This was causing a lot of issues unfortunately presumably due to things
not working with the aarch64 PinePhone system. Random errors like
"expected string 'D'" were common and I'd rather use a separate flake to
make things easier to debug and keep evaluation times to a minimum.
Note that using a separate fork is necessary since overlaying flakes
seems to be non-trivial here.
Also note that previously the nixpkgs hyprland was being started from
greetd. This fixes that.
Avoids having a separate home module just for packages and makes
essential tooling accessible in all shells.
Note that the legacy `texlive.combined.scheme-full` was replaced with
`texliveFull` in this commit.
Necessary since we take advantage of newer hypridle and hyprlock
modules while sticking with an older version of nixpkgs to avoid issues
with newer versions of hyprland and ironbar.
Breakage may have been influenced by a dependency but seems to occur
with various combinations of hyprland and ironbar.
- hyprland v0.39.1 + ironbar v0.14.1
- hyprland v0.39.1 + ironbar master
- hyprland master + ironbar master
It turns out that I'd rather have a battery indicator than having to
`cat /sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/capacity` all the time.
Depends on upower and results in the battery indicator always being
shown even when virtualized.
2.0 introduces some kind of breaking change that results in the cursor
appearing larger than usual, which I haven't been able to find an answer
for. The 1.1 cursor has been great already, so I'll probably stick with
that until further notice.
Not needed since we can just reference the background directly instead.
Note that the linking actually occurs in the modules for the DEs that
add backgrounds since it isn't part of the defaults.
Simplifies things a bit since my target audience includes those
interested in the Japanese language. Opinionated defaults like this
makes it easier for end-users to be immediately productive without
having to spend time configuring things.
Unfortunately command-not-found only works for channels and doesn't have
first-class support for flakes yet, and nix-index takes forever to build
the database on slower machines, so I'd rather just disable this by
default.
Seems like an alright categorization for now since dual-function-keys
can be used without a desktop environment, although realistically the
tty is impractical for things like CJK.
This makes it easier to ensure that the system has our network settings
such as random mac addresses. This makes sense since networking in
general is related to the system.
This isn't *perfect*, but it does make it possible to share files
between the guest and the host without having to imperatively create a
directory that may or may not exist on other systems.
It may be useful to add hashedPasswordFile in the future, although from
my testing it was possible to rebuild a VM that used a cached derivation
with the old password.
Ideally your main form of authentication is through LUKS encryption or
SSH keys anyway, and this password should solely be used for sudo
purposes.
Not really necessary anymore since I no longer test home-specific stuff
inside the virtual machine.
It would be nice if there was a way to create a temporary directory on
the fly (such as one in /tmp) that could be mounted and used for sharing
files between the virtual machine and the host.
Note that we will continue to use nixpkgs-fmt for the time being here
since nixfmt-rfc-style breaks string syntax highlighting and comments
like `/* this */` get turned into `# this`.
The conversion from lisp-like formatting to something else in flake.nix
is a bit unfortunate, but I'd rather have a singular style for the
entire code base to make things easier.
This increases boot times quite a bit so I'd rather use tmpfs as /tmp
where possible. Note that this defaults to cleaning /tmp anyway since
I'd rather clean /tmp than not do so at all.
For future reference, the message that gets shown is the following:
"A start job is running for Create Volatile Files and Directories"
This change makes it possible to use this nix-config in all the
different ways imaginable (containers, bare metal, tests, and as a
separate flake input) *without* running into infinite recursion
issues with self.
It does this by using a trick similar to JavaScript in which
`var self = this;`, thus enabling the usage of "this" (or self, in
Nix's case) where it wouldn't otherwise be possible.
Note that this *only* works if the input for this repository is named
nix-config. This makes it impractical to combine with multiple
configurations that employ the same strategy.
This change makes it possible to import the modules that are required
from the flake inputs in the output modules themselves, thus preventing
users from having to manually import those modules.
This simplifies things overall and was made possible by the specialArgs
option that allowed these flake inputs to be passed into our container.
Realistically this might be more related to "system" than shell, however
it may also be advantageous to keep system as minimal as possible since
it could also be argued that interpreted programming languages are a
part of the system.
This is just a proof of concept that I plan to integrate into NixOS
containers running specific users. The ensureDBOwnership part would no
longer be needed since each database would receive its own container
and consequently user.
Now it's possible to use whatever username you want for your system. The
default value of "user" is good if you're concerned about information
disclosure attacks through things like the username being visible in
logs or other output.
