[Nix-dev] Services.. / I'd like to copy paste the files in most simple cases

[Marc Weber]

Maybe you can tell me your opninion as well 

Now:
You need to edit
  to add/ register the service:
    upstart-jobs/default.nix 
  the service file itself (or directory):
    service.nix
  the documentation:
    system/options.nix 

I'd propose to move everything (when possible) into one file containing
documentation and the service itself in a Plug & Play style.
If you need an overview o all options you can use the automatically

generated docs, right?

So what input does one service file need?
At least
{ thisConfig # configuration for this service
, allConfigurations # all configuration in case you need information
                    # about other services as well (apache or whatsoever)

, allPackages
, lib
} : {
  doc = # the optionlist
  service = # the service implementation generating the upstart files
etc
}

Then you can just copy the file, adjust and role on.
Do you like this?

I'm not sure how X window managers are implemented right now.
But I'd like to have something like this there as well. I'll
have some more spare time the next days.
