value is a list while a Boolean was expected
They both reference the toJSON builtin, so we get semantic identifiers
that express the intent of the generation.
Both should be able to map each nix value (minus functions) to the
destination config files.
Includes two invocation unit tests.
Many configurations are INI-style files. Attribute sets can be mapped
rather painlessly to the INI format.
This adds a function toINI inside a new generators library section.
Also, unit tests for the default values are provided.
This makes it easy to specify kernel patches:
boot.kernelPatches = [ pkgs.kernelPatches.ubuntu_fan_4_4 ];
To make the `boot.kernelPatches` option possible, this also makes it
easy to extend and/or modify the kernel packages within a linuxPackages
set. For example:
pkgs.linuxPackages.extend (self: super: {
kernel = super.kernel.override {
kernelPatches = super.kernel.kernelPatches ++ [
pkgs.kernelPatches.ubuntu_fan_4_4
];
};
});
