link to search.nixos.org instead of pulling package metadata out of pkgs. this
lets us cache docs of a few more modules and provides easier access to package
info from the HTML manual, but makes the manpage slightly less useful since
package description are no longer rendered.
most modules can be evaluated for their documentation in a very
restricted environment that doesn't include all of nixpkgs. this
evaluation can then be cached and reused for subsequent builds, merging
only documentation that has changed into the cached set. since nixos
ships with a large number of modules of which only a few are used in any
given config this can save evaluation a huge percentage of nixos
options available in any given config.
in tests of this caching, despite having to copy most of nixos/, saves
about 80% of the time needed to build the system manual, or about two
second on the machine used for testing. build time for a full system
config shrank from 9.4s to 7.4s, while turning documentation off
entirely shortened the build to 7.1s.
I had trouble getting programs.firejail.wrappedBinaries to have any effect on my
system (#152852), because I did not realise that "put[ting] the actual
application binary in the global environment" included adding the program
package to environment.systemPackages, and I thought that the package must be
present for this option to take effect. I have added a clarifying parenthetical
statement explicitly mentioning environment.systemPackages in this caveat.
Previously, this was only implicitly enabled if xserver.enable = true.
However, Wayland-based desktops do not require this, and so configuring
SSH_ASKPASS on a Wayland desktop becomes cumbersome. This simplifies
that by adding a new option that defaults to the old conditional.
easiest way to do this is to move the default expression out and
abstract over what is substituted into it, using a dependent value for
the default and a descriptive value for defaultText
some options have default that are best described in prose, such as
defaults that depend on the system stateVersion, defaults that are
derivations specific to the surrounding context, or those where the
expression is much longer and harder to understand than a simple text
snippet.
bcc doesn't really need kernel itself, it just cares about module path.
It's actually better to use /run/booted-system/kernel-modules/lib/modules
for two reasons:
- no need to rebuild bcc for each new kernel
- can use a newer bcc with a booted kernel that doesn't match the current
system
* less: enable by default and set LESS=-R via lesskey
* since we set PAGER=less, programs.less.enable should default to
true.
* some programs, notably git, set a custom LESS environment if none is
present. using the lesskey mechanism to set LESS=-R lets such
programs continue to run less as they see fit.
This reverts commit 0e7b4e60a8.
* less: remove use of deprecated lesskey binary format
* less: enable in environment.nix rather than less.nix

Apparently setting a variable via `environment.variables` when the same
is already present in `environment.sessionVariables` (that is merged
into the former option) creates a conflict.
For reference: this started with the change in #101274.
mkEnableOption already adds "Whether to enable" and ends with a ".", so
remove that duplication from the help text.
Also reword it slightly while at it.
Add the udev-rules file from flashrom source to the out directory. The

Also, add a module for installing flashrom and adding flashrom to udev
packages. The module can be used by setting `programs.flashrom.enable`
to `true`.

The wrapper for ssh-askpass did not pass arguments to the real
ssh-askpass, therefore the generic "Please enter your authentication
passphrase" prompt was displayed for all requests (including the key
usage confirmation requests, which don't need the passphrase), and some
important information such as the key name was not displayed.
The PAM config deployed would not check anything meaningful. Remove it
and rely on the defaults in the security.pam module to fix login with
arbitrary credentials.
Resolves: #123435
Most programs already run natively under Wayland so extraSessionCommands
isn't as important anymore. XWayland is already covered by
"programs.xwayland.enable = mkDefault true;" in the module.
This should make it easier to get started.
The xdg-desktop-portal backend for wlroots is required and one needs to
"make sure WAYLAND_DISPLAY and XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP are imported into
D-Bus." [0]

