The default value for `xsession.windowManager.herbstluftwm.tags` is an
empty list, but the config file uses `builtins.head` on it, which causes
an error upon evaluation. With this change the tags configuration is
skipped if the list is empty.
Depending on DHCP settings you might end up with different output from
running `hostname`. Eg, your local hostname is `mylaptop`, and your
home router is configured with a local domain of `.hoome.arpa`. In
this case:
$ hostname
mylaptop.home.arpa
$ hostname -s
mylaptop
If you then go to cafe which has its router configured with `.lan` as
its local domain. Then, if your DHCP settings accept the local domain
from the router,
$ hostname
myalaptop.lan
$ hostname -s
mylaptop
With the pre-existing behaviour, if you had a
`"me@mylaptop.home.arpa"` entry in `outputs.homeConfigurations`,
running `home-manager switch` would fail:
$ home-manager switch
error: flake 'git+file:///home/me/.config/nixpkgs' does not provide
attribute 'packages.aarch64-darwin.homeConfigurations."me".activationPackage',
'legacyPackages.aarch64-darwin.homeConfigurations."me".activationPackage'
or 'homeConfigurations."me".activationPackage'
After this commit, you can put configuration in a `"me@mylaptop"`
entry in `outputs.homeConfigurations`, and everything will work on
either network.
The previous variant used IFD to generate the `JAVA_HOME` variable and relied on internal hooks of the `java` package, this failed for a user cross compiling their configuration.
This PR changes that and uses the `home` attribute, as documented in the very last sentence of the https://nixos.org/manual/nixpkgs/stable/#sec-language-java chapter.
The old trigger would actually never cause a restart since the path
doesn't change. With this change the trigger is now using the actual
configuration path in the Nix store, which depends on the content.
While this is created to match `himalaya`’s configuration API, this
could easly be reused for other programs that consume the email module
by concatination the strings.
The previous version linked the file into home, then sourced that. Since
nothing else expects that file to be there, this is unnecessary.
Additionally, doing so made it impossible to test a built config without
switching, e.g. using `XDG_CONFIG_HOME=… nvim` or `nvim -u`. This
remedies that, at least for this particular reference.
To test this, change from asserting contents of the config file to
actually starting nvim, outputting sentinel values, and then asserting
their values are present. This way it’s tested that nvim loaded the
config, rather than that some config is in a specific place.
This is all in one commit as the test, as written now, would not have
worked before since the previously hard-coded home path was not an
actual file in the test environment.
Specifically, inform the command about the absolute path of
dbus-daemon. Otherwise it will try running dbus-daemon from PATH,
which may not always work.
PR #3405
* ssh: add generic Match support for matchBlocks
Introduce conservative support for actual `Match`
blocks in ssh config.
"Conservative" means this PR doesn'tt try to process
the `match` expression and simply uses it as a string
provided by the user.
If set, `match` has precedence over `host` meaning
if both are set, `match` is used and `host` is ignored.

* flake: Expose tests to allow running purely
The existing way to run tests with `nix-shell` relies on impure usage of
`<nixpkgs>`. This can lead to failures when the local nixpkgs is
incompatible with the locked one. I.e., where CI is passing but a
contributor may experience a failure.
So, expose tests as `devShells.tests` to use the locked nixpkgs and
allow easy invocation via `nix develop`.
* tests: Remove impure path
With Nix 2.10+ and pure evaluation mode e.g.
```
nix run nixpkgs/nixos-unstable#nixVersions.nix_2_10 -- develop -i .#tests.zplug-modules
```
this test would fail with:
> error: the path '~/.customZplugHome' can not be resolved in pure mode
Since the test only cares that it is a path, rather than anything about
its contents, use a dummy empty directory.
