 David Arnold (blaggacao) | I'm currently transitioning to set up my hm, so this is might be a good time window to share ideas / findings. 🙂 | 00:54:12 |
| David Arnold (blaggacao) | I'm still not 100% settled on a conlusion, but right now after some discussions with Pacman99 I'm thinking of homeConfigurations in two use cases:
-
an alternative deployment method to, let's say, deploy-rs using home-manager. In this case we want an unaltered user@host config in self.homeConfigurations.
-
a way to port my user to non-nixos machines (user-at-work use case). In this case I'd want a pure user without any host specific configuration and use useUserPackages = false, so that $HOME/.nix-profile is used instead of the system wide /etc/profiles/....
Does that +- make sense? | 01:01:00 |

fufexan maybe you'd have an interest to review https://github.com/divnix/digga/pull/84? (w.r.t. the hm fup issue). sorry, I wasn't online yesterday, but yes, I'll review it :) | 12:06:06 |
| fufexan | David Arnold: is it necessary to use homeConfigurations in the form user@host as described here? https://github.com/divnix/digga/pull/84/files#diff-34527206e391faf315867402419cb48d33a1351f2b245863dd78a7d521cfd9c1R4-R10 | 12:16:39 |
| fufexan | maybe I don't really understand how it works | 12:17:15 |
| David Arnold (blaggacao) | --flake flake-uri[#name]
Build Home Manager configuration from the flake, which must contain the output homeConfigurations.name. If no name is specified it will first try username@hostname and then username
