report a bug or discuss a potential feature implementation, first look among the

already <a class="link" href="https://github.com/notashelf/nvf/issues" target="_top">open issues</a> and if no matching issue exists you may open
|
||
a <a class="link" href="https://github.com/notashelf/nvf/issues/new" target="_top">new issue</a> and describe your problem/request. While creating an

issue, please try to include as much information as you can, ideally also include relevant context in which an issue

occurs or a feature should be implemented.</p><div class="section"> <div class="titlepage"> <div> <div> <h1 id="sec-contrib-getting-started" class="title" style="clear: both">Getting Started </h1> </div> </div></div><p>You, naturally, would like to start by forking the repository to get started. If

for instructions on how you can do this. Once you have a fork of <span class="strong"><strong>nvf</strong></span>, you

should create a separate branch based on the msot recent <code class="literal">main</code> branch. Give
|

your branch a reasonably descriptive name (e.g. <code class="literal">feature/debugger</code> or

description if you wish.</p><p>In case of nested modules, i.e <code class="literal">modules/languages/java.nix</code> you are recommended

certain changes are done at the user’s discretion based on how the original

code was structured.</p><p>Please use one line code for attribute sets that contain only one subset.

For example:</p><pre><code class="programlisting nix"># parent modules should always be unfolded
|

# which means module = { value = ... } instead of module.value = { ... }
|
||
module = {
|
||
value = mkEnableOption "some description" // { default = true; }; # merges can be done inline where possible
|
||
|
||
# same as parent modules, unfold submodules
|
||
subModule = {
|
||
# this is an option that contains more than one nested value
|
||
someOtherValue = mkOption {
|
||
type = lib.types.bool;
|
||
description = "Some other description";
|
||
default = true;
|
||
};
|
||
};
|
||
}
|
||
</code></pre><p>If you move a line down after the merge operator, Alejandra will automatically
|
||
unfold the whole merged attrset for you, which we <span class="strong"><strong>do not</strong></span> want.</p><pre><code class="programlisting nix">module = {
|
||
key = mkEnableOption "some description" // {
|
||
default = true; # we want this to be inline
|
||
}; # ...
|
||
}
|
||
</code></pre><p>For lists, it is mostly up to your own discretion how you want to format them,
|
||
but please try to unfold lists if they contain multiple items and especially
|
||
if they are to include comments.</p><pre><code class="programlisting nix"># this is ok
|
||
acceptableList = [
|
||
item1 # comment
|
