Feature Request: pay-respects

[muItilingualism]

Description

pay-respects, a terminal command correction program, alternative to thefuck, written in Rust. Available as programs.pay-respects.

Hi, pay-respects was added in NixOS 24.11, and I'd like it to be in home-manager as well, since thefuck does not seem to be maintained.

Relevant links:

• pay-respects repo
• nixpkgs pay-respects request
• nixpkgs pay-respects PR
• 24.11 release notes mentioning pay-respects

Thanks!

We should also add an option to specify the suggestion rules, written in Nix and converted to TOML files which get inserted at the required location (~/.config/pay-respects/rules/<command_name>.toml), e.g.:

programs.pay-respects.rules = {
  cargo = {
    # Rule file `cargo.toml` for `cargo` command.
  };
  make = {
    # Rule file `make.toml` for `make` command.
  };
  # ...
}

currently the module does not work for nushell, as there is the placeholder "[<alias>]" which should be an alias like the default "f".

Perhaps an HM option should be added to change the alias used

The config option for nushell fundamentally doesn’t work with nixos. This is because the pay-respects nushell command attempts to manually write its alias to the configuration file, which doesn't work, as it is read-only.

Additionally, I haven’t been able to get the command to work properly at all. I’ve tried various arguments with pay-respects nushell --alias ..., but none of them worked as expected. But this doesn't really matter, as my solution writes the command by itself.

I'll create a pr shortly, but the nushell integration is a bit scuffed, as it relies on internal code and breaks as soon as the nushell integration doesn't print the command in the first line anymore.

}

I'm not sure this will work since the rules must be recompiled and don't hot load them in.

@ALameLlama For versions >=0.6, runtime rules support is provided by runtime-rules module. For versions 0.5.x, rules can be read at runtime with runtime-rules feature. Older versions only support compile-time rules.

That's awesome, I hope people still end up upstreaming changes instead of keeping it to themselves
