intended to swap out nixos-anywhere for terraform-nixos, over:

  • don't need nixos-anywhere to install nixos; we preload nixos to VMs
  • awkward non-flake usage
  • seemed not to pick up on config changes, as observed by test VMs
    losing their panel keys after TF sync

however, it seems that terraform-nixos has so far had its own flaws:

todo on terraform-nixos:

  • get terraform-nixos to work deployed by either:
    • pass on ssh info
    • figure out why terraform-nixos's ssh also needs SSH_AUTH_SOCK - not fixed by removing ssh options
  • preventing redeploy on no-op - data item data.external.nixos-instantiate still re-evaluates each time
    • [ ] output using a random id, i.e. forcing to push even on no changes (resources rerun on trigger changes)
  • cleanup
    • rm unneeded top-level variables
    • [ ] solve jq / <nixpkgs> thing
    • rebase
    • documentation

This reverts commit 95769084cef8187bf21c3ddf01d94a71d07a106c.
seemingly gets further when a similar command is tried from terminal.
as per https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/8752#issuecomment-1694714693,
this may have to do with aligning the current working directory.
in case we want that file for something else, we can move this (and its
ignore) to something separate.
