It is referenced in various places, but does not work out of the box:
$ nixos-help
/run/current-system/sw/bin/nixos-help: unable to start a web browser; please set $BROWSER
In the user-hidden fallbacks to xdg-open(1) and w3m(1), `nixos-help`
expects tools to be deliberately installed by users.
For default installations and new users in general, this is unlikely to
be the case. Conversely, chances to use `nixos-help` are even higher
in such cases.
Use w3m-nographics by default to ensure documentation is always
available. The documentation browser on ttyS8 already does so, but is
not accessible in every installation, e.g. VMs with only ttyS0 and SSH
available.
This obsoletes including it in the base profile's systemPackages,
so remove the @TODO as done.
Remove the btsync module. Bittorrent Sync was renamed to Resilio Sync in
2016, which is supported by the resilio module. Since Resilio Sync had
some security updates since 2016, it is not safe to run Bittorrent Sync
anymore.
I was pointed towards a small syntax error in the `nixpkgs.overlays`
documentation. There was a trailing semicolon after the overlay
function.
I also aligned the code a bit better so opening and closing brackets can
be visually matched much better (IMO).
Before this change `man 5 configuration.nix` would only show options of modules in
the `baseModules` set, which consists only of the list of modules in
`nixos/modules/module-list.nix`
With this change applied and `documentation.nixos.includeAllModules` option enabled
all modules included in `configuration.nix` file will be used instead.
This makes configurations with custom modules self-documenting. It also means
that importing non-`baseModules` modules like `gce.nix` or `azure.nix`
will make their documentation available in `man 5 configuration.nix`.
`documentation.nixos.includeAllModules` is currently set to `false` by
default as enabling it usually uncovers bugs and prevents evaluation.
It should be set to `true` in a release or two.
This was originally implemented in #47177, edited for more configurability,
documented and rebased onto master by @oxij.
This installs the kio "man:" protocol handler, which fixes the UNIX manual
section in the KDE Help Center.
Note that kde currently parses "/etc/man.conf" manually, if `$MANPATH` is not
set, to build its man page index. (if https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=404022
is addressed, the "/etc/man.conf" symlink should not be necessary anymore)
This also includes a full end-to-end CockroachDB clustering test to
ensure everything basically works. However, this test is not currently
enabled by default, though it can be run manually. See the included
comments in the test for more information.
Closes#51306. Closes#38665.

This reverts commit 10addad6035034b2b78f3c74ef436cd7146d5231, reversing
changes made to 7786575c6c0e1b010d46ad00b14d0bb5bf08d7d2.
NixOS scripts should be kept in the NixOS source tree, not in
pkgs. Moving them around is just confusing and creates unnecessary
code/history churn.
