Fix for users/dio/home.nix infinite recursion error

Problem Analysis

The issue is that users/dio/home.nix expects an inputs' parameter to access the dots framework, but the home-manager configuration in hosts/shulkerbox.nix doesn't provide this argument, causing infinite recursion when trying to resolve inputs' through _module.args.

Root Cause

  • dio/home.nix:1 defines { inputs', pkgs, ... }: expecting inputs' to be passed
  • hosts/shulkerbox.nix:476 assigns home-manager.users.dio = ./../users/dio/home.nix; without providing inputs'
  • This causes Nix to try to resolve inputs' through the module system, leading to infinite recursion

Solution Options

Option 1: Add inputs' to home-manager configuration (Recommended)

Modify hosts/shulkerbox.nix to pass inputs' to all user home configurations:

home-manager.users = {
  shift = import ../users/shift/home.nix;
  dio = { inputs', pkgs, ... }: import ../users/dio/home.nix { inherit inputs' pkgs; };
  squeals = import ../users/squeals/home.nix;
};

Option 2: Use specialArgs for home-manager

Add inputs' to home-manager's specialArgs so all user configs can access it:

home-manager = {
  useGlobalPkgs = true;
  useUserPackages = true;
  specialArgs = { inherit inputs'; };
  users = {
    shift = ../users/shift/home.nix;
    dio = ../users/dio/home.nix;
    squeals = ../users/squeals/home.nix;
  };
};

Option 3: Modify dio/home.nix to not require inputs' (Not recommended)

This would break the dots framework integration.

Implementation Plan

  1. Option 1: Update hosts/shulkerbox.nix to properly pass inputs' to user configs
  2. Option 2: Alternatively, use specialArgs approach for cleaner solution
  3. Test the build to ensure it works
  4. Verify all user configs work correctly
