nix configuration should consume ssh key facts

[sarcasticadmin]

Description

We currently are defining the ssh key and user configuration in nixos without consuming facts/keys. It would be better to consume them from facts so that they are all defined and updated in one place.

Acceptance Criteria

• facts/keys is utilized to define user ssh keys

What you thinking on this, a script that converts facts/keys to ssh.nix or something?

I maybe able to get the builds to fetch directly from github if need, and fall back to a local copy if the github 'is not available'.

all the details are here.

here are some idea's to lick this problem.

Since it should be updating not only the authorized keys files, but also creating user accounts and updating sudoers, I suspect ssh.nix might not be the right solution. OwenOn Feb 1, 2024, at 07:36, Lee Hughes @.***> wrote: What you thinking on this, a script that converts facts/keys to ssh.nix or something?

@kylerisse has already done some work previously on this. Im going to assign the issue to him and have him put in a PR accordingly. Its not anything terribly difficult since we already have the keys in facts/keys.
