Nix app vms

Simple application VM's based on Nix package manager.

Designed primarily for full screen usage without guest additions.

It's a proof-of-concept, but you can still use it. Also there is a lot of strange things inside, don't afraid of :)

Install Nix package manager

$ su -c 'mkdir -m 0755 /nix && chown user /nix'
$ curl https://nixos.org/nix/install | sh

Dependencies

$ su -c 'USE="spice virtfs" emerge qemu virt-manager'

Add appvm to PATH

$ echo 'PATH=$PATH:$HOME/appvm/bin' >> ~/.bashrc

(if you clone appvm to home directory)

Generate resolution

By default uses 3840x2160. If you need to regenerate appvm/nix/monitor.nix:

$ appvm/appvm.sh generate-resolution 1920 1080 > appvm/nix/monitor.nix

Autodetection is a bash-spaghetti, so you need to check results. BTW it's just a X.org monitor section.

Create VM

$ $HOME/appvm/appvm.sh build chromium

Run application

$ appvm.chromium

Shared directory

$ ls appvm/share/chromium
foo.tar.gz
bar.tar.gz
