pkgs.discord

Nixpkgs provides all three of Discord's release channels, accessible as <code>pkgs.discord</code>, <code>pkgs.discord-ptb</code>, and <code>pkgs.discord-canary</code> respectively. Add any of the previous derivations to your package's configuration. For [[NixOS]] this will be in <code>environment.systemPackages</code> or <code>users.users.<name>.packages</code>.<syntaxhighlight lang="nixos">

pkgs.discord-ptb

# This will install Discord PTB for all users of the system

environment.systemPackages = with pkgs; [

discord-ptb

];

~~to your <code>environment~~.~~systemPackages</code> (NixOS) or <code>home~~.packages</~~code~~> ~~(Home Manager).~~

# This installs Discord PTB only for the user "alice"

users.users.alice.packages = with pkgs; [

discord-ptb

];

}

</syntaxhighlight>

~~Additionally~~, ~~see~~ [~~[Unfree software~~]~~] to allow Discord to be installed.~~

=== Unofficial Clients ===

Nixpkgs also provides a vast variety of community developed/modded Discord clients, which can usually serve as drop-in replacements for the official discord client with an extended set of features.
