Nix permits user level configurations through ~/.config/nix/nix.conf that allow
customization of system-wide settings and behavior. This is beneficial in chroot
environments and for per-user configurations. System level Nix configurations in the
form of /etc/nix/nix.conf can be specified declaratively via the NixOS nix module but as
of currently no counter part exists in home-manager.
This PR is a port of the RFC42 implementation for the NixOS nix module[1]
to home-manager. Non-applicable options have been excluded and the config generation
backends have been tweaked to the backends offered by home-manager. A notable change
from the NixOS module is a mandatory option to specify the Nix binary corresponding
to the version "nix.conf" should be generated against. This is necessary because
the validation phase is dependent on the `nix show-config` subcommand on the host platform.
While it is possible to avoid validation entirely, the lack of type checking was deemed too significant.
In NixOs, the version information can be retrieved from the `package` option itself which
declares the Nix binary system-wide. However in home-manager, there is no pure way to
detect the system Nix version and what state version the "nix.conf" should be generated
against. Thus an option is used to overcome this limitation by forcing the user to
specify the Nix package. Note this interaction can still be automated by forwarding
the system-wide Nix package to the home-manager module if needed.
Three unit tests were added to test the module behavior for the empty settings, the example
settings and the example registry configurations respectively.
[1] - NixOS/nixpkgs#139075
This has no effect if the user does not have any aliases defined for
any accounts.
This will also only add `--my-address=` to only accounts that are
enabled to be tracked by mu.
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.
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.
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).
* screen-locker: Make xautolock optional, reorganize options
xautolock isn't really needed to trigger xss-lock on the basis of time
since the built-in screensaver functionality of X serves as one of the
event sources for xss-lock. Keeping it around and defaulting to
"enabled" to avoid unexpected breakage.
Also shuffled around the options to submodules for xss-lock and
xautolock to get rid of prefixes in option names and to make
enableDetectSleep a bit clearer.
* screen-locker: update maintainership
* tests/screen-locker: Stub i3lock and xss-lock
* screen-locker: add package options for xss-lock and xautolock
This option provides a more convenient way to overlay dummy packages.
It also adds a function `config.lib.test.mkStubPackage` that can,
e.g., be used for `package` options.
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
configuration and the example configuration.
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.
* bspwm: various improvements
- fixes shell escaping issues and general style issues
- allow reloading the config on-the-fly by exposing bspwmrc to the user
* bspwm: add configuration test
- Add support for showing bold as bright colors
- Add support to configure the background transparency
- Fix the scrollOnOutput, it was not being dumped to the config
- Add tests!
- Add myself as maintainer
* irssi: add ssl_cert option for servers
I was following these instructions
https://www.oftc.net/NickServ/CertFP/
and found that the `/server add -ssl_cert` option was needed.
This patch therefore adds an optional
`programs.irssi.networks.<name>.server.ssl.certificateFile` path.
Perhaps this could also be done with a `settings` attribute, but that
would probably require most of this module to be reworked.
* irsii: Add example-settings test case
`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`.
* htop: add some missing meters
* htop: replace individual options with 'settings'
Deprecate all options and introduce `settings` for setting htop configuration
values in Nix configuration.
Use `lib.htop` to provide `fields` and `modes` for easy access to htop's integer
configuration. And `leftMeters` and `rightMeters` functions for building the
separate `*_meters` and `*_meter_modes` attributes.
* htop: add release-notes 21.05 entry
* htop: improve deprecation warnings
Move default configuration into `settings` and make deprecated options default
to `null`. Print deprecation warnings for any option that is non-null --
i.e. only show warnings for explicitly specified deprecated options.
* htop: make self code owner of module
* release notes: fix invalid programs.htop xref
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.
`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.
This allows you to set a theme for Qt applications. For example, if you
want to use `adwaita-qt` theme to have uniform look between Gtk and Qt
applications, you can use it like this:
```nix
{
qt = {
enable = true;
platformTheme = "gnome";
style = {
name = "adwaita";
package = pkgs.adwaita-qt;
};
};
}
```
Closes issue #1725.
This allows mpv module to be customized with support for more advanced
features than the `programs.mpv.scripts` current support. For example,
with this change now this is possible:
```nix
{
programs.mpv.package = (pkgs.wrapMpv (pkgs.mpv-unwrapped.override {
vapoursynthSupport = true;
}) {
extraMakeWrapperArgs = [
"--prefix" "LD_LIBRARY_PATH" ":" "${pkgs.vapoursynth-mvtools}/lib/vapoursynth"
];
});
}
```
Since `programs.mpv.package` doesn't necessary reflect the final
derivation anymore (see #1524), we introduce `programs.mpv.finalPackage`
that has the resulting derivation.
This includes 2 tests:
- One to check if everything is alright with mpv
- Other to validate our assertion that package and scripts can't be
passed both at the same time
* docs: document recent mpv module changes
* mpv: add thiagokokada as maintainer
This adds a "test.asserts" module that currently just provides a
convenient way to assert on the content of warnings. By default all
tests will assert that no warnings are given.
This test requires copying the Home Manager checkout to the Nix store,
which seems to require too much memory for the CI jobs. Instead simply
run the format script directly.
In feh you can bind multiple keys to the same action, but Home Manager
only let you set a single key to an action. You can cheat and pass a
string with space-separated keys, but with this change you can pass a
list for each action to bind multiple keys to it.
Also adds a couple of tests.
Fixes#1366
* neovim: allow setting init.vim config alongside plugins
* neovim: add test for neovim plugins
* neovim: make pluginWithConfigType a have type submodule
The apropos software is useful to get a list of manpages matching a
description or to get a list of all manpages. The latter feature is
used by Emacs to get manpage completion (`M-x man`).
To have apropos working, a database of all available manpages must be
built with mandb. This is what this commits does.
A similar change was done for NixOS:
edc6a76cc0
Adds a new `keybindings` option to the `vscode` configuration.
It contains a list of key bindings, which will be written to
`%vscode-dir%/User/keybindings.json`.
PR #1351
Add 'services.emacs.socketActivation.enable' for generating an
'emacs.socket' systemd unit.
Emacs since version 26 has supported socket activation, whereby an
external process manager such as systemd listens on a socket and passes
it to the Emacs daemon when the manager launches it. This improves
startup time of the user session and avoids launching the daemon when not
needed, for example when launching the user session via SSH.
This implementation hard-codes the socket path to the default for the
version of 'programs.emacs.finalPackage', because systemd does not
perform shell expansion in the socket unit's 'ListenStream' parameter
and it seems like an advanced use-case to change the socket path. Shell
expansion would be desirable as the socket path usually resides in
directories such as $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR or $TMPDIR.
Tests were added to verify behavior in the following cases:
- Emacs service with socket activation disabled
- Emacs 26 with socket activation enabled
- Emacs 27 with socket activation enabled
