Preface

This manual will eventually describe how to install, use, and extend Home Manager.

The solution is typically to uninstall the package from the environment using nix-env --uninstall and reattempt the Home Manager generation switch.

You could also opt to unistall all of the packages from your profile with nix-env --uninstall '*'.

6.2. Why are the session variables not set?

Home Manager is only able to set session variables automatically if it manages your Bash, Z shell, or fish shell configuration. If you don’t want to let Home Manager manage your shell then you will have to manually source the ~/.nix-profile/etc/profile.d/hm-session-vars.sh file in an appropriate way. In Bash and Z shell this can be done by adding

. "$HOME/.nix-profile/etc/profile.d/hm-session-vars.sh"

to your .profile and .zshrc files, respectively. The hm-session-vars.sh file should work in most Bourne-like shells. For fish shell, it is possible to source it using the foreign-env plugin

fenv source "$HOME/.nix-profile/etc/profile.d/hm-session-vars.sh" > /dev/null

6.3. How to set up a configuration for multiple users/machines?

A typical way to prepare a repository of configurations for multiple logins and machines is to prepare one "top-level" file for each unique combination.

For example, if you have two machines, called "kronos" and "rhea" on which you want to configure your user "jane" then you could create the files

6.2. Why are the session variables not set?

Home Manager is only able to set session variables automatically if it manages your Bash, Z shell, or fish shell configuration. To enable such management you use programs.bash.enable, programs.zsh.enable, or programs.fish.enable.

If you don’t want to let Home Manager manage your shell then you will have to manually source the ~/.nix-profile/etc/profile.d/hm-session-vars.sh file in an appropriate way. In Bash and Z shell this can be done by adding

. "$HOME/.nix-profile/etc/profile.d/hm-session-vars.sh"
