colin b658b93c64 lappy: store the hashed user passwd in git and decrypt it into /etc/passwd on boot
this approach lets me persist the password. persisting /etc/shadow
directly wasn't so feasible. populating /etc/shadow at activation time
is something nix already does and is easy to plug into.
so we store the passwd hash in this repo, but encrypt it to the
destination machine's ssh pubkey to add enough entropy that it's not
brute-forceable through the public git repo.

# SOPS configuration:
# docs: https://github.com/Mic92/sops-nix
#
# for each new user you want to edit sops files:
# create a private age key from ssh key:
# $ mkdir -p ~/.config/sops/age; ssh-to-age -private-key -i ~/.ssh/id_ed25519 > ~/.config/sops/age/keys.txt; chmod 600 ~/.config/sops/age/keys.txt
# if the private key was password protected, then first decrypt it:
# $ cp ~/.ssh/id_ed25519 /tmp/id_ed25519
# $ ssh-keygen -p -N "" -f /tmp/id_ed25519
#
# for each user you want to decrypt secrets:
# $ cat ~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub | ssh-to-age
# add the result to .sops.yaml
# since we specify ssh pubkeys in the nix config, you can just grep for `ssh-ed25519` here and use those instead
#
# for each machine you want to decrypt secrets:
# $ cat /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ed25519_key.pub | ssh-to-age
# add the result to .sops.yaml
# $ sops updatekeys secrets/example.yaml
#
# to create a new secret:
# $ sops secrets/example.yaml
# control access below (sops.secret.<x>.owner = ...)
#
# to read a secret:
# $ cat /run/secrets/example_key
# sops.age.sshKeyPaths = [ "/home/colin/.ssh/id_ed25519_dec" ];
# This will add secrets.yaml to the nix store
# You can avoid this by adding a string to the full path instead, i.e.
# sops.defaultSopsFile = "/root/.sops/secrets/example.yaml";
sops.defaultSopsFile = ./../../secrets/universal.yaml;
# This will automatically import SSH keys as age keys
sops.age.sshKeyPaths = [
"/etc/ssh/ssh_host_ed25519_key"
];
sops.gnupg.sshKeyPaths = []; # disable RSA key import
# This is using an age key that is expected to already be in the filesystem
# sops.age.keyFile = "/home/colin/.ssh/age.pub";
# sops.age.keyFile = "/var/lib/sops-nix/key.txt";
# This will generate a new key if the key specified above does not exist
# sops.age.generateKey = true;
# This is the actual specification of the secrets.
# sops.secrets.example_key = {
# owner = config.users.users.colin.name;
# };
# sops.secrets."myservice/my_subdir/my_secret" = {};
