After installing |

Vesktop |

in the classic way on NixOS, i.e. by installing the `vesktop` package in the o… |
|
|
|
So I found |
|
Nixcord](https://github.com/KaylorBen/nixcord). It is a [home-manager](https://… |
|
parameters and plugins in Nix. |
|
|
|
It's pretty simple to use and works perfectly. Just add it to the home-manager'… |
|
|
|
I've written my own Nix module that wraps nixcord, so here's what it looks like. |
|
|
|
```nix |
|
{ |
|
config, |
|
lib, |
|
namespace, |
|
... |
|
}: |
|
let |
|
inherit (lib) mkIf types strings; |
|
inherit (lib.${namespace}) |
|
mkBoolOpt |
|
mkOpt |
|
enabled |
|
disabled |
|
; |
|
|
|
cfg = config.${namespace}.messages.discord; |
|
|
|
trimWith' = |
|
s: |
|
strings.trimWith { |
|
start = true; |
|
end = true; |
|
} s; |
|
in |
|
{ |
|
options.${namespace}.messages.discord = with types; { |
|
enable = mkBoolOpt false "Whether or not to manage discord."; |
|
quickCss = mkOpt str (builtins.readFile ./custom.css) "Vencord quick CSS."; |
|
config = mkOpt attrs { |
|
useQuickCss = ((trimWith' cfg.quickCss) != ""); |
|
plugins = { |
|
betterFolders = enabled; |
|
betterRoleContext = enabled; |
|
crashHandler = enabled; |
|
memberCount = enabled; |
|
mentionAvatars = enabled; |
|
messageLatency = enabled; |
|
showHiddenThings = enabled; |
|
showMeYourName = enabled; |
|
webContextMenus = enabled; |
|
webKeybinds = enabled; |
|
webScreenShareFixes = enabled; |
|
alwaysAnimate = enabled; |
|
}; |
|
} "Manage the nixcord configuration."; |
|
}; |
|
|
|
config = mkIf cfg.enable { |
|
stylix.targets.vesktop.enable = false; |
|
|
|
programs.nixcord = { |
|
enable = true; |
|
discord = disabled; |
|
vesktop.enable = true; |
|
|
|
inherit (cfg) config quickCss; |
|
}; |
|
}; |
|
} |
|
``` |
|
|
|
With regard to the above code snippet, please note that in my case, the home-ma… |
|
Snowfall lib |
|
. |
|
|
|
```nix |
|
enabled = { enable = true; }; |
|
disabled = { enable = false; }; |
|
``` |
|
|

I've explicitly deactivated de Discord which is enabled by default, as well as … |
|
Stylix](https://stylix.danth.me) because the [Dracula |
|
theme (far too cyan-based). |
|
|
|
Instead I downloaded |

draculatheme.com/betterdiscord |
|
so as not to depend on the Internet and activated it with the `quickCss` optio… |

Nixcord |

is really great, you really should use it ! |
