# infra-rebuild
infra-rebuild mirrors nixos-rebuild closely in its command-line interface, but focuses on making infrastructure deployment more convenient. It is built for infrastructure defined in a flake, where each hosts configuration is represented by a different `nixosConfiguration` in the flakes output.
For building the configuration of e.g. two hosts called `web-01` and `git` one can simply run:
```
infra-rebuild build web-01 git
```
For deploying the hosts - using the switch operation - it's as simple as:
```
infra-rebuild switch web-01 git
```
Here infra-rebuild will simply run `nixos-rebuild switch` with the `target-host` option set for each host.
Because infra-rebuild tries to be usable without any configuration, by default it queries the hosts FQDN from its `nixosConfiguration` and uses that for the target host.
However to override aspects of the target host for specific or all hosts, infra-rebuild also accepts a `deployment_configuration.json` as configuration.

## Configuration
infra-rebuild accepts optional configuration in a `deployment_configuration.json` present in the flake repos root. \

The following keys are available to be set for configuring various aspects of deployment for specific or all hosts:
- `default.targetPort`: A default port to use for connecting to all host.
- `default.targetUser`: A default user to use for connecting to all host.
- `hosts.<host>.targetPort`: The port to use for connecting to `<host>`.
- `hosts.<host>.targetUser`: The user to use for connecting to `<host>`.
- `hosts.<host>.targetHostname`: The hostname to use for connecting to `<host>`.
### Example
An example `deployment_configuration.json` might look like this then:
```json
{
"default": {
"targetPort": 2222,
"targetUser": "deploy"
},
"hosts": {
"web-01": {
"targetUser": "web-deploy",
"targetHostname": "web-01-intern.infra.example",
"targetPort": 22
}
},
"git": {
"targetUser": "git-deploy"
}
}
```
### Order of Precedence
The order of precedence from least to greatest for `targetPort` and `targetUser` is the following:
1. system default
2. `default.targetPort/User`
3. `hosts.<host>.targetPort/User`
The order of precedence from least to greatest for `targetHostname` is the following:
1. FQDN from hosts nixosConfiguration
2. `hosts.<host>.targetHostname`
