Using nix-doom-emacs in a doom-emacs config repository, without home-manager? about nix-doom-emacs HOT 7 CLOSED

Yes everything is great, thanks.

from nix-doom-emacs.

I'm not sure how you would do it with a flake exactly, but in general you can remove a few lines from the home-manager example:

{ pkgs, ... }:

let
  doom-emacs = pkgs.callPackage (builtins.fetchTarball {
    url = https://github.com/nix-community/nix-doom-emacs/archive/master.tar.gz;
  }) {
    doomPrivateDir = ./doom.d;  # Directory containing your config.el init.el
                                # and packages.el files
  };
-in {
+in doom-emacs
-  home.packages = [ doom-emacs ];
-}

Crap. I can't stop the urge to figure it out.. Here's a broken patch that should give you a base to work off of.

from nix-doom-emacs.

I tried this:

{
  description = "shaunsingh's doom emacs configuration";

  inputs = {
    nixpkgs.url = "github:nixos/nixpkgs/nixos-unstable";
    nix-doom-emacs.url = "github:nix-community/nix-doom-emacs";
    emacs.url = "github:cmacrae/emacs";
    flake-utils.url  = "github:numtide/flake-utils";
  };

  outputs =
    { self
    , nixpkgs
    , emacs
    , flake-utils
    , nix-doom-emacs
    }:
    flake-utils.lib.eachDefaultSystem (system:
      let
        overlays = [ (import emacs) ];
        pkgs = import nixpkgs {
          inherit system overlays;
        };
      in
      with pkgs;
      {
        defaultPackage = nix-doom-emacs.package.${system} { doomPrivateDir = ./.; };
      }
    );
}

nix build works fine, so that's a start

nix run Results in this error: error: unable to execute '/nix/store/2yzavm1d79qwk52mb99bvlhsw1bffp0p-emacs-with-packages-27.2/bin/emacs-with-packages': No such file or directory

Is it possible to change what emacs package nix-doom-emacs is using as well, from the overlay I'm using (or from the emacs-overlay nix-doom-emacs uses)? I didn't find anything in the README

from nix-doom-emacs.

Yay! (^:

nix run Results in this error

It should be running /nix/store/blahblah/bin/emacs instead. Not sure how you make Nix do that.

Sure, pass this in alongside doomPrivateDir: (my usage here)

        emacsPackages = emacsOverlay.emacsPackagesFor someEmacsPackage;

It seems like I have answered everything

from nix-doom-emacs.

@shaunsingh's flake.nix above got me building a per-directory emacs in result/bin that seems to be responsive to my doom.d configuration (because I declared coq in (doom! ... :lang ... coq) and proof general was installed upon booting up emacs), but it's not doom -- no vim, no themes, no doom home screen.

Here's my repo https://github.com/orbis-tertius/coq-tinyram it seems strange to me.

EDIT: I believe it was an omission from my (doom! ... declaration that caused this.

from nix-doom-emacs.

So it's good now @quinn-dougherty?
