I run it with nixos-rebuild -I nixos-config=$(pwd)/users-impl.nix dry-build --show-trace. ./user-impl.nix is the name of the file, contents which I pasted. You also need to put some file in ../users/ dir. I have nix.nix file with those contents:

{
  home.stateVersion = "23.11";
}

home.stateVersion is needed, otherwise there's a different error from home-manager.
And you also need <home-manager> channel.
