1. clone the project using
|
||||
=git clone https://pagure.io/MSG/msg-qemu.git ~/.guix=
|
||||
|
||||
2. copy Guix.app from ~/.guix to your Applications folder
|
||||
|
||||
3. Run the guix application (this will take a minute to download the
|
||||
most recent image)
|
||||
|
||||
4. add these lines to your shell rc file (bashrc/zshrc) to access the
|
||||
guix environment from MacOS :
|
||||
|
||||
#+begin_example
|
||||
alias guix="ssh -i $HOME/.guix/ssh-cert/msg_rsa admin@127.0.0.1 -p 9001 'guix'"
|
||||
alias guix-env='f(){ ssh -i $HOME/.guix/ssh-cert/msg_rsa admin@127.0.0.1 -p 9001 /home/admin/.guix-profile/bin/$@; unset -f f; }; f'
|
||||
alias guix-app='f(){ ssh -X -i $HOME/.guix/ssh-cert/msg_rsa admin@127.0.0.1 -p 9001 /home/admin/.guix-profile/bin/$@; unset -f f; }; f'
|
||||
alias guix-shell="ssh -i $HOME/.guix/ssh-cert/msg_rsa admin@127.0.0.1 -p 9001"
|
||||
#+end_example
|
||||
|
||||
5. Make sure to restart your terminal or source your shellrc file after
|
||||
editing it (e.g =source ~/.bashrc=)

and then run =sudo guix system reconfigure /etc/config.scm=

- For xquartz to be able to display X11 apps forwarded from the vm, you
|
||||
must open xquartz and go to Top
|

Menu->Xquartz->Settings->Security->Enable 'Allow connections from
|

network clients'
|
||||
- If xquartz is enabled, you can use the .app files under ~/.guix/apps
|

to launch guix programs from macos
