The Goal

The goal of nixified.ai is to simplify and make available a large repository of AI executable code that would otherwise be impractical to run yourself, due to package management and complexity issues.

The outputs run primarily on NixOS and-or Linux, but can also run on Windows via NixOS-WSL. It is able to utilize the GPU of the Windows host automatically, as our wrapper script sets LD_LIBRARY_PATH to make use of the host drivers.

You can explore all this flake has to offer through the nix repl (tab-completion is your friend):

$ nix repl
nix-repl> :lf github:nixified-ai/flake
Added 26 variables.

The main outputs of the flake.nix at the moment are as follows:

ComfyUI ( A modular, node-based Stable Diffusion WebUI )

(warning: this will give you an empty comfyui without custom_nodes or models, see flake-modules/projects/comfyui/README.md for information on how to configure and use comfyui)

nix run github:nixified-ai/flake/2aeb76f52f72c7a242f20e9bc47cfaa2ed65915d#invokeai-nvidia
nix run github:nixified-ai/flake/2aeb76f52f72c7a242f20e9bc47cfaa2ed65915d#invokeai-amd (Broken due to lack of Nixpkgs ROCm support)

Enable binary cache

To make the binary substitution work and save you some time building packages, you need to tell nix to trust nixified-ai's binary cache. On nixos you can do that by adding these 2 lines to /etc/nixos/configuration.nix and rebuilding your system:

nix.settings.trusted-substituters = ["https://ai.cachix.org"];
nix.settings.trusted-public-keys = ["ai.cachix.org-1:N9dzRK+alWwoKXQlnn0H6aUx0lU/mspIoz8hMvGvbbc="];

If you are on another distro, just add these two lines to /etc/nix/nix.conf. In fact the line trusted-public-keys = ... should already be there and you only need to append the key for ai.cachix.org.

trusted-substituters = https://ai.cachix.org
trusted-public-keys = cache.nixos.org-1:6NCHdD59X431o0gWypbMrAURkbJ16ZPMQFGspcDShjY= ai.cachix.org-1:N9dzRK+alWwoKXQlnn0H6aUx0lU/mspIoz8hMvGvbbc=
