Re: how to split config.scm in multiple files

[Julien Lepiller]

Hi,

You can create a module, say /etc/config/base-services.scm

To include it, you need to make it a module, so in base-services.scm:

(define-module (base-services)
  #:use-module (gnu services base)
  …
  #:export (my-services))
(define my-services (cons*.… %base-services))

And in your config.scm, you can import this module like so:

(add-to-load-path "/etc/config")
(use-modules (base-services))

(operating-system
  …
  (services my-services))

I don't think you can include a scheme file in the operating-system record 
directly, but maybe someone will prove me wrong :)
