 @n4ch723hr3r:nope.chat | the snowfall scared me xD | 14:52:02 |
 x10an14 | Ahh, right, gotten blind to my own code. Thanks, let me try. | 14:52:10 |
| x10an14 | Does the same w/me... | 14:52:18 |
| @n4ch723hr3r:nope.chat | { name, config, ... }:
i dont think config exists in that scope, right? | 14:52:46 |
| @n4ch723hr3r:nope.chat | you probably need to do fooConfs.${name}... | 14:53:26 |
| @n4ch723hr3r:nope.chat | and afaik fooConfs is often named cfg in nix modules | 14:53:52 |
| x10an14 | Nah, sorry, there's something I'm messing up/not getting 😅
See this paste: https://paste.sr.ht/~x10an14/653ed23dd63ba7166d4da89b315c9cce3c4f92c8
And see the comment.
Here's the error when I try to nix eval .#modules.x10.device-configs:
x10an14@home-desktop ❯ : nix eval .#modules.x10.device-configs

See the errors reporting missing attributes?

| @n4ch723hr3r:nope.chat | you can also do nix repl then enter :lf . | 15:04:06 |
| x10an14 | I know that, but again, I'm asking here because I don't know what I should be exploring. There's something missing in my mental model, and I'm here asking for a nudge in the right direction^^
Answering your suggestion on using the nix repl directly, how can I in the repl explore what the config attribute w/the comments look like? I only know how to explore evaluated configs/outputs in the repl
