# nix-darwin module {#sec-flakes-nix-darwin-module}
The flake-based setup of the Home Manager nix-darwin module is similar
to that of NixOS. The `flake.nix` would be:
``` nix
{
description = "Darwin configuration";
inputs = {
nixpkgs.url = "github:nixos/nixpkgs/nixos-unstable";
darwin.url = "github:lnl7/nix-darwin";
darwin.inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs";
home-manager.url = "github:nix-community/home-manager";
home-manager.inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs";
};
outputs = inputs@{ nixpkgs, home-manager, darwin, ... }: {
darwinConfigurations = {
hostname = darwin.lib.darwinSystem {
system = "x86_64-darwin";
modules = [
./configuration.nix
home-manager.darwinModules.home-manager
{
home-manager.useGlobalPkgs = true;
home-manager.useUserPackages = true;
home-manager.users.jdoe = import ./home.nix;
# Optionally, use home-manager.extraSpecialArgs to pass
# arguments to home.nix
}
];
};
};
};
}
```
and it is also rebuilt with the nix-darwin generations. The rebuild
command here may be `darwin-rebuild switch --flake <flake-uri>`.
You can use the above `flake.nix` as a template in `~/.config/darwin` by
``` shell
$ nix flake new ~/.config/darwin -t github:nix-community/home-manager#nix-darwin
```
