- add 'package' option
- add 'game' and 'server' attrset
- reduce repetition by using functions bool and optionalSetting
- add default value for cfg.name
- revise some option descriptions
* Make services.archisteamfarm.bots.*.passwordFile Nullable
This adds support for alternate password specification methods, such as through the web-ui.
* Update description for services.archisteamfarm.bots.*.passwordFile
Adds note about omitting or setting to null to provide the password through the web-ui.
This adds two main features:
1. `services.minetest-server.config` is an options object that is automatically serialized into a minetest config file.
2. `services.minetest-server.extraArgs` provides an escape hatch to pass extra arguments.
conversions were done using https://github.com/pennae/nix-doc-munge
using (probably) rev f34e145 running
nix-doc-munge nixos/**/*.nix
nix-doc-munge --import nixos/**/*.nix
the tool ensures that only changes that could affect the generated
manual *but don't* are committed, other changes require manual review
and are discarded.
a lot of markdown syntax has already snuck into option docs, many of it
predating the intent to migrate to markdown. we don't convert all of it
here, just that which is accompanied by docbook tags as well. the rest
can be converted by simply adding the mdDoc marker.
make (almost) all links appear on only a single line, with no
unnecessary whitespace, using double quotes for attributes. this lets us
automatically convert them to markdown easily.
the few remaining links are extremely long link in a gnome module, we'll
come back to those at a later date.
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.
