Morph is a CLI tool for managing and deploying NixOS host configurations, acting as a wrapper around nix-build, nix copy, and switch-to-configuration. It supports building, pushing, and activating configurations across multiple hosts with health checks and no persistent state.

Use cases

  • deploy nixos configurations to multiple servers
  • roll out nixos updates with health checks
  • push nix store closures to remote hosts over ssh
  • run health checks after nixos deployment
  • upload secrets to nixos hosts
  • execute commands across a fleet of nixos machines
  • dry-run nixos configuration changes before deploying

When to choose

  • you manage multiple NixOS hosts and want declarative multi-host deployments
  • you want a stateless deployment tool built on plain nix tooling
  • you need health checks to make rolling updates safer

When to avoid

  • you deploy non-NixOS Linux servers
  • you want prebuilt binaries without a nix setup
  • you need a full configuration management system like Ansible or Terraform
