Thank you for help. so now I have flake.nix and home.nix in ~/.config/home-manager. flake.nix looks like
`{ description = "Plasma Manager Example";
inputs = { # Specify the source of Home Manager and Nixpkgs home-manager.url = "github:nix-community/home-manager"; nixpkgs.url = "github:nixos/nixpkgs/nixpkgs-unstable"; home-manager.inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs";
};
outputs = { home-manager , plasma-manager , nixpkgs , ... }: let system = "x86_64-linux"; username = "naresh"; in { homeConfigurations.${username} = home-manager.lib.homeManagerConfiguration { pkgs = nixpkgs.legacyPackages.${system}; # extraModules = [ # plasma-manager.homeManagerModules.plasma-manager # ];
} `
and home.nix looks like
and when I run
home-manager switch --flake ~/.config/home-manager/
It gives me`error: … while evaluating a branch condition
`
Now don't know what to do. I got your latter advice regarding diff but first I need to make this work. I am on unstable nixos version. and
home-manager --version gives 23.11-pre
nixos-version gives 23.11pre546599.e44462d6021b (Tapir)

The problem seems to be that
home.stateVersion
is not set because you commented out both the declaration inflake.nix
as well as the line that importshome.nix
. It's a bit difficult to see whether the config is otherwise fine since there is a lot of visual clutter due to all the commented-out lines.
