How to Install POMjs on NixOS Latest

POMjs is a password manager software available to NixOS Latest users. This tutorial will guide you through the process of installing POMjs on your system.

Step 1: Enable Caching

Firstly, you need to configure NixOS to enable caching for your system. Run the following commands to enable caching:

$ sudo mkdir -p /etc/nix
$ sudo nano /etc/nix/nix.conf

Then, add the following lines in the file to enable caching:

substituters = https://cache.nixos.org https://password.oppetmoln.se/
trusted-public-keys = cache.nixos.org-1:6NCHdD59X431o0gWypbMrAURkbJ16ZPMQFGspcDShjY= oppetmoln.se-1:0MTTPPQQmYFpI0BmZ0vLxD77DwGoTrPzn2eyb0r6OgM=

Lastly, save and close the file.

Step 2: Install POMjs

Now that caching is enabled, you can proceed with the installation of POMjs. Run the following commands to install POMjs:

$ sudo nix-channel --add https://nixos.org/channels/nixos-unstable
$ sudo nix-channel --update
$ sudo nix-env -iA nixos.pom

This will download and install POMjs on your system.

Step 3: Configure POMjs

Once the installation is complete, you can start configuring POMjs. Run the following command to create a configuration file:

$ touch ~/.config/POMjs.json

Then, add the following lines in the file:

{
  "apiUrl": "https://password.oppetmoln.se/",
  "autoLockTimeout": 600000,
  "autoSubmitTimeout": 5000,
  "offline": false
}

Lastly, save and close the file.
