The wiki lists overlay as a valid attribute of flakes; however, I'm getting this error:

error: flake 'git+file:///home/d4hines/repos/beth' has an unsupported attribute 'overlay', at /nix/store/9cdyiyw5333969j5rhyrc3112kl2wkcv-source/flake.nix:4:3

thanks. some of the examples had removed home-manager.users.<user> from the users/<user>/default.nix and replaced it with just the username. so its confusing

In reply to @blaggacao:matrix.org
flakes only have a weak schema. some attrs are better known than others. any attribute is fine. none has magic semantics beyond a bit of cli ux sugar

if you are using master, you should have some suites under home.importables.suites, then you reference these in a user under ./users/kraftnix/default.nix or ./users/kraftnix.nix and do something like

  home-manager.users.kraftnix = { suites, ... }: {
    imports = with suites; base ++ tokyo-night;
    ...
  };

where the above pulls in a suite I have called base and tokyo-night, at least that's how I use user profiles

I empathically understand the impetus. However, if you ask me, it might be easier the other way round.. 🙂

so do you know what these lines are for then? https://github.com/divnix/devos/blob/main/flake.nix#L137-L140

In reply to @timdeh:matrix.org
yeah, it's just used in the shell because of the follows bug. Hopefully they merge that PR soonish so we can remove the patches all together

In reply to @d4hines:matrix.org
Is there a minimal example you can link me to? More minimal than devos 😅

David Arnold (blaggacao): how would I apply the overlay in the hmOnly example?

In reply to @timdeh:matrix.org
yusdacra: how long has it been since you've updated? A long time ago we used to have a patch to enable flakes by default but we decided to remove it. I've rebased on develop fairly recently and, as I said, I updated Nix just yesterday and am not getting this error

I merged the main branch just some 30 minutes ago
