Generate /etc/passwd and /etc/group at build time This is a rather large commit that switches user/group creation from using useradd/groupadd on activation to just generating the contents of /etc/passwd and /etc/group, and then on activation merging the generated files with the files that exist in the system. This makes the user activation process much cleaner, in my opinion. The users.extraUsers.<user>.uid and users.extraGroups.<group>.gid must all be properly defined (if <user>.createUser is true, which it is by default). My pull request adds a lot of uids/gids to config.ids to solve this problem for existing nixos services, but there might be configurations that break because this change. However, this will be discovered during the build. Option changes introduced by this commit: * Remove the options <user>.isSystemUser and <user>.isAlias since they don't make sense when generating /etc/passwd statically. * Add <group>.members as a complement to <user>.extraGroups. * Add <user>.passwordFile for setting a user's password from an encrypted (shadow-style) file. * Add users.mutableUsers which is true by default. This means you can keep managing your users as previously, by using useradd/groupadd manually. This is accomplished by merging the generated passwd/group file with the existing files in /etc on system activation. The merging of the files is simplistic. It just looks at the user/group names. If a user/group exists both on the system and in the generated files, the system entry will be kept un-changed and the generated entries will be ignored. The merging itself is performed with the help of vipw/vigr to properly lock the account files during edit. If mutableUsers is set to false, the generated passwd and group files will not be merged with the system files on activation. Instead they will simply replace the system files, and overwrite any changes done on the running system. The same logic holds for user password, if the <user>.password or <user>.passwordFile options are used. If mutableUsers is false, password will simply be replaced on activation. If true, the initial user passwords will be set according to the configuration, but existing passwords will not be touched. I have tested this on a couple of different systems and it seems to work fine so far. If you think this is a good idea, please test it. This way of adding local users has been discussed in issue #103 (and this commit solves that issue).

passwordDescription = ''
The options <option>hashedPassword</option>,
<option>password</option> and <option>passwordFile</option>
controls what password is set for the user.
<option>hashedPassword</option> overrides both
<option>password</option> and <option>passwordFile</option>.
<option>password</option> overrides <option>passwordFile</option>.
If none of these three options are set, no password is assigned to
the user, and the user will not be able to do password logins.
If the option <option>users.mutableUsers</option> is true, the
password defined in one of the three options will only be set when
the user is created for the first time. After that, you are free to
change the password with the ordinary user management commands. If
<option>users.mutableUsers</option> is false, you cannot change
user passwords, they will always be set according to the password
options.

hashedPasswordDescription = ''
To generate a hashed password run <literal>mkpasswd -m sha-512</literal>.
If set to an empty string (<literal>""</literal>), this user will
be able to log in without being asked for a password (but not via remote
services such as SSH, or indirectly via <command>su</command> or
<command>sudo</command>). This should only be used for e.g. bootable
live systems. Note: this is different from setting an empty password,
which ca be achieved using <option>users.users.&lt;name?&gt;.password</option>.
If set to <literal>null</literal> (default) this user will not
be able to log in using a password (i.e. via <command>login</command>
command).

Increase max group name length to 32 characters With #36556, a check was introduced to make sure the user and group names do not exceed their respective maximum length. This is in part because systemd also enforces that length, but only at runtime. So in general it's a good idea to catch as much as we can during evaluation time, however the maximum length of the group name was set to 16 characters according groupadd(8). The maximum length of the group names however is a compile-time option and even systemd allows more than 16 characters. In the mentioned pull request (#36556) there was already a report that this has broken evaluation for people out there. I have also checked what other distributions are doing and they set the length to either 31 characters or 32 characters, the latter being more common. Unfortunately there is a difference between the maximum length enforced by the shadow package and systemd, both for user name lengths and group name lengths. However, systemd enforces both length to have a maximum of 31 characters and I'm not sure if this is intended or just a off-by-one error in systemd. Nevertheless, I choose 32 characters simply to bring it in par with the maximum user name length. For the NixOS assertion however, I use a maximum length of 31 to make sure that nobody accidentally creates services that contain group names that systemd considers invalid because of a length of 32 characters.

