the conversion procedure is simple:
- find all things that look like options, ie calls to either `mkOption`
or `lib.mkOption` that take an attrset. remember the attrset as the
option
- for all options, find a `description` attribute who's value is not a
call to `mdDoc` or `lib.mdDoc`
- textually convert the entire value of the attribute to MD with a few
simple regexes (the set from mdize-module.sh)
- if the change produced a change in the manual output, discard
- if the change kept the manual unchanged, add some text to the
description to make sure we've actually found an option. if the
manual changes this time, keep the converted description
this procedure converts 80% of nixos options to markdown. around 2000
options remain to be inspected, but most of those fail the "does not
change the manual output check": currently the MD conversion process
does not faithfully convert docbook tags like <code> and <package>, so
any option using such tags will not be converted at all.
Previously you either had to set the setuid bit yourself or workaround
`isSystemUser = true` (for a loginable shell) to access the weechat
screen.
`programs.screen` shouldn't do this by default to avoid taking too much
assumptions about the setup, however `services.weechat` explicitly
requires tihs.
See #45728
This adds several improvements the previously introduced
`services.weechat` module:
* Dropped `services.weechat.init` as the initialization script can now
be done on package-level since 2af41719bc using the `configure`
function.
* Added `sessionName` option to explicitly configure a name for the
`screen` session (by default: weechat-screen).
* Added `binary` option to configure the binary name (e.g.
`weechat-headless`).
* Added docs regarding `screen` session and `weechat.service`.
