2a911454d3 kakoune: support for adding plugins
Motivation: There is a thriving plugin ecosystem for Kakoune now,
and it is nice to add these in our Nix configurations. This was modeled
on neovim's plugins.

parinfer-rust is useable both standalone and as a Kakoune plugin,
so the plugin file inherits the same definition as pkgs.

I'll make PRs for other plugins if this gets accepted.
[Here](https://github.com/eraserhd/nixpkgs/tree/kak-ansi)'s a tested
branch for the `kak-ansi` plugin.

ibus-engines.typing-booster: support french by default
This has been postponed[1] because of an unclear state of the french

dlib: add flag to disable AVX support
Especially older hardware doesn't support AVX instructions. DLib is
still functional there, but significantly slower[1].

By setting `avxInstructions` to false, DLib will be compiled without
this feature.

e20e1e5c2c weechat: add perl.withPackages (#48815)
Allows for adding Perl libraries in the same way as for Python. Doesn't
really need to be a function, since there's only one perlPackages in
nixpkgs, but I went for consistency with the python plugin.

Merge pull request #47238 from obsidiansystems/overrideScope-order
lib: Deprecate `overrideScope` in lieu of `overrideScope'` taking arguments in the conventional order
2018-09-24 18:04:18 -04:00
John Ericson
b9dce11712 lib: Make overrideScope' which takes arguments in the conventional order
The `overrideScope` bound by `makeScope` (via special `callPackage`)
took an override in the form `super: self { … }`. But this is
dangerously close to the `self: super { … }` form used by *everything*
else, even other definitions of `overrideScope`! Since that
implementation did not even share any code either until I changed it
recently in 3cf43547f4, this inconsistency
is almost certainly an oversight and not intentional.

Unfortunately, just as the inconstency is hard to debug if one just
assumes the conventional order, any sudden fix would break existing
overrides in the same hard-to-debug way. So instead of changing the
definition a new `overrideScope'` with the conventional order is added,
and old `overrideScope` deprecated with a warning saying to use
`overrideScope'` instead. That will hopefully get people to stop using
`overrideScope`, freeing our hand to change or remove it in the future.

ibus-engines.typing-booster: init at 2.1.1
This package providesa completion input method for faster typing.
See https://mike-fabian.github.io/ibus-typing-booster

Detailed instructions how to activate this IBus engine on your desktop
can be found in the upstream docs: https://mike-fabian.github.io/ibus-typing-booster/documentation.html

A simple VM with the Gnome3 desktop and activated `ibus' looks like
this:

```nix
{
  emojipicker = { pkgs, ... }: {
    services.xserver = {
      enable = true;
      desktopManager.gnome3.enable = true;
      desktopManager.xterm.enable = false;
    };
    users.extraUsers.vm = {
      password = "vm";
      isNormalUser = true;
    };
    i18n.inputMethod.ibus.engines = [
      pkgs.ibus-engines.typing-booster
    ];
    i18n.inputMethod.enabled = "ibus";
    virtualisation.memorySize = 2048;
  };
}
```

weechat: 2.1 -> 2.2; improve package configuration
This aims to make the `weechat` package even more configurable. It
allows to specify scripts and commands using the `configure` function
inside a `weechat.override` expression.

The package can be configured like this:

```
with import <nixpkgs> { };
weechat.override {
  plugins = { availablePlugins, ... }: {
    plugins = builtins.attrValues availablePlugins;

    init = ''
      /set foo bar
      /server add freenode chat.freenode.org
    '';

    scripts = [ "/path/to/script.py" ];
  };
}
```

All commands are passed to `weechat --run-command "/set foo bar;/server ..."`.

The `plugins' attribute is not necessarily required anymore, if it's
sufficient to add `init' commands, the `plugins' will be
`builtins.attrValues availablePlugins' by default.

Additionally the result contains `weechat` and `weechat-headless`
(introduced in WeeChat 2.1) now.

eb0207f132 citrix_receiver: document installation pitfalls and extraCerts (#44635)
Since #44522 it's possible to specify custom certificates for the Citrix
receiver. As it took me some time to create a proper setup Citrix can
behave fairly unexpected.

I mostly covered two aspects:

* Don't install Citrix with `nix run`: when `citrix.desktop` is linked
  to $XDG_CONFIG_DIRS, it's possible to start a session directly from the
  browser when loading `.ica` files which makes the usage *way* easier.

* It's possible to add custom certificates using the Citrix wrapper. A
  new store path with the original derivation and the certificates will be
  created and therefore no rebuild of the package is needed when adding
  new certs.

7723d9935f fzf: add script for finding 'share' folder
So that helper scripts can be easily sourced in interactive shell
configuration. `autojump` package was already present and had the same
requirements for findind a `share` folders, so I took an inspiration
there.

I beleive this is a better alternative to:
- https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/25080
- https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/27058

Replacing `$out/share/shell` with `$bin/share/fzf` was necessary to
prevent dependency loop in produced derivations.

manual: add "Emacs" section to manual
This gives some basics on configuring Emacs within Nix. The
configuration is fairly long just to give a good idea of what’s going
on. I can trim out some of it if it’s not necessary. Note that there
is already a section for Emacs in the NixOS manual. However, this is
aimed at avoiding using modules altogether to make things easier for
non-NixOS users. This configuration should work on NixOS anyway,
however.

The former is still respected as a fallback for config.nix for
backwards compatibility (but not for overlays because they're a new
feature).