Generate /etc/passwd and /etc/group at build time This is a rather large commit that switches user/group creation from using useradd/groupadd on activation to just generating the contents of /etc/passwd and /etc/group, and then on activation merging the generated files with the files that exist in the system. This makes the user activation process much cleaner, in my opinion. The users.extraUsers.<user>.uid and users.extraGroups.<group>.gid must all be properly defined (if <user>.createUser is true, which it is by default). My pull request adds a lot of uids/gids to config.ids to solve this problem for existing nixos services, but there might be configurations that break because this change. However, this will be discovered during the build. Option changes introduced by this commit: * Remove the options <user>.isSystemUser and <user>.isAlias since they don't make sense when generating /etc/passwd statically. * Add <group>.members as a complement to <user>.extraGroups. * Add <user>.passwordFile for setting a user's password from an encrypted (shadow-style) file. * Add users.mutableUsers which is true by default. This means you can keep managing your users as previously, by using useradd/groupadd manually. This is accomplished by merging the generated passwd/group file with the existing files in /etc on system activation. The merging of the files is simplistic. It just looks at the user/group names. If a user/group exists both on the system and in the generated files, the system entry will be kept un-changed and the generated entries will be ignored. The merging itself is performed with the help of vipw/vigr to properly lock the account files during edit. If mutableUsers is set to false, the generated passwd and group files will not be merged with the system files on activation. Instead they will simply replace the system files, and overwrite any changes done on the running system. The same logic holds for user password, if the <user>.password or <user>.passwordFile options are used. If mutableUsers is false, password will simply be replaced on activation. If true, the initial user passwords will be set according to the configuration, but existing passwords will not be touched. I have tested this on a couple of different systems and it seems to work fine so far. If you think this is a good idea, please test it. This way of adding local users has been discussed in issue #103 (and this commit solves that issue).

I have tested this on a couple of different systems and it seems to work fine so far. If you think this is a good idea, please test it. This way of adding local users has been discussed in issue #103 (and this commit solves that issue).

Generate /etc/passwd and /etc/group at build time This is a rather large commit that switches user/group creation from using useradd/groupadd on activation to just generating the contents of /etc/passwd and /etc/group, and then on activation merging the generated files with the files that exist in the system. This makes the user activation process much cleaner, in my opinion. The users.extraUsers.<user>.uid and users.extraGroups.<group>.gid must all be properly defined (if <user>.createUser is true, which it is by default). My pull request adds a lot of uids/gids to config.ids to solve this problem for existing nixos services, but there might be configurations that break because this change. However, this will be discovered during the build. Option changes introduced by this commit: * Remove the options <user>.isSystemUser and <user>.isAlias since they don't make sense when generating /etc/passwd statically. * Add <group>.members as a complement to <user>.extraGroups. * Add <user>.passwordFile for setting a user's password from an encrypted (shadow-style) file. * Add users.mutableUsers which is true by default. This means you can keep managing your users as previously, by using useradd/groupadd manually. This is accomplished by merging the generated passwd/group file with the existing files in /etc on system activation. The merging of the files is simplistic. It just looks at the user/group names. If a user/group exists both on the system and in the generated files, the system entry will be kept un-changed and the generated entries will be ignored. The merging itself is performed with the help of vipw/vigr to properly lock the account files during edit. If mutableUsers is set to false, the generated passwd and group files will not be merged with the system files on activation. Instead they will simply replace the system files, and overwrite any changes done on the running system. The same logic holds for user password, if the <user>.password or <user>.passwordFile options are used. If mutableUsers is false, password will simply be replaced on activation. If true, the initial user passwords will be set according to the configuration, but existing passwords will not be touched. I have tested this on a couple of different systems and it seems to work fine so far. If you think this is a good idea, please test it.
