nixos-docker-sd-image-builder | Build custom SD images of NixOS for your Raspberry Pi

nixos-docker-sd-image-builder is a Shell library. nixos-docker-sd-image-builder has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities, it has a Permissive License and it has low support. You can download it from GitHub.

Since September 2020 (or NixOS 20.09), OpenSSH is now enabled by default in pre-built NixOS SD images. However, NixOS does not ship with a default password nor keypair for security reasons, which means you will have to insert an SSH key manually after you have flashed the image to an SD card. Usually, this is an easier and faster process than using this repository to build a brand-new NixOS image if you just want to use NixOS headlessly. This can be done by mounting the SD card block device on a Linux system and adding the key in /home/nixos/.ssh/authorized_keys or /root/.ssh/authorized_keys with the appropriate permissions, or by chrooting and running passwd. See the official documentation for more information about this process. This project is still useful in case you want to have further customization capabilities on your installer image, or in case you want pre-baked images with your SSH key already in them.
