Hi,
On NixOS, I would like systemd to start emacs (daemon) once and for all so
that I can just use emacs-client all the times. I put this content in
~/.config/systemd/user/emacs.service:
------------------------------------------------------------------
[Unit]
Description=Emacs: the extensible, self-documenting text editor
[Service]
Type=forking
ExecStart=/run/current-system/sw/bin/emacs --daemon
ExecStop=/run/current-system/sw/bin/emacsclient --eval "(kill-emacs)"
Environment=SSH_AUTH_SOCK=%t/keyring/ssh
Restart=always
[Install]
WantedBy=default.target
------------------------------------------------------------------
The problem is that many environment variables are missing. For exemple,
opening any gnome application (e.g., evince) from emacs will result in an
un-themed window. To fix that I can add the following to the Environment
property in the service file:
GTK_DATA_PREFIX=/nix/store/pd7189r7nwwpbsr74fsil5bzjwnm90j9-system-path
But this path will change in the future, the GTK_DATA_PREFIX variable being
defined as
GTK_DATA_PREFIX=${config.system.path}
How can I define an Emacs daemon user-based systemd service in NixOS?
Thank you very much
