[PATCH 0/5] Some basic Home Shepherd Services |

From: "Janneke Nieuwenhuizen" <janneke@gnu.org>
Hi!
I've been waiting for Guix Home to offer some basic shepherd services for most
used daemons, replacing the neat shepherd hack described in
https://guix.gnu.org/en/blog/2020/gnu-shepherd-user-services/
that I've been using, and am a bit puzzled as to why this didn't happen. Are
people using Guix Home?
Anyway, here's my attempt to address this, adding ssh-agent, git-daemon, and
also the probably less-used kodi and znc that I use on my home server.
To add a git-daemon and ssh-agent to your guix home profile, you need
a home-configuration.scm that has something like this:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(use-modules (gnu home)
(gnu home services shells)
(gnu home services shepherd)
(gnu home services shepherd-xyz)
(gnu packages)
(gnu packages base)
(gnu services)
(guix gexp))
(services
(list (service home-shepherd-service-type)
(service home-git-daemon-service-type)
(service home-ssh-agent-service-type)))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
The weird thing is that after running
./pre-inst-env guix home reconfigure home-configuration.scm
the shepherd starts automatically, starting ssh-agent and git-daemon. Upon a
fresh login, however, it seems the shepherd must still be started manually,
kind of defeating its purpose as a home service...
Thoughts?
Greetings,
Janneke

I've pushed the attached patch to take care of this. Pretty neat!
Closing this bug now, if we want to address the git-daemon "transform"
and #:user "git-daemon" issue better to open a new bug report.
Greetings,