The default config.in template contains
"include @sysconfdir@/sway/config.d/*" but we've dropped it to better
support non-NixOS (which seems like a mistake in retrospect).
This restores that behaviour and extends the default configuration via
nixos.conf to fix#119445.
Note: The security configurations (security.d) where dropped entirely
(but maybe they'll return).
Since 03eaa48 added perl.withPackages, there is a canonical way to
create a perl interpreter from a list of libraries, for use in script
shebangs or generic build inputs. This method is declarative (what we
are doing is clear), produces short shebangs[1] and needs not to wrap
existing scripts.
Unfortunately there are a few exceptions that I've found:
1. Scripts that are calling perl with the -T switch. This makes perl
ignore PERL5LIB, which is what perl.withPackages is using to inform
the interpreter of the library paths.
2. Perl packages that depends on libraries in their own path. This
is not possible because perl.withPackages works at build time. The
workaround is to add `-I $out/${perl.libPrefix}` to the shebang.
In all other cases I propose to switch to perl.withPackages.

This replaces `concatStringsSep "\n"` with the proper generator to make sure
that the generated configuration file ends with a trailing `\n`, which is
required by ssmtp's picky configuration parser to take the last configuration
key into account.

* programs.neovim: init
Allows to build a proper runtime folder with after/ ftplugin/ parser/ subfolders etc.
(neo)vim expects a few different folders, for instance to load
treesitter parsers.
This PR reuses the builder from the etc module, notwithstanding the
different modes/uid/gid.
This allows to get rid of some autocmd in customRC (via proper use of
the folder hierarchy) which is a win in my opinion.
As of version 1.18.0 Appindicator support is available in the official

xss-lock needs XDG_SESSION_ID to respond to loginctl lock-session(s)

Set session to XDG_SESSION_ID when running xss-lock as a service.

GPaste ships keybindings for gnome-control-center. Those depend on GSettings schemas
but there is currently no mechanism for loading schemas other than using global ones
from $XDG_DATA_DIRS. Eventually, I want to add such mechanism but until then,
let's return the impure sessionPath option that was removed in
f63d94eba3
This adds yubikey-agent as a package and a nixos module.
On macOS, we use `wrapProgram` to set pinentry_mac as default in PATH;
on Linux we rely on the user to set their preferred pinentry in PATH.
In particular, we use a systemd override to prefix PATH to select a
chosen pinentry program if specified.
On Linux, we need libnotify to provide the notify-send utility for
desktop notifications (such as "Waiting for Yubikey touch...").
This might work on other flavors of unix, but I haven't tested.
We reuse the programs.gnupg.agent.pinentryFlavor option for
yubikey-agent, but in doing so I hit a problem: pinentryFlavour's
default value is specified in a mkDefault, but only conditionally. We
ought to be able to pick up the pinentryFlavour whether or not gpg-agent
is running. As a result, this commit moves the default value to the
definition of programs.gnupg.agent.enable.

While renaming `networking.defaultMailServer` directly to
`services.ssmtp` is shorter and probably clearer, it causes eval errors
due to the second rename (directDelivery -> enable) when using e.g. `lib.mkForce`.
For instance,
``` nix
{ lib, ... }: {
networking.defaultMailServer = {
hostName = "localhost";
directDelivery = lib.mkForce true;
domain = "example.org";
};
}
```
would break with the following (rather confusing) error:
```
error: The option value `services.ssmtp.enable' in `/home/ma27/Projects/nixpkgs/nixos/modules/programs/ssmtp.nix' is not of type `boolean'.
(use '--show-trace' to show detailed location information)
```
To quote the XDG specification:
There is a single base directory relative to which user-specific
data files should be written. This directory is defined by the\
environment variable $XDG_DATA_HOME.
Rather than adding another directory to $HOME, I think that it's better
to follow this standard to avoid a cluttered home-dir.
This reverts commit 6a756af3e7.
Currently zshenv by default only set fpath and HELPDIR without exporting them.
A parent shell would also not set those variables usually as they are shell local.
It also sources a file called set-environment but this is protected by an
environment variable called __NIXOS_SET_ENVIRONMENT_DONE. Hence any modification
done by the parent shell should persist as long as __NIXOS_SET_ENVIRONMENT_DONE
is not unset.
This behavior deviates from what we do in bashrc and breaks common setups such
as tmux/mosh or screen.

