 mewp | I wouldn't want to have a devshell in a repository separate from the app—but I don't know if there is a general practice | 08:54:53 |
| mewp | for what it's worth, my encounters with flakes so far are mostly in repos that package themselves, in the same repo | 08:55:20 |
| mewp | I don't entirely get the last point. pkgs.callPackage ./pkgs/app/default.nix {} will probably do what you want for packages, import ./modules/app/default.nix will do that for modules | 08:56:36 |
| mewp | as in, outputs.nixosModules.app = import ./modules/app/default.nix; | 08:57:07 |
 @virtu:matrix.im | thanks mewp. can I bother you to share one or two of those repos with flakes that package themselves in the same repo? that would really help a lot. | 09:12:52 |
| mewp | https://gitlab.com/eobuwie-foss/imaginator/ ← that's one of mine | 09:14:07 |
| mewp | most of my other repos are unfortunately private, but I'll try to find a public example | 09:14:51 |
| mewp | oh, right, https://github.com/helix-editor/helix | 09:15:43 |
| mewp | but also see https://github.com/NixOS/flake-registry/blob/master/flake-registry.json | 09:15:50 |
| @virtu:matrix.im | I'll try to figure out a theme from those that I can apply to my problem. thanks, mewp! | 09:18:29 |
| mewp | don't hesitate to ask more | 09:18:44 |

| @virtu:matrix.im | I finally got around to adding the nixosModules target to my flake. Now I wonder how to correctly enable the service defined in the module in my configuration.nix. Before, I did import modules/app and services.app.enable = true;.
To use the flake for my app, I added it as input to the flake for my host configuration, and passed it as input to my configuration.nix. That got me the error error: The option services.p2p-crawler' does not exist.. After going through some examples, I tried adding my_app.nixosModules.my_appto the modules in my nixosConfigurations (similar to what I have for home manager), but that landed me aerror: attribute 'p2p-crawler' missing`. Did I do something wrong in my app's flake, or am I using the flake wrong?

 CRTified | virtu: There is no application attribute, and what you're seeing is the correct output. The systems are generated by flake-utils | 11:04:37 |
| CRTified | * virtu: There is no application attribute, and what you're seeing is the correct (well, more like expected) output. The systems are generated by flake-utils | 11:05:04 |
| CRTified | But nixosModules shouldn't be architecture-specific | 11:05:54 |
| CRTified | Maybe have a look at https://ayats.org/blog/no-flake-utils/#when-things-go-wrong for why you might not need flake-utils (especially if you want to define a nixosModule) | 11:07:01 |
| @virtu:matrix.im | CRTified: yeah, I just realized I had the nixosModules in the wrong place. I figured out a way to fix it in the mean time, but thanks for clarifying and providing some background information. I didn't use flake-utils in my most recent version, but I updated my flake's inputs this morning, switched to out-of-tree poetry2nix because it is no longer in unstable, and started from scratch with a flake template from poetry2nix (which uses flake-utils). I'll do some reading and try to figure out the best approach. thanks! | 11:14:03 |
