Inquiry on current state of LXC (and resource allocation)

[amyipdev]

Hey y'all! proxmox-nixos is exactly the solution I've been looking for to do what I need to do, thanks to everyone who's contributed.

I've been looking at the "Make LXC Works" issues but have had a hard time tracking what actual progress has been made there, and how LXC containers are made currently and how they would be made post-PR. My intended use case is 100% LXC based, but Proxmox's LXC implementation works a lot better for what I need than Incus/LXD, which is the entire reason I'm using Proxmox in the first place.

How would I go about making containers declaratively under the current system, and post-PR? (love that I can just drop in Is this something where additional patches may need to be created similar to the declarative-vms module, and if so how can I help?

Also, I use impermanence and a tmpfs for my /. This works fine, except that I do have some disk space allocated that I want to add as my "local" storage for images. I also will be adding an LVM logical volume set shortly, but I don't see how I'd add that in; this may just be my naivete with proxmox-nixos, as I've generally just relied on local-lvm having been pre-provisioned on my non-NixOS Proxmox systems.
