~~If you want to configure~~ the ~~settings declaratively with within configuration.nix, you will have to instead install transmission-qt or transmission-gtk. Do note that this is using version 3.0~~.~~0 instead~~ of version 4.

Transmission 3 has been deprecated in the 25.05 channel and removed in favor of version 4 in the 25.11 channel onwards.

~~<syntaxHighlight lang=nix>~~

If you still rely on it, consider making a backup before upgrading to transmission 4.

== Service configuration ==

~~You~~ can declaratively ~~change~~ the settings ~~via Nix by modifying~~ <code>services.transmission.settings</code>. [https://search.nixos.org/options?type=packages&query=transmission.settings View the documentation for more info]. ~~Like the previous section has said before, you'll have~~ to ~~use~~ the ~~nixpkgs transmission-gtk or transmission-qt for this to work~~.

The transmission daemon can be enabled declaratively as a <code>systemd</code> service with the settings under <code>services.transmission.settings</code>. [https://search.nixos.org/options?type=packages&query=transmission.settings View the documentation for more info].

Note that <code>services.transmission.package</code> defaults to:

* <code>transmission_3</code> in the deprecated 25.05 channel

* <code>transmission_4</code> from 25.11 onwards
