#homemanager — Public Fediverse posts

A new module is available: 'programs.t3code'. T3 Code is a minimal web GUI for coding agents; the module installs the application and can manage its JSON settings in '~/.t3/userdata/'.

A new option is available: `programs.microsoft-edge`. Microsoft Edge is now supported by the Chromium-based browser module, sharing the same `commandLineArgs`, `extensions`, `dictionaries` and `nativeMessagingHosts` interface. Note: the `microsoft-edge` package in nixpkgs is only available on `x86_64-linux`. On macOS, install Edge through other means (e.g. the official `.pkg` installer) and set `programs.microsoft-edge.package = null` to manage configuration files only, or supply a custom darwin-compatible package.

Six years ago, I wrote about you, and it's even more relevant and widely embraced today!

NixOS Home Manager users may find this useful!

It lets you have .desktop files, basically shortcuts, to any application you can run via nix, without actually having to install them. They're pulled in at runtime, using the same magic as you use when doing nix run.

A month ago I wanted to switch to #Helix and immersed myself in #HomeManager, #Flakes, #sops-nix, and #colmena. Today, after a long redesign of my #NixOS module structure, I successfully applied colmena to the first test node. Twelve more will follow. This OS is wild.

I did the switch, from macos to linux. Finally happy with the tweaks of a #nixos system running on a #framework 12" laptop. Did switch to use #homemanager as well, and I like it so far.

Initially I had hope to replace the ipad for note taking and similar. Now I think that it will also be my main notebook for working.

Wrote up how I manage dotfiles across macOS and Linux with Nix. One repo, one flake.lock — same shell, editor, and tools on every machine. Home Manager and nix-darwin do the heavy lifting.

#fzf lets you fuzzy find and select files with `ctrl-t`. I created this little #fish snippet that lets you do the same for directories with `alt-t`:

Hey, actually vicinae started working since I updated my nixos yesterday. 😂 LoL

I use unstable branch for everything from nixos to homemanager.
#vicinae #launcher #nixos #homemanager #nixhomemanager

@rgo
I tried vicinae launcher. It's consumption around 400 mb, but I guess it's fine for me. But for some reason the launcher isn't working in my nixos home manager option though enabling the systemd option too🥹. Even when tried running manually, it shows some socket error.

Edit:
It started working perfectly after this post. LoL 😆

Tried setting up nix plasma-manager today.

Just added a basic config now. Powerdevil and panels are yet to be added. For panels I think I should use something like #waybar or something else. (Suggest some waybar like thing which is both lightweight and aesthetically good).

Also anyone using #nix #plasma-manager? Would love to see ur configs if possible for reference😅.

And also trying the #xremap tool for shortcuts management 😅

Usually i am pretty amazed how much time i save while configuring my systems with NixOS/HomeManager. But this time i am trying to set up mbsync/mu/mu4e stack and i think some options are scattered all over.

I got a basic setup running now, but where do i put for example the inbox path if it differs from defaults?

#NixOS #HomeManager #Emacs #mu4e #MBSync

@noodle
Git clone my-nixos-config-repo && cd myrepo
&& nh os switch -a .
That's all.
I'll go chill and then come back after sometime and it'll be in the state I have configured along with my home manager including all my ricing, dotfiles etc down to the exact version I have mentioned in my config.

Thank You @leona for having gotten me started with #Nix #HomeManager during #NixCon in Rapperswil today!

#nixos is so cool. I am currently writing my own #homeManager module for #jrnl because I want to try it out, but also sync it (with #syncthing) and ensure that calls to the jrnl binary are not added to my #atuin driven history. I can just write that module and have it on all my hosts easily. How awesome is that?

@abbra Sorry for the late reply, missed your toot.

Is there really no way to create a directory at runtime anymore? Creating and maintaining a container image where the only difference is a symlink seems a little tedious.

I already tried tmpfiles.d, but either I did it wrong or it runs too late in the boot process and the root filesystem is already read-only...

#fedora #composefs #kinoite #silverblue #nix #HomeManager

It would be really nice to have my personal configs for #Helix, #Neovim, or #Codium in my #homemanager config, but also let a #devshell provide extra config specific to that repo.

Any ideas on how something like this could be achieved?

I am currently in the process of setting up my new machine using #nixos #flakes #nixvim #homemanager #plasmamanager and it is glorious!

Cannot wait seeing my whole infra switched to that new setup.

Actually, #HEVC doesn’t work either, using #x264 instead. I don’t really understand why they don’t work since from what I’ve read they should have wide support. 🤔

Been learning more #NixOS including #HomeManager so I can set it up as automated as possible. I’m considering learning setting NixOS up to pull the transcode script straight from a #Git repo, that would be cool!

That script now works on the #RaspberryPi 4. My current challenge is setting up #Nix to run it when the machine turns on with #SystemD.

I can’t really get SystemD to do anything at all, which is frustrating. Not sure what I’m doing wrong. 😑 Once that works though I think the system is operational!

Does using #nix and its #homemanager #packagemanager in #ubuntu with e.g. #gnome make the #packages installed available as icons on the #desktop when the user, for whom the packages & home manager has been set up, logs into the machine? Or is it only available on the command line of that user? (I mean the process shown in this video which is command line only #cli )

Today i had a little styling session for my #terminal stuff. I chose a #catppuccin mocha spinoff.
#HelixEditor: it was easy, well-documented, but alot of stuff to do
#Alacritty: i just copied over a config from #TOML to #Nix
#Zellij: same as alacritty
#GiTUI: i copied a .ron file via #HomeManager , which worked, but my colors are borked (the "button" colors are unreadable)

Have to invest some more time, maybe i can try to improve the docs @rusticorn ?

Switched my #Nix installation on #macOS from the original installer to the one by @determinatesystems. Since that one disables channels in favor of flakes by default, I also took the opportunity to use Nix more properly instead of just running `nix-env -i` when needed :'-)

Ended up looking at #nixDarwin, #HomeManager and #Fleek. To a complete newb like me the differences where rather hard to grasp

nix-darwin tries to replicate the feel of #NixOS on macOS – something I couldn't comprehend since I never ran NixOS. More generally though, in NixOS, Nix is used to manage the whole OS (duh) and defines the system-wide installed/configured packages/environment. As such, nix-darwin replicates this style of providing a system environment on macOS.

home-manager shifts this concept to a per-user basis. The configuration system is quite similar, just per-user.

#Fleek is a Go tool to generate home-manager configurations from YAML.

Now, you can also install home-manager as a nix-darwin (on macOS) or NixOS (on... NixOS) module, which allows upgrades of the homes through the system wide Nix upgrade process.

I'm having a problem trying to install GraalVM on my NixOS that already has OpenJDK.

The core of the problem is a collision between graalvm/bin/jhsdb and openjdk/bin/jhsdb.

Does anyone knows how to solve collisions in NixOS?

I'm using home manager version 23.05-pre.

My current issue with #nix, #nixOS and #HomeManager: I think I see their point how they solve some issues I'm facing. I may want to be there but I don't want to invest the energy to actually go there.

Furthermore, there seems to be a chaotic-looking heap of concepts that are hard to initially understand and keep them apart.

If I'd be in my twenties, I may have started with that ecosystem, embracing its style and concepts. 😔

@HackerGeno, #WTFeG ?

I'm sitting outside for a bit. Nice shadowy place next place next to the waffle tent.

We don't know each other (I don't know anyone here), but I guess that can change ;-)
