| Daniel Gomez | It's still broken for me and I can't get doom emacs any kind of way on NixOS, it's causing me to leave and search for another distro. | 13:42:07 |
 iqubic (she/her) | I just installed Emacs via system.environmentPackages and then installed Doom Emacs locally, in an imperative way, using the guide on the Github. https://github.com/doomemacs/doomemacs?tab=readme-ov-file#install | 16:25:33 |
| iqubic (she/her) | I also have my packages installed that way. | 16:25:41 |
| iqubic (she/her) | I don't know of a good way to make Nix do this for me. | 16:26:18 |
 Xandor Schiefer | I've been using Nix & Doom Emacs mostly declaratively for years. Here's my approach at a high level: https://discourse.nixos.org/t/advice-needed-installing-doom-emacs/8806/8?u=zeorin, and you're welcome to take a look at my current implementation (please excuse the 6000 line file, I haven't yet neatly modularized it). | 22:33:17 |
| Xandor Schiefer | TL;DR: Doom's source is just a package that is installed to disk by home-manager. Doom respects an env var, $DOOMLOCALDIR, that can be set to a writable directory, i.e. not a directory managed by nix. Then I take advantage of some onChange hooks to run doom install/doom sync automatically when certain things change, this become a part of home-manager's activation script. | 22:35:51 |
