#NixOnDroid

2025-04-12

Any way to trigger a command in #NixOnDroid with the press of a button on the home screen?

For #termux there is the widget app but it doesn't appear to work with #nix-on-droid.

I really don't want to have to install and maintain #gitAnnex using some install script and some prebuilt global FHS binaries when I could simply get it from #nixpkgs.

Merged (read: jerry-rigged) my #NixOnDroid config into my main #NixOS config. I haven't figured out how (or if) I can add it to Snowfall, but at the very least, I can pass args like `namespace` and maybe even `lib`. For now, everything lives in its own little isolated folder and is called from flake.nix.

@aires What I really want is #NixOnDroid compiled with the #Emacs signing key so I can use #NixPackageManager to install the dependencies for #OrgRoam for use with the Android version of GUI Emacs ๐Ÿ˜‹

@ike @quad #Termux on Android seems to have it by default, but #NixOnDroid needs to have it installed as part of the util-linux package:

headless servers are coming along. Many road blocks getting a webserver up with , finally gave up and wrote a simple http node server ๐Ÿ˜…

The Pi and the extra hub will be replaced by a NixOS microVM on my server that will run the ADB server.

openssh enabled with nix-on-droid, each device has remote adb access so I can power cycle, boot to recovery for remote sideload upgrades, and perform android actions as well as remote display with `scrcpy`.

tip: Due to the nature of the chroot environment for nix-on-droid, updating your hostname isn't really possible without root and system modifications. So you are stuck with `localhost`. If you really just want the visual indicator when SSHd in or using nix-on-droid terminal why not update your PS1 prompt within ~/.profile

ยดยดยด
export PS1="\n\[\033[1;32m\][\[\e]0;\u@\h:\w\a\]\u @ yourDesiredHostname :\w]\n $ \[\033[0m\]"
ยดยดยด

Replace `\h` in any PS1 with yourDesiredHostname

#NixOnDroid is really nifty. I just used it to re-encode some media files on the go, with appropriate CLI utils ๐Ÿ˜„

@svw @nickanderson I had the same question. A quick look found this, Orgro (Live your life in Org Mode? Take it with you on your Android device.) f-droid.org/packages/com.madlo , but it appears to use the service rather than local Files.

I was also experimenting with #NeoVim in #NixOnDroid, which, I think has an org-mode plugin.

@cassidy I've been surprised just how much can be done with #NixOnDroid, but that's a heavy lift for consumers, so I look forward to seeing what can be done with this nee VM. ๐Ÿ˜Ž

@limes I miss my old Underwood manual #Typewriter. It was great for envelopes and carbon paper forms ๐ŸŒž

P.S. I had never heard of neofetch until recently, when I installed #NixOS. OTOH it looks really amazing on #NixOnDroid ๐Ÿ˜Ž

Is anybody here using #OkcAgent/okc-agents, aka the glue between Termux and #OpenKeychain? I tried to package it for #nixondroid, but I can't even make it work in Termux, it's like the discovery broadcast never gets through...

@eisfunke Can you elaborate a bit? What is this? Is this #nixondroid ?
