This patch started by addresssing the code review comments to close
https://github.com/rycee/home-manager/pull/290. However initiating a new
pull request it became clear, that home-manager changed significantly
since then.
This changes the initial pull request to be consistent with the email
account management in home-manager now. It also adds a simple test and support
for multiple accounts.
Because `extraPackages` and `overrides` expect functions as values it
has not been possible to perform merges. This adds suitable types for
these options that allow reasonable merging.
When a configuration file would be written to an existing file, rather
than failing switch (and having the user have to move or delete those
files), move the files automatically to a new path.
Closes#585
In particular, don't add trailing backslashes introduced by
`xautolockExtraOptions`. Systemd's unit file parser seems to have
gotten a bit stricter and with systemd 242, the trailing backslash
caused the next non-empty line to be ignored.
In that case, this was `[Section]`, so all subsequent settings were
mistakenly added to `[Service]`, causing them to be ignored entirely.
Simplify and fix this by using `concatStringsSep` to build a single
`ExecStart` line.
This fixes a build error occurring when building a configuration
having fontconfig enabled and `home.packages` only containing one
package installing things to `/lib`.
Also adds a number of test cases to verify the fontconfig cache
generation functionality.
Fixes#703
Add parens to expression so the `-exec` includes files matching both.
Otherwise (before this change) the `-exec` is only invoked for
links (`-type l`):
file or (link -> doexec)
=>
(file or link) -> doexec
Also deprecates the `fonts.fontconfig.enableProfileFonts` option. The
configuration is now always generated if `fonts.fontconfig.enable` is
set.
Fixes#520
Unfortunately, using `attrsOf` is not possible since it results in too
eager evaluation. In particular, the
home.sessionVariables = {
FOO = "Hello";
BAR = "${config.home.sessionVariables.FOO} World!";
};
example will cause an infinite recursion.
This commit restores the option type of
- `home.sessionVariables`,
- `pam.sessionVariables`,
- `programs.bash.sessionVariables`, and
- `programs.zsh.sessionVariables`
to `attrs`. It also adds test cases for the above options to avoid
regressions.
Fixes#659
Having this in the unit file will prevent the file from being
restarted if a change is detected. This is useful if data loss may
occur if the unit is suddenly restarted. For example, restarting the
Emacs service may result in the loss of unsaved open buffers.
This should allow more sensible merging behavior. In particular, with
this change it is possible to use, for example, `mkForce` for greater
control of merging.
Fixes#543
When using the NixOS module we cannot guarantee that the Nix store
will be writable during startup. Installing the user packages through
`nix-env -i` will fail in these cases.
This commit adds a NixOS option `home-manager.useUserPackages` that,
when enabled, installs user packages through the NixOS
users.users.<name?>.packages
option.
Note, when submodule support and external package install is enabled
then the installed packages are not available in `~/.nix-profile`. We
therefore set `home.profileDirectory` directly to the HM profile
packages.
This removes the `nixosSubmodule` option in favor of a new option
`submoduleSupport.enable`. This name better indicates that the
submodule mode applies to both NixOS and nix-darwin.
On non-x86 architectures (for example, aarch64) the installation of
home-manager fails indicating that it is attempting to select i686
packages for Linux and those aren't available.
Solution: make the condition for choosing these packages stricter
Makes fish use global scope for abbreviations.
This makes it so that they don't stick across config changes.
Before, an abbreviation would still exist even if removed from the config.
In particular support source files whose name start with `.` or
contain characters not allowed in the nix store, such as spaces.
Also add some test cases for `home.file`.
This patch allow to define custom msmtp options per email account. For
example: to change the "auth" method from "on" to "login", add
`msmtp.extraConfig.auth="login"`.
Add option "extraLocalVars" for additional local variable definitions
in .zshrc, at the top of the file.
Some zsh plugins/themes expect configuration in local variables before they
are loaded (example: https://github.com/bhilburn/powerlevel9k). Exporting
those clutters the environment and is unnecessary.
Use the new module lib.zsh to generate export statements in zsh syntax, using
zsh arrays for lists.
Being a zsh script, this seems more intuitive for .zshrc
Added utilities to generate export statements and definitions for zsh scripts.
Currently, there is only lib.shell which generates export statements in bash
syntax. However, this does not allow to generate export statements for zsh
arrays (syntax: NAME=(elem1 elem2 ...) ), which would be the natural
representation of lists in the nix language.
All default keybindings should have a default priority attached to them.
This will allow users to redefine some of the default keybindings
without using mkForce. Fixes#485.
Instead of using the hostname `%h`, which can be changed by the
~/.ssh/config file, use the commandline-given hostname `%n`.
This allows to alias a host with different hostnames, which then point
to different configurations. A common use-case for this is if you have
multiple accounts on github with each access to different private repos:
Host github.com
IdentitiesOnly yes
User git
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa
Host customer.github.com
IdentitiesOnly yes
User git
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/customer
HostName github.com
Without this change, if a connection was established with the first
github.com alias, then the user would try to pull a repo from the second
account, ssh would re-use the SSH connection which doesn't have access
to that repository.
