This adds several improvements the previously introduced `services.weechat` module: * Dropped `services.weechat.init` as the initialization script can now be done on package-level since 2af41719bc using the `configure` function. * Added `sessionName` option to explicitly configure a name for the `screen` session (by default: weechat-screen). * Added `binary` option to configure the binary name (e.g. `weechat-headless`). * Added docs regarding `screen` session and `weechat.service`.

<para>
|
|
By default, the module creates a
|
|
<literal><link xlink:href="https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/">systemd</link></literal> unit
|
|
which runs the chat client in a detached
|
|
<literal><link xlink:href="https://www.gnu.org/software/screen/">screen</link></literal> session.
|
|
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
This can be done by enabling the <literal>weechat</literal> service:
|
|
|
|
<programlisting>
|
|
{ ... }:
|
|
|
|
{
|
|
<link linkend="opt-services.weechat.enable">services.weechat.enable</link> = true;
|
|
}
|
|
</programlisting>
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
The service is managed by a dedicated user
|
|
named <literal>weechat</literal> in the state directory
|
|
<literal>/var/lib/weechat</literal>.
|
|
</para>
|
|
</section>

|
<section><title>Re-attaching to WeeChat</title>
|
|
<para>
|
|
WeeChat runs in a screen session owned by a dedicated user. To explicitly
|
|
allow your another user to attach to this session, the <literal>screenrc</literal> needs to be tweaked
|
|
by adding <link xlink:href="https://www.gnu.org/software/screen/manual/html_node/Multiuser.html#Multiuser">multiuser</link> support:
|
|
|
|
<programlisting>
|
|
{
|
|
<link linkend="opt-programs.screen.screenrc">programs.screen.screenrc</link> = ''
|
|
multiuser on
|
|
acladd normal_user
|
|
'';
|
|
}
|
|
</programlisting>
|
|
|
|
Now, the session can be re-attached like this:
|
|
|
|
<programlisting>
|
|
screen -r weechat-screen
|
|
</programlisting>
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
<emphasis>The session name can be changed using <link linkend="opt-services.weechat.sessionName">services.weechat.sessionName.</link></emphasis>
