I recently stumbled upon similar issue when working on home-manager. https://discourse.nixos.org/t/is-it-possible-to-define-systemd-services-in-a-submodule/39538/5

The idea is that enabling https://nix-community.github.io/home-manager/options.xhtml#opt-programs.bash.enableCompletion should set environment.pathsToLink = [ "/share/bash-completion" ];.

I think that module system is missing an option to pass config options recursively up to all ancestors.

15:06:01
@mr-qubo:matrix.orgmr-qubo My idea is that nixos config could have a property extraNixosChildConfig and in home-manager bash module I could set _recurseAncestors = { extraNixosChildConfig = { environment.pathsToLink = [ ... ]; }; }. 15:07:22
@mr-qubo:matrix.orgmr-qubowdyt?15:07:26
@mr-qubo:matrix.orgmr-qubo * My idea is that nixos config could have a property extraNixosChildConfig that gets merged with the rest of the config and in home-manager bash module I could set _recurseAncestors = { extraNixosChildConfig = { environment.pathsToLink = [ ... ]; }; }. 15:07:44
@mr-qubo:matrix.orgmr-qubo * My idea is that nixos config could pick up extraNixosChildConfig from childs and merge it with the rest of the config and in home-manager bash module I could set _recurseAncestors = { extraNixosChildConfig = { environment.pathsToLink = [ ... ]; }; }. 15:08:21
@infinisil:matrix.orginfinisilNot sure about that recursive thing, that doesn't seem necessary, but yeah if there's something missing in the NixOS module for home-manager, that could be added15:34:09
@infinisil:matrix.orginfinisilSounds like an issue for the home-manager repo15:34:16
@mr-qubo:matrix.orgmr-quboYeah, we could add it just for home-manager. But is seems like the issue is quite generic. See also https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/152785.15:51:50
@infinisil:matrix.orginfinisilHmm yeah fair. I don't have the capacity to think a lot about this right now, it's a very intricate topic to wrap ones head around15:56:55
@mr-qubo:matrix.orgmr-quboYeah, I just wanted to bring the topic, maybe someone has some interesting thoughts.16:05:23
