## Simplify nixos-related commands
I use Makefile to simplify nixos-related commands, which is very convenient.
You can also use other similar tools to do this job, here I will only introduce my usage as a reference.
My Makefile looks like this:
```makefile
#
# NOTE: Makefile's target name should not be the same as one of the file or directory in the current directory,
# otherwise the target will not be executed!
#
############################################################################
#
# Nix commands related to the local machine
#

deploy:
nixos-rebuild switch --flake . --use-remote-sudo
debug:
nixos-rebuild switch --flake . --use-remote-sudo --show-trace --verbose
update:
nix flake update
history:
nix profile history --profile /nix/var/nix/profiles/system
gc:
# remove all generations older than 7 days
sudo nix profile wipe-history --profile /nix/var/nix/profiles/system --older-than 7d
# garbage collect all unused nix store entries
sudo nix store gc --debug

ssh-add ~/.ssh/ai-idols

nixos-rebuild --flake .#aquamarine --target-host aquamarine --build-host aquamarine switch --use-remote-sudo

idols: aqua ruby kana
idols-debug: aqua-debug ruby-debug kana-debug
```
Save the above Makefile to the root directory of the flake, and then we can use `make deploy` to deploy the configuration to the local machine, and use `make idols` to deploy the configuration to all my remote servers.
