However, even with the patch, Yabai may not correctly pick up Emacs if you invoke the emacs binary directly from a shell. Out of the box, non-"Mac Port" versions of Emacs will not be picked up properly by window managers like Yabai because Emacs does not set the correct macOS window role. overrideAttrs (old : Window manager integration Nixpkgs.overlays = įor installing one of the unstable branches of emacs, add the following lines to /etc/nixos/configuration.nix: This can then be used in the system configuration by using the self argument: Using a system flake, one can specify the specific revision of the overlay as a flake input, for example: See the README for a complete list of packages provided, and their differences. Then you can follow the normal nixpkgs installation instructions (above), but use your package of choice from the overlay (e.g. To use these, first apply the overlay (instructions below), which will make the packages available in nixpkgs. The community overlay provides nightly versions of the Emacs unstable branches, ELPA / MELPA packages, and EXWM + its dependencies. If you still prefer the gtk version of emacs, you can instead install emacs-gtk (before 2022-09 this package does not exist and emacs defaults to the gtk version). However, the lucid flavor of emacs will not take into account the gtk theme (since it is not even gtk) and looks quite… ugly (see comparisons here). The reason is that emacs is less stable with gtk especially in daemon mode. Since 2022-09, the package called emacs now installs the lucid toolkit instead of gtk. Stable (nixpkgs)Įmacs is available in nixpkgs under the names emacs and emacs-gtk. Warning: Certain issues are possible, when mixing different versions of Emacs, in particular a configuration file tailored towards emacs with native compilation, may misbehave on non-native compiling versions, unless only the emacs lisp code is shared between them. Also, see the NixOS manual entry for Emacs for additional details about installation and configuration. ![]() Several stable versions of emacs are available by default in nixpkgs, and unstable branches are also available via the community overaly. Since it uses pinning in its configuration for dependencies, it is possible to package Doom Emacs with nix (see nix-doom-emacs). IDE-like features, note-taking, and time management). The Doom Emacs project provides a framework with a more beginner-friendly default configuration, and pre-configured modules for popular features (e.g. ![]()
