How can I restart a service on Nixos?










1














I've enabled the emacs daemon in my 'nix' config via:



services.emacs.enable = true;



However I'd now like to restart the daemon, due to changing my emacs config.



How can I restart it?



systemctl list-unit-files | grep emacs does not return any results (it would also be useful to know why).



pstree -s emacs
-+= 00001 root systemd
-+= 01301 chris /nix/store/3hmpbbcv1db42m9g34c9g4q6qinw50x4-systemd-237/lib/systemd/systemd --user
-+= 01351 chris /nix/store/zkss82a853cv9d8w9iq25cp26q3jh4fp-emacs-25.3/bin/.emacs-wrapped --daemon
--= 01414 chris /run/current-system/sw/bin/ispell -a -m -B

  • The module looks quite boring. Did you nixos-rebuild switch?

  • Yup that was done many times (and numerous reboots).

    It seems that something else is wrong. The description of services.emacs.install suggests that you have to be explicit about having a 'user' service: --user. Does that help?
