A Nix flake for a GregTech New Horizons server updated to the latest daily build. This normally requires quite a lot of administration with a ton of manual bootstrapping steps, and even though there are solutions for normal modded Minecraft servers, GTNH requires a bit more legwork. My hope is to make it an extremely simple home-manager module that works on NixOS and darwin that syncs the manifest to a configured server (had to patch Caedis' gtnh-daily-updater to achieve this), and a NixOS module that manages said server. It's already up and running on my personal machine, so I just have to refactor it to be configurable - I love working with Nix so much I wish I could do it for a job T.T
Thank you for your service.
As someone who has done and is doing Nix as part of my job: you just have to carve it out of reality.
I start with non-invasive stuff like a shell.nix. The farthest I got is dendritic kubenix. :-D
