Settings to write to the dconf configuration system.

Note that the database is strongly-typed so you need to use the same types as described in the GSettings schema. For example, if an option is of type uint32 (u), you need to wrap the number using the lib.hm.gvariant.mkUint32 constructor. Otherwise, since Nix integers are implicitly coerced to int32 (i), it would get stored in the database as such, and GSettings might be confused when loading the setting.

You might want to use dconf2nix to convert dconf database dumps into compatible Nix expression.

Determines whether to check for release version mismatch between Home Manager and Nixpkgs. Using mismatched versions is likely to cause errors and unexpected behavior. It is therefore highly recommended to use a release of Home Manager than corresponds with your chosen release of Nixpkgs.

Declared by:

Declared by:

The activation scripts blocks to run when activating a Home Manager generation. Any entry here should be idempotent, meaning running twice or more times produces the same result as running it once.

If the script block produces any observable side effect, such as writing or deleting files, then it must be placed after the special writeBoundary script block. Prior to the write boundary one can place script blocks that verifies, but does not modify, the state of the system and exits if an unexpected state is found. For example, the checkLinkTargets script block checks for collisions between non-managed files and files defined in home.file.

A script block should respect the DRY_RUN variable, if it is set then the actions taken by the script should be logged to standard out and not actually performed. The variable DRY_RUN_CMD is set to echo if dry run is enabled.

A script block should also respect the VERBOSE variable, and if set print information on standard out that may be useful for debugging any issue that may arise. The variable VERBOSE_ARG is set to --verbose if verbose output is enabled.

Default: { }

Example:

{
  myActivationAction = lib.hm.dag.entryAfter ["writeBoundary"] ''

Cursor configuration. Set to null to disable.

Top-level options declared under this submodule are backend independent options. Options declared under namespaces such as x11 are backend specific options. By default, only backend independent cursor configurations are generated. If you need configurations for specific backends, you can toggle them via the enable option. For example, home.pointerCursor.x11.enable will enable x11 cursor configurations.

Type: null or (submodule)

Default: null

Whether to enable gtk config generation for home.pointerCursor .

"${home.homeDirectory}/.nix-profile"  or
"/etc/profiles/per-user/${home.username}"

Declared by:

Extra directories to add to PATH.

These directories are added to the PATH variable in a double-quoted context, so expressions like $HOME are expanded by the shell. However, since expressions like ~ or * are escaped, they will end up in the PATH verbatim.

Type: list of string

Default: [ ]

Example:

[
  "$HOME/.local/bin"
  "\${xdg.configHome}/emacs/bin"
  ".git/safe/../../bin"
]

Declared by:

Environment variables to always set at login.

The values may refer to other environment variables using POSIX.2 style variable references. For example, a variable parameter may be referenced as $parameter or ${parameter}. A default value foo may be given as per ${parameter:-foo} and, similarly, an alternate value bar can be given as per ${parameter:+bar}.

Note, these variables may be set in any order so no session variable may have a runtime dependency on another session variable. In particular code like

home.sessionVariables = {
  FOO = "Hello";
  BAR = "$FOO World!";
};

may not work as expected. If you need to reference another session variable, then do so inside Nix instead. The above example then becomes

home.sessionVariables = {
  FOO = "Hello";
  BAR = "${config.home.sessionVariables.FOO} World!";
};

Type: lazy attribute set of (string or path or signed integer or floating point number)

Default: { }

This option should only be used to manage simple aliases that are compatible across all shells. If you need to use a shell specific feature then make sure to use a shell specific option, for example programs.bash.shellAliases for Bash.

Type: attribute set of string

Default: { }

Example:

{
  g = "git";
  "..." = "cd ../..";
}

Declared by:

It is occasionally necessary for Home Manager to change configuration defaults in a way that is incompatible with stateful data. This could, for example, include switching the default data format or location of a file.

The state version indicates which default settings are in effect and will therefore help avoid breaking program configurations. Switching to a higher state version typically requires performing some manual steps, such as data conversion or moving files.

Type: one of "18.09", "19.03", "19.09", "20.03", "20.09", "21.03", "21.05", "21.11", "22.05", "22.11", "23.05", "23.11"

Type: null or boolean

Default: null

Declared by:

This optional key specifies that launchd should adjust its log mask temporarily to LOG_DEBUG while dealing with this job.

Type: null or boolean

Default: null

Declared by:

This optional key is used as a hint to launchctl(1) that it should not submit this job to launchd when loading a job or jobs. The value of this key does NOT reflect the current state of the job on the running system. If you wish to know whether a job is loaded in launchd, reading this key from a configuration file yourself is not a sufficient test. You should query launchd for the presence of the job using the launchctl(1) list subcommand or use the ServiceManagement framework's SMJobCopyDictionary() method. Note that as of Mac OS X v10.6, this key's value in a configuration file conveys a default value, which is changed with the [-w] option of the launchctl(1) load and unload subcommands. These subcommands no longer modify the configuration file, so the value displayed in the configuration file is not necessarily the value that launchctl(1) will apply. See launchctl(1) for more information. Please also be mindful that you should only use this key if the provided on-demand and KeepAlive criteria are insufficient to describe the conditions under which your job needs to run. The cost to have a job loaded in launchd is negligible, so there is no harm in loading a job which only runs once or very rarely.

Type: null or boolean

Default: null

Declared by:

This flag causes launchd to use the glob(3) mechanism to update the program arguments before invocation.

Type: null or boolean

Default: null

Declared by:

This flag instructs launchd that the job promises to use vproc_transaction_begin(3) and vproc_transaction_end(3) to track outstanding transactions that need to be reconciled before the process can safely terminate. If no outstanding transactions are in progress, then launchd is free to send the SIGKILL signal.

This optional key is used to specify additional environment variables to be set before running the job.

Type: null or (attribute set of string)

Default: null
