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:
[plugins]
[[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.
Previously, if a process inside a foot client triggered the OOM killer,
systemd would also kill the parent unit, namely the foot server.
This is not ideal if a user has a lot of clients attached, and it's
usually not the terminal emulator's fault that a process inside it has
ended up using all the available memory.
This patch moves both home.sessionVariables and
programs.zsh.sessionVariables from .zshrc to .zshenv. Additionally,
these two kinds of session variables will not be sourced more than
once to allow user-customized ones to take effect.
Before, session variables are in .zshrc, which causes non-interactive
shells to not be able to get those variables. For example, running a
command through SSH is in a non-interactive and non-login shell, which
suffers from this. With this patch, all kinds of shells can get
session variables.
The reason why these session variables are not moved to .zprofile is
that programs started by systemd user instances are not able to get
variables defined in that file. For example, GNOME
Terminal (gnome-terminal-server.service) is one of these programs and
doesn't get variables defined in .zprofile. As a result, the shells it
starts, which are interactive and non-login, do not get those
variables.

This file is not formatted before and is excluded by ./format, so I don't format it.
When an hook is defined, a side effect was the creation of the
${notmuchIni.database.path}/.notmuch/ directory by home-manager. If
the Xapian database does not exist yet but this .notmuch directory
exists, Notmuch is confused and throws an error when `notmuch new` is
run (while this should create the database the first time).
This commit changes the hooks paths to $XDG_CONFIG_HOME where Notmuch
expects them (see notmuch-config(1)) instead of inside the maildir
database directory.
It also moves the configuration where Notmuch expects it, but the
$NOTMUCH_CONFIG environment variable is kept for backward
compatibility.
Plugins now accept a "type" element describing the language (viml, lua
, teal, fennel, ...) in which
they are configured.
The configuration of the different plugins is aggregated per language
and made available as a key in the attribute set `programs.neovim.generatedConfigs`
For instance if you want to configure a lua package:
```
programs.neovim.plugins = [
{
plugin = packer-nvim;
type = "lua";
config = ''
require('packer').init({
luarocks = {
python_cmd = 'python' -- Set the python command to use for running hererocks
},
})
'';
}
]
```
and you can save the generated lua config to a file via
```
xdg.configFile = {
"nvim/init.generated.lua".text = config.programs.neovim.generatedConfigs.lua;
};
```
- Add support for command line arguments, this allows arguments to be
persistently set if needed (i.e workaround hardware bugs or enabling
certain flags).
- Document setting a custom package will nullify the `commandLineArgs`
option.
- Fix `mkRemovedOption` assertion from being apply even when the
`extensions` option is unused for google chrome modules.
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.
- The check did not account the default value of `settings.modules` to be `{}`.
The default value was changed to null.
- The `settings.modules` option is now hidden from the docs.
Currently, dot directories and XDG base directories are used
inconsistently in the Home Manager option declarations. This creates
ambiguity for the user as to where the location of the file should be
albeit this is rarely encountered in practice as it is sufficient to
read upstream documentation. The rationale is to make declarations
consistent and make a clear distinction between hardcoded and modular
specifications.
References to ~/.config in relevant nixpkgs modules were untouched as
the location is hardcoded upstream[1]. Furthermore, modules of
programs which do not follow XDG specifications were also untouched.
Generalization of tilde(~) expansions to $HOME were also considered,
however there isn't sufficient rationale despite the use of $HOME
being more universal. The expansion is standardized in POSIX[2] and is
essentially portable across all shells, thus there is no pragmatic
value to introducing the change.

Previously, home-manager would not create a user.js for a certain
profile if profile.bookmarks was not empty but
profile.settings was empty and profile.extraConfig was an
empty string.
The `style` option now also accepts a path instead of a text
configuration.
Keeping up with new Waybar options is annoying, so make the module a
freeform module.
The `modules` option will be removed in release 22.05.
The logic to generate warnings for modules and everything was
removed. I don't want to maintain the code that generates these
warnings anymore.
Since Rofi 1.7.1 (specifically davatorium/rofi@0e70d8a), the deprecated
`theme` option in the `configuration` section no longer works. For 1.7.0
and up, `@theme "name"` is supposed to be used *after* the
`configuration` block.
Nixpkgs switched to OfflineIMAP version 8 which means that Python 3 is
now used instead of Python 2. As a result, get_pass() now returns a
byte array instead of a string and the argument to get_pass() must be
a byte array too. See
https://github.com/OfflineIMAP/offlineimap3/issues/103.
Add an option to set custom `$ZPLUG_HOME`. Changing it with
`home.sessionVariables` doesnt work, since it has to be exported
before Zplug is initialised
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 is to better integrate with more advanced shell history managers
like McFly and Atuin. By initializing fzf first, we allow the history
managers to steal the C-r key binding from fzf.
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).
