JuxGD's Proton Flake

Based on imaviso's dwproton-flake, this is a bit of an expansion including as many Proton packages as I can think of. Use these packages in programs.steam.extraCompatPackages.

Features

• Automatically tracks the latest releases of different Proton versions:
  • CachyOS Proton
  • DW-Proton
  • GE Proton
• Daily GitHub Actions workflow to check for updates
• Simple flake-based installation

Usage

NixOS

Add the flake to your inputs and add the package to programs.steam.extraCompatPackages:

{
  inputs = {
    nixpkgs.url = "github:NixOS/nixpkgs/nixos-unstable";

    proton.url = "github:CachyOS/proton-flake"
  };

  outputs = { self, nixpkgs, dw-proton, cachyos-proton, ... }: {
    nixosConfigurations.yourhostname = nixpkgs.lib.nixosSystem {
      system = "x86_64-linux";
      modules = [
        ({ pkgs, ... }: {
          programs.steam = {
            enable = true;
            extraCompatPackages = [
              proton.packages.${pkgs.stdenv.hostPlatform.system}.cachyos-proton # for cachyos proton
              proton.packages.${pkgs.stdenv.hostPlatform.system}.dw-proton # for dawnwine proton
              proton.packages.${pkgs.stdenv.hostPlatform.system}.ge-proton # for glorious eggroll proton
            ];
          };
        })
      ];
    };
  };
}
