Now the default way to define NixOS window manager modules is to use
mkEnableOption to describe the module itself.
In this commit, all files on nixos/modules/services/x11/window-managers
are changed.
Sawfish is a versatile, Lisp-based window manager
In that commit I include all Sawfish stack:
- librep, a lisp system;
- rep-gtk, bindings for gtk
- sawfish, the window manager
- Move lgi to luaPackages
- Use luaPackages in awesome and passthru lua
- Allow to pass lua modules to the awesome WM so that those can be used in the configuration
This commit updates the stumpwm to version 0.9.8. Futhermore, it
refactors the expression quite a lot:
* stumpwm has been moved from lisp modules to window-managers.
* stumpwm has been added to the window managers NixOS knows about, this
enables the user to add stumpwm as a default window manager in his
NixOS configuration like with Xmonad or i3.
* the package has been split into stumpwm and stumpwmContrib. This is
due to the fact that development of stumpwm and its extension modules
has been split into two repositories. As of today, the release is the
last one before this split. This split into two packages only reflect
those upcoming upstream changes already.
It is planned to make the addition of the extension modules voluntarily,
like with Xmonads option "enableContribAndExtras". Furthermore it might
be possible to add an option to compile stumpwm with clisp instead of
sbcl.
Using pkgs.lib on the spine of module evaluation is problematic
because the pkgs argument depends on the result of module
evaluation. To prevent an infinite recursion, pkgs and some of the
modules are evaluated twice, which is inefficient. Using ‘with lib’
prevents this problem.
PR #1366
The previous windowManager.xmonad option only starts xmonad and
doesn't make ghc available. This assumes that the user has GHC with
access to the xmonad package in his PATH when using xmonad.
Xmonad in Nix is now patched to accept the XMONAD_{GHC,XMESSAGE}
environment variables which define the path to either ghc or xmessage.
These are set automatically when using xmonad through
windowManager.xmonad.
My (or specific: @aristidb and my) changes make it possible to use
Xmonad without adding GHC to any profile. This is useful if you want
to add a different GHC to your profile.
This commit introduces some options:
- xmonad.haskellPackages: Controls which Haskell package set & GHC set
is used to (re)build Xmonad
- xmonad.extraPackages: Function returning a list of additional
packages to make available to GHC when rebuilding Xmonad
- xmonad.enableContribExtras: Boolean option to build xmonadContrib
and xmonadExtras.
