Internally we already managed them per-profile but exposed a global
option to maintain backwards compatibility. The benefit to having
per-profile extensions is quite large though, so it is time to switch.
Users of the global extensions option will get an error message that
indicates how to edit their configuration to work again.
Firefox internally only supports bool, int, and string types for
preferences, but often stores objects, arrays and floats as strings.
This change makes it nicer to specify those type of preferences in
Nix, and it also makes it possible to merge objects & arrays across
multiple modules.
This reflects a systemd service sample file change made in borgmatic
1.7.6, commit 2e9f70d49647d47fb4ca05f428c592b0e4319544:
When backing up a machine with a monitor using logind to control
idle timeout and things like DPMS, borgmatic can block the screen
from turning on/off with systemd-inhibit. This is because by
default systemd-inhibit will block
"idle:sleep:shutdown". Borgmatic does not need to care about idle,
only about suspend and shutdown. So, add an explicit `--what` flag
for what borgmatic should inhibit.
For more information see systemd-inhibit(1).
Some JVMs pass through `home` as a derivation rather than as a string, as `openjdk` does. Since the module option for session variables expects a string, this is a type error. I suspect that this incorrect, and have changed the assignment here to coerce the `cfg.package.home` attribute to a string to be safe.
After discussing with @NobbZ, we have decided it is best to mitigate this problem in HM rather than to make potentially breaking changes to Nixpkgs.
Please do mention if you think we ought to propose a change to Nixpkgs instead.
Allow setting the application package and storePath used by the
config. Since the `programs.password-store` Home Manager module sets
config values via global environment variables, the default behavior
of the module should continue to behave as before for the user.
Additionally,
- Adds a few tests.
- Use "escapeShellArg" function call to the path parameter call to
ensure paths with spaces work.
- Allow not setting storePath, which will cause `pass_secret_service`
to default to using `~/.password-store`.
- If `pass-secret-service` is enabled, set its store path to default
to the one defined in our password-store environment settings.
- Add myself (houstdav000) as maintainer.
Fish shell doesn't require arguments to `eval` to be double quoted
like in a bash shell. At the moment doing so gives us the following
error:
~/.config/fish/config.fish (line 12): $(...) is not supported. In fish, please use '(/nix/store/8asq…)'.
eval "$(/nix/store/8asqgnhs89wzyjvs8p1n5hvxn7lkn9wa-opam-2.1.3/bin/opam env --shell=fish)"

This commit fixes the above error.
The default value of `programs.ncmpcpp.mpdMusicDir` is taken from
`services.mpd.musicDirectory` if the mpd module is enabled, which has
type `either path str`. `programs.ncmpcpp.mpdMusicDir` did not accept
`str` values, though, so an error was raised when the default value was
used and `services.mpd.musicDirectory` was set to a value of type `str`.
This commit changes the type of `programs.ncmpcpp.mpdMusicDir` to also
accept `str` to reflect the type of `services.mpd.musicDirectory`.
Fixes#3560
* home-environment: use `lazyAttrsOf` for `home.sessionVariables`
`attrs` has unreasonable merge semantics and is deprecated. `attrsOf`
doesn't support variables depending on each other as is recommended in
the option's description.
* home-environment: restrict `sessionVariables` type
The consumer is `toString`, but we don't want to accept e.g. lists.
Assigning to `programs.neovim.extraLuaPackages` a function taking a lua package set as input
and returning a list of packages, as described in the documentation,
threw an error because the rest of the code assumed that the value was always a plain list.
Using `lib.types.coercedTo`, we can accept such functions, as per the documentation,
as well as plain lists, which we then convert to a function ignoring its input argument.
We print a warning when a plain list is assigned, since the function
form is preferred, as it ensures that the right lua package set is used.
For the lua packages, we also get the lua package set from the
finalPackage, to make sure that we are always using the same package set
as the actual unwrapped neovim package being built.
For `programs.neovim.extraPythonPackages` I did the same.
I updated the test case so that we test both ways of setting these options.
This enables nushell integration by default for direnv, similar to
bash/zsh/fish. The slightly verbose way of setting this is to ensure
that peoples' existing nushell configuration isn't overwritten, only
appended to, as would be the case if we just used the integration
example from the nushell docs:
https://www.nushell.sh/cookbook/direnv.htmlCloses#3520
Previously the nushell module did not differentiate between Linux and
Darwin when deciding where to place config files, whereas nushell
does. This commit fixes that.
The default value for `xsession.windowManager.herbstluftwm.tags` is an
empty list, but the config file uses `builtins.head` on it, which causes
an error upon evaluation. With this change the tags configuration is
skipped if the list is empty.
The previous variant used IFD to generate the `JAVA_HOME` variable and relied on internal hooks of the `java` package, this failed for a user cross compiling their configuration.
This PR changes that and uses the `home` attribute, as documented in the very last sentence of the https://nixos.org/manual/nixpkgs/stable/#sec-language-java chapter.
The old trigger would actually never cause a restart since the path
doesn't change. With this change the trigger is now using the actual
configuration path in the Nix store, which depends on the content.
While this is created to match `himalaya`’s configuration API, this
could easly be reused for other programs that consume the email module
by concatination the strings.
The previous version linked the file into home, then sourced that. Since
nothing else expects that file to be there, this is unnecessary.
Additionally, doing so made it impossible to test a built config without
switching, e.g. using `XDG_CONFIG_HOME=… nvim` or `nvim -u`. This
remedies that, at least for this particular reference.
To test this, change from asserting contents of the config file to
actually starting nvim, outputting sentinel values, and then asserting
their values are present. This way it’s tested that nvim loaded the
config, rather than that some config is in a specific place.
This is all in one commit as the test, as written now, would not have
worked before since the previously hard-coded home path was not an
actual file in the test environment.
Specifically, inform the command about the absolute path of
dbus-daemon. Otherwise it will try running dbus-daemon from PATH,
which may not always work.
PR #3405
* ssh: add generic Match support for matchBlocks
Introduce conservative support for actual `Match`
blocks in ssh config.
"Conservative" means this PR doesn'tt try to process
the `match` expression and simply uses it as a string
provided by the user.
If set, `match` has precedence over `host` meaning
if both are set, `match` is used and `host` is ignored.
* Add news entry
Rather than reject a configuration when this option is set, just
silently ignore it when the platform isn't darwin. The name makes it
obvious that it won't be applied outside of darwin, and this allows
people to use the same configuration between hosts without any special concern.
