LN Nix User Group: Making a NixOS module

LN Nix User Group - Making a NixOS Module

Background

Home Assistant

I use [Home Assistant] on a NixOS server at home.

Home Assistant is an open-source home automation system, designed to be a central control system for smart home devices with a focus on local control and privacy. It's implemented in Python and has a bewildering array of integrations, so in turn it has a huge number of depdendencies!

There's a great [Home Assistant NixOS module] that allows declarative configuration of Home Assistant.

NixOS module to enable systemd linger for users. Adapted from https://github.com/michalrus/dotfiles/commit/ebd5fa9583f82589f23531647aa677feb3f8d344#diff-4d353005ef5b3e37f33c07332b8523edR1
{ config, lib, pkgs, ... }:
# A temporary hack to `loginctl enable-linger $somebody` (for
# multiplexer sessions to last), until this one is unresolved:
# https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/3702
#
# Usage: `users.extraUsers.somebody.linger = true` or slt.