sway: refactor with a wrapper
This moves the wrapper functionality from the NixOS module to a new package
(wrapper) that wraps the original sway package (sway-unwrapped). Therefore it's
now also possible to properly use Sway on non-NixOS systems out of the box.
The new submodule for the wrapperFeatures makes it easy to extend the
functionality which should become useful in the future.
This also introduces a GTK wrapper feature to fix issues with icon/GTK themes,
e.g. when running waybar or wofi. This should also work for #67704. If not, we
might have to add some additional dependencies/arguments for this case.
A centralized list for these renames is not good because:
- It breaks disabledModules for modules that have a rename defined
- Adding/removing renames for a module means having to find them in the
central file
- Merge conflicts due to multiple people editing the central file
If no display manager is enabled this will not make any difference, but
if a Wayland compatible display manager like SDDM is enabled, a session
for Sway will be available. Therefore it does make sense to enable this
by default.
This adds the display manager integration mentioned in #57602.
This PR is part of the networking.* namespace cleanup.
ssmtp used to be configured via `networking.defaultMailServer` which is
sort of misleading since it provides options only for ssmtp. Other
dumb mail relays like nullmailer have always been living under
services.
The intent of this PR is to align ssmtp's options with those of similar
services. Specifically, two renames have been done:
* Rename `networking.defaultMailHost` to `services.ssmtp`.
* Rename `directDelivery` to `enable` because this is what it basically does.

This solves the dependency cycle in gcr alternatively so there won't be
two gnupg store paths in a standard NixOS system which has udisks2 enabled
by default.
NixOS users are expected to use the gpg-agent user service to pull in the
appropriate pinentry flavour or install it on their systemPackages and set
it in their local gnupg agent config instead.

