🌸 fractuscontext / nur-packages

My personal NUR repository.

This repository hosts custom Nix packages and overlays, specifically focused on macOS (Darwin) applications that are either missing from or outdated in nixpkgs.

📦 What's Inside

overlays/mac-apps

A custom overlay that provides auto-updated DMGs for macOS apps. These are fetched directly from upstream GitHub/GitLab releases via a custom update-mac-apps script.

Package	Upstream	Architecture
LibreWolf	librewolf-community	Universal (x64/arm64)
Whisky	Whisky-App	Universal
Standard Notes	standardnotes	Universal
Lunar	Lunar.fyi	Universal
Sol	Sol	Universal
Telegram Desktop	telegramdesktop	Universal
Ungoogled Chromium	ungoogled-software	Universal
Bambu Studio	bambulab	Universal
Kap	getkap	Universal (x64/arm64)

🛠 Usage

1. Add to your flake.nix

{
  inputs = {
    nixpkgs.url = "github:NixOS/nixpkgs/nixpkgs-unstable";
    
    # Add this repo
    my-nur.url = "github:fractuscontext/nix-nur";
  };

  outputs = { self, nixpkgs, my-nur, ... }: {
    darwinConfigurations."macbook" = darwin.lib.darwinSystem {
      modules = [
        ({ pkgs, ... }: {
          nixpkgs.overlays = [ my-nur..overlays.mac-apps ];
        })
      ];
    };
  };
}

2. Install Packages

Once the overlay is added, these apps appear in your pkgs namespace just like standard packages:

# In your home-manager or darwin configuration
home.packages = with pkgs; [
  librewolf
  whisky
  standardnotes
];

🤖 Automation

This repo uses GitHub Actions to keep everything fresh:

1. build.yml: Runs daily CI checks to ensure packages evaluate correctly and notifies the NUR registry of updates.
2. overlay-update.yml: Runs every Tuesday to check upstream GitHub/GitLab releases. If a new version is found (e.g., a new LibreWolf DMG), it auto-generates a PR with the updated src.json and SHA256 hashes.
