# affinity-nix

## About
Affinity v3 & v2 packaged with Nix!
Based on https://github.com/lf-/affinity-crimes and https://affinity.liz.pet/, and uses [ElementalWarrior's wine](https://gitlab.winehq.org/ElementalWarrior/wine).
We also install https://github.com/noahc3/AffinityPluginLoader for a far more pleasant experience.
> [!WARNING]
> Affinity on Wine is far from perfect and you will likely experience bugs and issues. Please have patience and [report any issues you experience](https://github.com/mrshmllow/affinity-nix/issues/new/choose).
## Support
Thank you to my GitHub sponsors!

## Preamble
> [!TIP]
> We provide a binary cache for this repo. Please [add cache.forall.systems as a substituter](https://cache.forall.systems/) to avoid compiling yourself.
> [!NOTE]
> This repo does not attempt to redistribute affinity archives. Any instance of caching Canva IP should be reported as a bug.
User preferences are located in `$XDG_DATA_HOME/affinity/` or `$XDG_DATA_HOME/affinity-v3/` falling back to `$HOME/.local/share/affinity/` or `$HOME/.local/share/affinity-v3/`.
## How it works
A wine prefix containing all the necessary dependencies and the affinity installation is built in nix and mounted at runtime.
Overlayfs is used to keep your user preferences intact. [fuse-overlayfs](https://github.com/containers/fuse-overlayfs) will be fallen back on if your kernel rejects unprivileged user namespaces, common on hardened systems. This can reduce performance.

## Usage Instructions
### Running Ad-hoc
```bash
$ nix run github:mrshmllow/affinity-nix#affinity-v3
-- v2 versions:
$ nix run github:mrshmllow/affinity-nix#affinity-photo
$ nix run github:mrshmllow/affinity-nix#affinity-designer
$ nix run github:mrshmllow/affinity-nix#affinity-publisher
```
### Installing the applications on your system (Optional)
#### Install with nix-profile
```bash
$ nix profile install github:mrshmllow/affinity-nix#affinity-v3
-- v2 versions:
$ nix profile install github:mrshmllow/affinity-nix#affinity-photo
$ nix profile install github:mrshmllow/affinity-nix#affinity-designer
$ nix profile install github:mrshmllow/affinity-nix#affinity-publisher
```
#### Install on NixOS / Home Manager with Flakes
Installing via an overlay is recommended, as the package is `unfree`
making it difficult to use directly.
Install with NixOS:
```nix
# flake.nix
{
inputs = {
affinity-nix.url = "github:mrshmllow/affinity-nix";
# ...
};
outputs = inputs @ {
affinity-nix,
...
}: {
nixosConfigurations.my-system = nixpkgs.lib.nixosSystem {
system = "x86_64-linux";
specialArgs = {inherit inputs;};
modules = [
# ...
({ pkgs, ... }: {
nixpkgs.overlays = [ affinity-nix.overlays.default ];
environment.systemPackages = [ pkgs.affinity-v3 ];
})
];
};
}
}
```
Install with Home Manager:
```nix
# flake.nix
{
inputs = {
affinity-nix.url = "github:mrshmllow/affinity-nix";
# ...
};
outputs = inputs @ {
affinity-nix,
...
}: {
homeConfigurations.my-user = home-manager.lib.homeManagerConfiguration {
pkgs = nixpkgs.legacyPackages."x86_64-linux";
extraSpecialArgs = {inherit inputs;};
modules = [
# ...
({ pkgs, ... }: {
nixpkgs.overlays = [ affinity-nix.overlays.default ];
home.packages = [ pkgs.affinity-v3 ];
})
];
};
}
}
```
#### Install on NixOS without Flakes
Install without flakes:
```nixos
# configuration.nix
{ config, pkgs, ... }:
let
affinity = import (fetchTarball "https://github.com/mrshmllow/affinity-nix/archive/refs/heads/main.tar.gz");
in
{
nixpkgs.overlays = [
affinity.overlays.default
];
users.users.my-user.packages = with pkgs; [
affinity-photo
];
}
```
### Troubleshooting, winetricks, wineboot, and more
Each package (`v3|photo|designer|publisher`) has the following usage:
```sh
$ affinity-v3 --help
Usage: affinity-v3 [OPTIONS] [AFFINITY_ARGUMENTS]... [COMMAND]
Commands:
wine Run wine within sandbox
winetricks Run winetricks within sandbox
wineboot Run wineboot within sandbox
wineserver Run wineserver within sandbox
help Print this message or the help of the given subcommand(s)
Arguments:
[AFFINITY_ARGUMENTS]... Arguments for affinity application
Options:
--verbose Make Wine far more verbose
-h, --help Print help
-V, --version Print version
```
> [!TIP]
> Armed with these you should be able to follow https://affinity.liz.pet/v2/misc-troubleshooting/ for troubleshooting steps.
For example, accessing `wine`:
```sh
$ affinity-v3 wine
Usage: wine PROGRAM [ARGUMENTS...] Run the specified program
wine --help Display this help and exit
wine --version Output version information and exit
```
Or `winecfg`:
```sh
$ affinity-v3 wine winecfg
```
