Installing the package provided by the flake

You can install it with either environment.systemPackages or home.packages

With environment.systemPackages (nixosModules)

  { inputs, ... }: {
    environment.systemPackages = [
      inputs.burpsuitepro.packages.${system}.default
    ];
  }

With home.packages (home-manager)

   { inputs, ... }: {
     home.packages = [
       inputs.burpsuitepro.packages.${system}.default
     ];
   }

chmod +x burp
sudo cp burp /usr/local/bin/burp

Explanation:

• The installmacos.sh script creates a burp script to run Burp Suite with required Java options.
• Uses $(pwd) to reference JAR files in the current directory.
• Makes the script executable and copies it to /usr/local/bin for global access.

Notes

• Running the Shortcut: Run burp from the Burpsuite-Professional directory containing loader.jar and burpsuite_pro_v2025.5.6.jar. For global use, replace $(pwd) with absolute paths.
