Introduction to Denix Modules

A Denix module is the same as a NixOS, Home Manager, or Nix-Darwin module, but its attribute set is wrapped in the delib.module function.

No Limitations

This means that you can use all three types of modules simultaneously, although it's unlikely you'll need anything other than the first option:

Denix Module

{delib, ...}:
delib.module {
  name = "...";
}

Denix Module with NixOS/Home Manager/Nix-Darwin Module

{delib, ...}:
delib.module {
  name = "...";
} // {

}

NixOS/Home Manager/Nix-Darwin Module Only

{

}

Simplicity and Cleanliness

Denix modules tend to look simpler and cleaner compared to NixOS/Home Manager/Nix-Darwin modules, due to the following reasons:

1. Simple yet fully functional option declaration (see Options).
2. Built-in logic for separating configurations based on the value of ${delib.module :: name}.enable: always, ifEnabled, ifDisabled.
3. Shared options but separated configurations for NixOS, Home Manager, Nix-Darwin, and custom options.
