With this change, it's now possible to configure the default search
engine in Firefox with
programs.firefox.profiles.<name>.search.default
and add custom engines with
programs.firefox.profiles.<name>.search.engines.
It's also recommended to enable
programs.firefox.profiles.<name>.search.force = true
since Firefox will replace the symlink for the search configuration on
every launch, but note that you'll loose any existing configuration by
enabling this.
Instead of referencing the `HOME` environment variable, use the
`home.homeDirectory` option. This allows other modules to reference an
XDG user directory without having to support shell syntax.
The XDG Desktop Entry spec mentions that multiple values per key may be
optionally terminated by a semicolon. An example for this is the Firefox
desktop file, which has no trailing semicolon. This breaks the sed regex
used in `mimeAssociations`.
Fix the regex by matching the end of string, optionally preceded by a
semicolon, or any other semicolon. This makes it work with both
semicolon-terminated and non-semicolon-terminated desktop files.
In the scenario where some XDG user directory is a symlink defined by
`home.file`, we want the symlink to be created before we try to
`mkdir -p` that directory, as it will then silently succeed. On the
other hand, if we create the directory first, creating the symlink
will fail.
We lose nothing by doing this as `linkGeneration` creates the
directories it needs.
This brings a few advantages:
- Use of float instead of strings to represent float values,
- Use of structure settings, and
- Better type checking for some settings

mujmap is a tool that synchronizes mail between a mail server and
notmuch via JMAP. It's very similar to lieer, so I heavily based the
implementation of the notmuch module on lieer's. I did not include an
equivalent to lieer's periodic synchronization service, however,
because I plan to soon introduce a daemon mode to mujmap.

The user should always explicitly set the state version they wish to
use. Indeed, the configuration generated by the Home Manager install
script has set this option for a long time. This removal should
therefore not affect many users.
* Add flake.lock and clean up flake.nix
Add a lockfile to work around https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/6541
(and because it's a good idea anyway).
Also use flake-utils, and restrict ourselves to the five platforms
supported by nixpkgs. Otherwise, the IFD for nmd fails on weird
platforms. This fixes `nix flake check`.
Remove the redundant `apps` output, see https://github.com/nix-community/home-manager/pull/2442#issuecomment-1133670487
* nixos,nix-darwin: factor out into a common module
* nixos,nix-darwin: make `home-managers.users` shallowly visible
Make sure the option is included in the NixOS/nix-darwin manual (but the
HM submodule options aren't).
Also add a static description to the HM submodule type so that we don't need to
evaluate the submodules just to build the option manual. This makes
nixos-search able to index the home-manager flake.
Also clean up some TODOs.
* flake: add nmd and nmt
This avoids having to use `pkgs.fetchFromGitLab` in an IFD, which causes
issues when indexing packages with nixos-search because `pkgs` is
instantiated with every platform.
This is adapted from the `services.mopidy` NixOS module. The
difference is the setting can be configured with Nix language, taking
advantage of generators from nixpkgs. The module is also suited more
for user-specific configuration, removing the `extraConfigFiles` and
`dataDir` option.
- Change the example value of `gtk.theme.package` from
`pkgs.gnome.gnome_themes_standard` was an alias that was removed on 2022-01-13,
`pkgs.gnome-themes-extra`, which references the actual package.
- Change the example value of `gtk.icon.package` from `pkgs.adwaita-icon-theme` to
`pkgs.gnome.adwaita-icon-theme`, as this package is in the `gnome` package set.
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.
This convenience function allows automatic assignment of a package's
associations to `xdg.mimeApps.defaultApplications`.
For example,
xdg.mimeApps.defaultApplications =
config.lib.xdg.mimeAssociations [ pkgs.gnome.evince ];

Changed option types to `either str path` to allow using path values.
The related session variable is defined for the default and the extra
user directories now.
Before enabling dconf in Home Manager, dconf must be enabled in system
config.
Otherwise it will fail like this:
```
$ home-manager switch
Starting Home Manager activation
Activating checkFilesChanged
Activating checkLinkTargets
Activating writeBoundary
Activating installPackages
replacing old 'home-manager-path'
installing 'home-manager-path'
Activating dconfSettings
error: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.systemd1.NoSuchUnit: Unit dconf.service not found.
```
The conversion from `concatMapStrings` to `concatStringsSep` introduced in https://github.com/nix-community/home-manager/pull/2481
creates an unintended behavior change where the formatted config does not end in a newline.[1]
This is problematic for manipulation at the Nix level. In particular, this cause a regression in
the generation of gtk2 settings due to concatenated of the formatted config and `gtk2.extraConfig`
without a newline in between.
This commit restores `concatMapStrings` to match the previous behavior and adds a newline to
the final string for the generated gtk2 config. The test case for gtk2-basic-config
was also updated to check behavior at concatenation boundaries.

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
* gtk: add cursor theme configuration
- Added the `cursorTheme` under the gtk module.
- Added tests for the gtk3 settings file generation, and renamed
the gtk2 unit test expected file for clarity.
- Added guard against generating a blank `gtk.css` when `cfg.extraCss`
is empty.
- Replaced `concatMapStrings` calls with `concatStringsSep`. The library function
`concatMapStrings` generates an intemediate list which is then passed to
`concatStringsSep`, As we are not performing other transformation except
the addition of newlines, a direct call to `concatStringsSep` is sufficient.
- Updated description of examples to be more general "~/.config" -> "$XDG_CONFIG_HOME".
- Update helper functions `toGtk3Ini` and `formatGtk2Option` to use the library
function `boolToString` and escape the separator in the key name.
* xcursor: delegate GTK cursor settings to gtk.cursorTheme
- Added deprecation warning for GTK settings in the `xsession.cursorTheme` module.
- Modified config section to use `gtk.cursorTheme` for GTK cursor settings.
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.
Based on nixpkgs commit c4b3aa62608d592d8a983be685f7e82000f4de30
stringBool is not needed because makeDesktopItem handles converting boolean parameters to string,
and noDisplay and prefersNonDefaultGPU parameters have been added.
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.

Closes#2502
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.

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`.
