Auto-mounting with udisks

udiskie, a udisks2 front-end that allows to manage removable media can be used. To enable automounting, first enable udisks2:

❄︎ /etc/nixos/configuration.nix

services.udisks2.enable = true;

Copy

Next enable udiskie via Home Manager:

❄︎ ~/.config/home-manager/home.nix

services.udiskie.enable = true;
# services.udiskie.automount = true; # true by default

Copy

Once the configurations are reflected, USB storage devices will be instantly recognized when inserted without any additional operations needed.
