sessiond-hooks #

sessiond-hooks is a sessiond client that launches and supervises a per-user session hook (dinit --user, runsvdir, …) started for every unique UID.

Installation #

sessiond-hooks requires sessiond to be installed and enabled first.

On finix with flakes:

{
  inputs.sessiond-hooks.url = "git+https://tangled.org/r0chd.pl/sessiond-hooks";
}

{ inputs, lib, pkgs, ... }:
{
  imports = [
    inputs.sessiond-hooks.finixModules.default
  ];

  services.sessiond-hooks = {
    package = inputs.sessiond-hooks.packages.${pkgs.system}.default;
    hooks.dinit.settings = {
      on_start = {
        exec = lib.getExe' pkgs.dinit "dinit";
        args = [ "--user" "--services-dir" "~/.config/dinit.d" ];
      };
      restart = {
        on = "Failure";
        delay = 5;
      };
    };
  };
}

With npins:

npins add git --name sessiond-hooks https://tangled.org/r0chd.pl/sessiond-hooks --branch master

{ lib, pkgs, ... }:
let
  sources = import ./npins;
  sessiond-hooks = import sources.sessiond-hooks.outPath { };
in
{
  imports = [
    sessiond-hooks.finixModules.default
  ];

  services.sessiond-hooks = {
    package = sessiond-hooks.packages.sessiond-hooks;
    hooks.dinit.settings = {
      on_start = {
        exec = lib.getExe' pkgs.dinit "dinit";
        args = [ "--user" "--services-dir" "~/.config/dinit.d" ];
      };
      restart = {
        on = "Failure";
        delay = 5;
      };
    };
  };
}

To build it manually:

cargo build --release

The binary is written to target/release/sessiond-hooks.
