* home.pointerCursor: init
The current architecture for cursor configurations is composed of individual
options for different backends. For example, X specific settings are managed under
`xsession.pointerCursor` and gtk specific settings are managed under `gtk.cursorTheme`.
While this architecture is modular, it causes duplication of similar structures for
each component. In theory, this provides flexibility because the components are independent
of each other which can be arranged in arbitrary ways to achieve the desired result.
However in practice, users wish to have one cursor theme applied to their entire system
The duplication of options correspond to duplication of settings on the user side and it
becomes a burden to keep track of all necessary settings.
This commit is an attempt to unify cursor configurations for different window systems and
GUI toolkits based on https://github.com/nix-community/home-manager/pull/2481#issuecomment-978917480.
`home.pointerCursor` is introduced as the interface for all cursor configurations.
It contain all options relevant to cursor themes with eneral options delcared under `home.pointerCursor.*`
and backend specific options declared under `home.pointerCursor.<backend>.*`. By default, a backend
independent configuration is generated. Backend specific configurations can be toggled via the
`home.pointerCursor.<backend>.enable` option for each backend. This was decided over using a
list of enums because it allows easy access to the state of the backend. Note generating different
cursor configurations for different backends is still possible by defining only `home.pointerCursor`
and managing the respective options manually.
* xcursor: migrate options to home.pointerCursor
- Removed `xession.pointerCursor` as x11 cursor configurations are now handled in `home.pointerCursor.x11`.
- Updated `meta.maintainer` field in `home.pointerCursor` and CODEOWNERS.
This module adds basic support for configuration specializations.
These allow the user to build multiple alternative configurations that
should be part of the same generation.
Note, the pubs configuration file uses ConfigObj syntax, which is
similar to the INI files syntax but with extra functionalities like
nested sections. This prevents it from using Nix's INI format
generator. Here is an example of pubs configuration that cannot be
generated using Nix's INI format generator:

[[git]]
manual=False
For this reason, we opted for a stringly-typed configuration since the
use of a structured `settings` option would require a custom parser.
Watson is a CLI for tracking your time.
Two unit tests were added to validate the module behavior for an empty
configuration and the example configuration.
Swayidle is an idle management daemon for Wayland. This modules adds support for
running swayidle as a SystemD user unit and makes it configurable through
home-manager.
Swaynag is a replacement of i3-nag for sway. Swaynag is embedded in
Sway's build process albeit it is not an integral part of Sway,
therefore it has been added under `wayland.windowManager.sway` instead
of `programs`. It can be moved at a later time if necessary.
Two unit tests were added validate the module behavior for an empty
configuration and the example configuration.
This commit introduces the `nixpkgs-disabled` module, that is
basically a mock of `nixpkgs` module where any value different from
`null` will cause an assertion error.
This is to help debugging cases where `home-manager.useGlobalPkgs` is
set to `true` and `nixpkgs.*` options are being used.
Nowadays this returns the following error:
```
error: The option `home-manager.users.<user>.nixpkgs` does not exist.
```
This will change too:
```
error: `nixpkgs` options are disabled when `home-manager.useGlobalPkgs` is enabled.
```
That will direct the user to the correct solution (either removing
`nixpkgs` or disable `home-manager.useGlobalPkgs`).
nnn is a terminal file manager.
It is configured mostly using environment variables, so the way I
found it to avoid needing to write either shell specific code or
using `home.sessionVariables` (that would need to make the user
relogin at every configuration change) is to wrap the program using
`wrapProgram`.
This commit adds a module for configuring atuin, a replacement shell
history program.
The module adds options for generating atuin's `config.toml` from Nix,
and options to enable atuin's integration for bash and zsh
(which will rebind history keys to open the atuin history).
Bottom is a cross-platform graphical process/system monitor with a
customizable interface and a multitude of features.
Two unit tests were added validate the module behavior for an empty

Fnott is a keyboard driven and lightweight Wayland notification daemon
for wlroots-based compositors.
There are four unit test to validate behavior for an empty
configuration, the default configuration, global properties and
systemd service file generation.
* pulseeffects: change default example
pulseeffects-pw is now an alias to easyeffects, and the `pulseeffects` binary
that this module references is no longer in that package.
* easyeffects: add module
The easyeffects service is the PipeWire equivalent of the pulseeffects
service.
Before, loading a module would be guarded by an optional platform
condition. This made it possible to avoid loading and evaluating a
module if it did not support the host platform.
Unfortunately, this made it impossible to share a single configuration
between GNU/Linux and Darwin hosts, which some wish to do.
This removes the conditional load and instead inserts host platform
assertions in the modules that are platform specific.

`rbw` is a stand-alone Bitwarden client, which makes use of a daemon to
cache your password and manage state.
Its configuration can be managed by `home-manager` or not, leaving the
user free to configure it through `rbw config`.
* xdg-desktop-entries: add module
rebase
* xdg-desktop-entries: adapt to changes in makeDesktopItem
This package depends on the makeDesktopItem function in nixpkgs, which recently changed its syntax:
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/91790
This commit makes the module compatible with the new syntax.
It also exposes the fileValidation option in makeDesktopItem.

Foot is a fast terminal emulator for Wayland. It can optionally be run
in a client-server configuration.
There are three unit tests to handle an empty configuration, the
default configuration, and systemd service file generation.
There is a need to manage XDG Base Directory system directory
environment variables in Home Manager modules. There is an existing
mechanism in `targets.genericLinux.extraXdgDataDirs', but this does not
apply to NixOS systems.
Furthermore, it is important that `XDG_CONFIG_DIRS' and `XDG_DATA_DIRS'
are set in both login shells (to support getty and SSH sessions) as well
as the systemd user manager (to propagate them to user services and
desktop environments).
The first need is addressed by adding the `xdg.systemDirs' module, which
configures lists of directory names for both `config' and `data'
directories. These are then set in
`$XDG_CONFIG_DIR/environment.d/10-home-manager.conf' and picked up by
the systemd user manager.
To make these, and other variables set in
`systemd.user.sessionVariables', available in login shells, an
additional step is added to `etc/profile.d/hm-session-vars.sh' which
exports the result of
`user-environment-generators/30-systemd-environment-d-generator' which
is shipped with systemd. The effect of this generator is to print
variables set on the systemd user manager such that shells can import
these into their environment.
`nix-index` is a tool to quickly locate the package providing a certain
file in `nixpkgs`. It indexes built derivations found in binary caches.
This module adds the shell integration for its `command-not-found`
script for interactive shells.

Add new options Darwin options:
- `targets.darwin.defaults`
This adds options for configuring macOS through the `defaults(1)` system.
This option can be used to manipulate a vast majority of user settings for macOS
and its applications.
This is implemented using freeform modules and includes additional descriptions
and type information for some useful options.
- `targets.darwin.keybindings`
This adds options for configuring the default keybindings for macOS text fields.
- `targets.darwin.search`
This adds options for configuring the default search engine for macOS.
Nowadays services.{redshift,gammastep} modules are really similar. They
should, since Gammastep is a fork of Redshift with the main objective is
to support Wayland.
So instead of trying to maintain two separate modules, this commit unify
the options in lib/options.nix file, making the implementation of the
module itself ends up being really simple (just calling the common
options with the necessary parameters to differentiate between them).
Adds a pet module without sync support as it makes no sense when
configuration is managed with Home Manager and the config would be
unwritable for pet anyway.
