The `optionsDocBook` function is deprecated in nixpkgs since nixos-23.11. This commit updates the manual and manpages to use commonmark formatted documentation instead of the deprecated docbook format.

# Installing Home Manager {#ch-installation}
|
|
|
|
Home Manager can be used in three primary ways:
|
|
|
|
1. Using the standalone `home-manager` tool. For platforms other than
|
|
NixOS and Darwin, this is the only available choice. It is also
|
|
recommended for people on NixOS or Darwin that want to manage their
|
|
home directory independently of the system as a whole. See
|
|
[Standalone installation](#sec-install-standalone) for instructions
|
|
on how to perform this installation.
|
|
|
|
2. As a module within a NixOS system configuration. This allows the
|
|
user profiles to be built together with the system when running
|
|
`nixos-rebuild`. See [NixOS module](#sec-install-nixos-module) for a
|
|
description of this setup.
|
|
|
|
3. As a module within a
|
|
[nix-darwin](https://github.com/LnL7/nix-darwin/) system
|
|
configuration. This allows the user profiles to be built together
|
|
with the system when running `darwin-rebuild`. See [nix-darwin
|
|
module](#sec-install-nix-darwin-module) for a description of this
|
|
setup.
|
|
|
|
:::{.note}
|
|
In this chapter we describe how to install Home Manager in the standard
|
|
way using channels. If you prefer to use [Nix
|
|
Flakes](https://nixos.wiki/wiki/Flakes) then please see the instructions
|
|
in [nix flakes](#ch-nix-flakes).
