Hello! This is a news entry and it represents an
experimental new feature of Home Manager. The idea is to
inform you when something of importance happens in Home
Manager or its modules.
We will try to not disturb you about the same news more than
once so the next time you run
home-manager switch
or
home-manager build
it should not notify you about this text again.
News items may be conditional and will then only show if the
condition holds, for example if they are relevant to your
configuration.
If you want to see all relevant news then please use the
home-manager news
command.
Since this is an experimental feature any positive or
negative feedback would be greatly appreciated. For example,
by commenting in https://git.io/v5BJL.

directory. That is, unless `XDG_CONFIG_HOME` is configured
otherwise, the assignment
xdg.configFile.hello.text = "hello world";

Most modules in Home Manager that previously were hard coded
to write configuration to '$HOME/.config' now use this
option and will therefore honor the XDG configuration
directory.

It is now possible to use Home Manager as a NixOS module.
This allows you to prepare user environments from the system
configuration file, which often is more convenient than
using the 'home-manager' tool. It also opens up additional
possibilities, for example, to automatically configure user
environments in NixOS declarative containers or on systems
deployed through NixOps.
This feature should be considered experimental for now and
some critial limitations apply. For example, it is currently
not possible to use 'nixos-rebuild build-vm' when using the
Home Manager NixOS module. That said, it should be
reasonably robust and stable for simpler use cases.
To make Home Manager available in your NixOS system
configuration you can add
imports = [
"''${builtins.fetchTarball https://github.com/rycee/home-manager/archive/master.tar.gz}/nixos"
];
to your 'configuration.nix' file. This will introduce a new
NixOS option called 'home-manager.users' whose type is an
attribute set mapping user names to Home Manager
configurations.
For example, a NixOS configuration may include the lines
users.users.eve.isNormalUser = true;
home-manager.users.eve = {
home.packages = [ pkgs.atool pkgs.httpie ];
programs.bash.enable = true;
};
and after a 'nixos-rebuild switch' the user eve's
environment should include a basic Bash configuration and
the packages atool and httpie.
More detailed documentation on the intricacies of this new
feature is slowly forthcoming.

The option 'programs.rofi.colors' is still supported but may
