GlusterFS example configuration

I’m looking into deploying a GlusterFS cluster for my Homelab running on Nix.
I can’t find much information and examples about how to go on.

I’ve looked at nixpkgs to see the options, but nothing seems relevant apart service.enable and tls config…

I’ve also looked at its github definition but about the same information can be found

github.com

NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/689fed12a013f56d4c4d3f612489634267d86529/nixos/modules/services/network-filesystems/glusterfs.nix

{ config, lib, pkgs, ... }:

with lib;

let
  inherit (pkgs) glusterfs rsync;

  tlsCmd = if (cfg.tlsSettings != null) then
  ''
    mkdir -p /var/lib/glusterd
    touch /var/lib/glusterd/secure-access
  ''
  else
  ''
    rm -f /var/lib/glusterd/secure-access
  '';

  restartTriggers = optionals (cfg.tlsSettings != null) [
    config.environment.etc."ssl/glusterfs.pem".source
    config.environment.etc."ssl/glusterfs.key".source

how would I go about configuring my bricks and volumes ?

anyways, I’d greatly appreciate it if you had examples or writeups to shoot my way
