[bug#60521] Re: [60521] Add home-dotfiles-service-type - Rebased on master

[Giacomo]

Hello,

This is what I tried in my configuration. It should work:

(define mydpi "192")

(home-environment
[...]
(services
  (list
        [...]
        (service home-files-service-type
                 `((".Xresources" ,(mixed-text-file "Xresources" "xft.dpi:" mydpi))))
        (service home-dotfiles-service-type
                 (home-dotfiles-configuration
                  (directories
                   (list "/home/myself/guix-conf/.dotfiles")))))))

Hope this helps,

giacomo

Hello Feng Shu,

Apologies for the delay. I fixed the bug you pointed out for symlinks and spaces in file names. Thank you for catching them!

About templating I would suggest you to use mixed-text-file or computed file from (guix gexp) and pass them directly to them home-files-service-type. It is possible to use it together with home-dotfiles-service-type.
