To automate NixOS server provisioning on Proxmox, you provide the hostname, container specs, and Proxmox target to spin up LXC containers. The workflow then handles SSH setup, Colmena configuration, and application deployment with nginx and PostgreSQL.

Configuring Colmena for a new NixOS host involves using an init and full pattern setup process. After creating the Proxmox LXC container and establishing SSH access, the workflow applies Colmena configuration templates to deploy the NixOS host.

Deploying NixOS containers with nginx SSL proxy and PostgreSQL requires Proxmox access, a NixOS image, Colmena configuration templates, and infrastructure secrets. The workflow uses these to configure the application deployment and database setup.

Yes, Colmena supports deploying NixOS configurations to Proxmox LXC containers. The workflow creates the LXC container, sets up SSH access, and then applies the Colmena configuration to provision and manage the NixOS host.

The best way to add new container images during NixOS server provisioning is through the workflow's repository update feature. It supports adding new container images and updating configurations alongside deploying applications via nginx and PostgreSQL.

Provisioning a NixOS server on Proxmox requires infrastructure secrets to securely configure application deployment components like nginx SSL proxies and PostgreSQL databases. These secrets are necessary inputs alongside Proxmox access and Colmena templates.
