Flatpak

Flatpak is a linux application sandboxing and distribution framework

Usage

Using this configuration, flatpak will be installed and ready for use:

/etc/nixos/configuration.nix

services.flatpak.enable = true;

After adding this line to your configuration file, flatpak will be installed, however it is not always added yo your path directly, e.g. when you are using sway it will be not.

To manually add it to path while using a greetd login manager and Sway create a .profile file with an override for your XDG_DATA_DIRS path, e.g.:

.profile

export XDG_DATA_DIRS:$XDG_DATA_DIRS:/usr/share:/var/lib/flatpak/exports/share:$HOME/.local/share/flatpak/exports/share
