error: attribute 'placeholder' missing

[pcboy]

I'm trying to use the sops-nix placeholders in my nixOS flake and this is strangely failing.

In my home.nix I correctly import the sops-nix home manager module with:

  imports = [
    inputs.sops-nix.homeManagerModules.sops
  ];

  sops = {
    defaultSopsFile = ./secrets/secrets.yaml;
    age.keyFile = "/home/pcboy/.config/sops/age/keys.txt";
    secrets."OPENAPI_KEY" = {};
  };

Then if I'm trying to use the placeholder/template system:

  sops.templates."ollama-config".content = ''
    {
      "models": [
        {
          "title": "OpenAI (gpt 3.5)",
          "provider": "openai",
          "apiKey": "${config.sops.placeholder.OPENAPI_KEY}",
          "model": "gpt-3.5-turbo-0125"
        },
      ]
    }
  '';

I get this:

error:

I also tried to use only the nixOS sops-nix module (instead of the HM one) and use the placeholders, same error.
What am I doing wrong?

I'm on sops-nix from 'github:Mic92/sops-nix/ffed177a9d2c685901781c3c6c9024ae0ffc252b' (2024-02-18)

I have the same issue. I saw a code and as I understand templates support only for nixOs Modules, not for home-manager modules, I hope yet.

[dixslyf]

Indeed. Templates are only available in the NixOS module. There is an existing issue for template support for the HM module: https://github.com/Mic92/sops-nix/issues/423.

I think the python script should be moved into the go code than it will be available on all platforms as it is.
