 @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | fricklerhandwerk: thanks; added an entry to option-types.section.md | 07:51:18 |
 @johannes.kirschbauer:scs.ems.host | Yeah the types.nix documentation is not not yet generated from source directly.
We'd like to move the types and all other module system documentation out of the nixos manual, and put it into the reference documentation of nixpkgs instead.
Ndukauba Maryjane Oluchi That would be something. Its basically just moving things.

 Maryjane | Noted! thanks | 13:26:33 |
| Maryjane | Alright. | 13:26:50 |
 fricklerhandwerk | Ndukauba Maryjane Oluchi: if you open PRs, please ping me for reviews, otherwise I won’t notice them (Nixpkgs is huge and it’s impractical to subscribe to everything) | 15:55:29 |
| Maryjane | Noted! fricklerhandwerk | 15:56:23 |

| fricklerhandwerk | In reply to @maryjane_:matrix.org
Hi fricklerhandwerk i am currently working on this issue.
what do I Document in place of ' make ' ? It’s in the example: you’d run the custom devmode command | 19:10:44 |
| Maryjane | Okay so the instruction should say "You can quickly validate your edits with devmode command" ? | 19:15:02 |

| Maryjane | Hello everyone, I need some help.
i am currently working on fixing the inconsistencies in the nixOs manual, just like fricklerhandwerk pointed out which i have done
but now i am trying to confirm if the edits are visible already on the manual, but it isn't. what could be the issue? | 15:56:13 |
| Maryjane | tried to build the manual locally using: /nix/store/dvm0rj35kfphj44rc4pn89cw9cs9bf3i-nixos-manual-html
but my edits are not visible yet | 15:57:04 |
| Maryjane | Just trying to confirm before i send in a PR | 16:20:56 |
 elikoga | Can you clarify what you mean by that? | 16:36:42 |
| Maryjane | sure! let me give a breakdown on what i did .
| 16:40:41 |
| Maryjane | I used the Nix-shell environment to build the NixOs manually
i edited these inconsistencies using the nano text editor, after doing that i tried to confirm if the edits i made has reflected in the nixOS manual before i send in a PR but it hasn't and that is why i am asking my question for clarification | 16:43:47 |

| elikoga | Have you run devmode and reviewed your changes in the live preview that opens after running the command? | 16:45:11 |
| elikoga | * Have you run devmode like fricklerhandwerk said and reviewed your changes in the live preview that opens after running the command? | 16:45:35 |
| Maryjane | No I haven't | 16:46:22 |
| elikoga | Please do. After reviewing the changes in the browser tab opened by devmode, you can try building the docs using nix-build nixos/release.nix -A manual.x86_64-linux and open the docs using xdg-open /nix/store/OUTPUTHASHHERE-nixos-manual-html/share/doc/nixos/index.html. You may need to adjust the path to nixos/release.nix depending on your current working directory. | 16:49:20 |
| Maryjane | Okay elikoga thank you for clarifying | 18:18:23 |
