 22596d75 SW |
14 | "devices" = { |
| 15 | "desktop" = { | |
| 16 | "id" = | |
| 17 | "1234567-89ABCDE-FGHIJKL-MNOPQRS-TUVWXYZ-0123456-789ABCD-EFGHIJK"; | |
| 0c29f01e SW |
18 | }; |
| 19 | }; | |
| 20 | }; | |
| 21 | }; | |
| 22 | } | |
| 23 | ||
| 24 | Then, later, on another machine: | |
| 25 | ||
| 26 | laptop$ syncthing-set-id syncthing-devices.nix | |
| 27 | ||
| 28 | laptop$ cat syncthing-devices.nix | |
| 29 | { | |
| 30 | "services" = { | |
| 31 | "syncthing" = { | |
| 22596d75 SW |
32 | "devices" = { |
| 33 | "desktop" = { | |
| 34 | "id" = | |
| 35 | "1234567-89ABCDE-FGHIJKL-MNOPQRS-TUVWXYZ-0123456-789ABCD-EFGHIJK"; | |
| 36 | }; | |
| 37 | "laptop" = { | |
| 38 | "id" = | |
| 39 | "1111111-2222222-3333333-4444444-5555555-6666666-7777777-8888888"; | |
| 0c29f01e SW |
40 | }; |
| 41 | }; | |
| 42 | }; | |
| 43 | }; | |
| 44 | } | |

| 47 | ### Usage | |
| 0c29f01e SW |
48 | |
| 49 | $ syncthing-set-id | |
| 50 | ||
| 51 | usage: syncthing-set-device-id file [name] [id] | |
| 52 | example: syncthing-set-device-id /etc/nixos/modules/syncthing-devices.nix | |
| 53 | example: syncthing-set-device-id /etc/nixos/modules/syncthing-devices.nix lappy | |
| 54 | example: syncthing-set-device-id /etc/nixos/modules/syncthing-devices.nix lappy 1234567-89ABCDE-FGHIJKL-MNOPQRS-TUVWXYZ-0123456-789ABCD-EFGHIJK | |
| 55 | ||
| 56 | If `name` is not specified, $HOSTNAME is used. | |
| 57 | If `id` is not specified, the ID of the current system instance is used. | |

| 60 | ### Installation | |
| 61 | ||
| 62 | You can use this repo as a channel. | |
| 63 | ||
| 64 | Or, you can use an overlay. For example, you could create a `~/.config/nixpkgs/overlays/syncthing-set-id.nix` with this in it: | |
| 65 | ||
| 66 | self: super: | |
| 67 | let | |
| 68 | syncthing-set-id-pkgs = import (builtins.fetchGit { | |
| 69 | url = "https://scottworley.com/syncthing-set-id.git"; | |
| 70 | ref = "master"; | |
| 71 | rev = "0c29f01e83fdadd491b930a9108519be03c7937d"; | |
| 72 | }) { pkgs = self; }; | |
| 73 | in { inherit (syncthing-set-id-pkgs) syncthing-set-id; } | |
| 74 | ||
| 75 | And then | |
| 76 | ||
| 77 | $ nix-env -iA nixos.syncthing-set-id |