If you want to be able to use OpenSC with ssh-agent, you need to be able
to add it to the ssh-agent whitelist. This adds an option,
agentPKCS11Whitelist, that exposes the option.
Note that I currently work around this by injecting the parameter into
the agentTimeout option:
programs.ssh.agentTimeout = "1h -P ${pkgs.opensc}/lib/opensc-pkcs11.so";
but I feel that a proper option would be better :)
This enlarges the system uid/gid range 6-fold, from 100 to 600 ids. This
is a preventative measure against running out of dynamically allocated
ids for NixOS services with isSystemUser, which should become the
preferred way of allocating uids for non-real users.
We had these set so gtk2 can discover themes properly, however we failed
realize that gtk2 already has a patch that makes it search in XDG_DATA_DIRS.
I don't believe any issue is solved by setting these.
In fact, don't create them at all because Nix does that automatically.
Also remove modules/programs/shell.nix because everything it did is
now done automatically by Nix.
That's one of my itches - when I'm sshing from Emacs' term to a NixOS
machine, it doesn't detect that I'm running emacs and showing a title
escape sequence. This commit fixes it, checking against $TERM to
prevent this from ever bothering anyone again.
Previously, we were only adding profile-relative paths to XDG_CONFIG_DIRS
variable. That required very ugly hacks like
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/33282#issuecomment-524550842
to be able to configure XDG stuff.
Now, we are prepending the variable with /etc/xdg, allowing us to
simply use `environment.etc."xdg/…"` options.
For a long time, TRAMP has not worked with ZSH NixOS servers. I
thought I fixed this in 0740f57e63af61694d14796286cb9204, but now
realize that was only half the problem. For TRAMP to start working
again ‘unsetopt zle’ was needed, otherwise the connection would hang.
In addition, I have a few more settings added that can apparenty
interfere with these settings.
This module obsoletes services.gnome3.gnome-terminal-server
as that's a confusing option for users, and sounds internal.
It's much simpler to have a gnome-terminal module.
This change is needed because the order of profiles correlate to the
order in PATH, therefore "/etc/profiles/per-user/$USER" always appeared
after the system packages directories.
This commit brings a module that installs the
IBM Spectrum Protect (Tivoli Storage Manager)
command-line client together with its
system-wide client system-options file `dsm.sys`.
Fixes the broken metrics evaluation which was caused by a `trace`
warning in stdout which confused `jq` in `pkgs/top-level/metrics.nix`.
Also made the `bind-device` feature optional as suggested after the
merge.
5404595b55 relocated code but kept
one backslah too many, leading to
$ tmux
error creating /run/user/$(id -u)/tmux-1000 (No such file or directory)
/run/user/$UID/ is created by pam_systemd(3) which also populates
XD_RUNTIME_DIR with that value.
Alternatively, TMUX_TMPDIR might simply default to XDG_RUNTIME_DIR
without providing the same directory yet again as default string in
parameter substitution, however such behaviour change is subject to
another patch.
In fact, with `security.polkit.enable = false` systemd_logind(8) fails
to start and /run/user/$UID/ is never created for unprivileged users
in proper login sessions; XDG_RUNTIME_DIR would consequently not be
set either.
Removing the fallback to /run/user/$UID/ would have caused TMUX_TMPDIR
to be empty, which in turn would lead tmux(1) to use /tmp/. This
effectively breaks the idea of isolated sockets entirely while hiding
errors from the user.
The clickshare-csc1 package brings a udev rule file
to grant access to the ClickShare dongle if connected.
This module provides an option to install that rule file.
Only users in the "clickshare" users group have access.
* Don't use `literalExample`, raw Nix values can directly be specified
as an option example which provides support for highlighting in the
manual as well.
* Escape shell args for `extraOptions`: I.e. the `-n` option might be
problematic as a longer notification command might be misinterpreted.
The module installs `zmap` globally and links the config files to
`/etc/zmap`, the default location of config files for zmap.
The package provides pretty much a sensitive default, custom configs can
be created like this:
```
{ lib, ... }:
{
environment.etc."zmap/blacklist.conf" = lib.mkForce {
text = ''
# custom zmap blacklist
0.0.0.0/0
'';
};
}
```
This change will load all configuration files from /etc, to make it easy
to override them, but fallback to /nix/store/.../etc/sway/config to make
Sway work out-of-the-box with the default configuration on non NixOS
systems.
This allows non-declarative users to change their login shells.
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/41966 will make this possible
for declarative users as well if the system config explicitly allows it.
See https://github.com/browserpass/browserpass-native/issues/31
Additionally browserpass was removed from systemPackages, because it
doesn't need to be installed, browsers will get the path to the binary
from the native messaging host JSON.
Just set them normally.
Exporting them will propagate them to all executed programs
such as bash (as used by nix-shell or nix run),
and badness ensues when different formats are used.
This commit contains the following changes:
- nixos/sway: Remove the beta references
- sway: Drop buildDocs
- nixos/sway: Improve the documentation
- sway,nixos/sway: Adapt Sway to NixOS
- Copy the default configuration file to /etc/sway/config (Sway will
still load the identical file from the Nix store but this makes it
easier to copy the default configuration file).
- This will also remove all references to the Nix store from the
default configuration file as they will eventually be garbage
collected which is a problem if the user copies it.
- I've also decided to drop the default wallpaper (alternatively we
could copy it to a fixed location).
- nixos/sway: Drop the package option
This is the result of executing:
git mv -f pkgs/applications/window-managers/sway/beta.nix pkgs/applications/window-managers/sway/default.nix
git mv -f nixos/modules/programs/sway-beta.nix nixos/modules/programs/sway.nix
And removing sway-beta from the following files:
pkgs/top-level/all-packages.nix
nixos/modules/module-list.nix
Otherwise, the standard options (e.g. AddressFamily) cannot be overriden
in extraConfig, as the option is applied on the first (not most
specific) match. Closes#52267
