3 weeks ago Might be best to do something like this, where a script is generated using writeShellApplication with the excluded paths
users.users.different.packages = [
(pkgs.writeShellApplication {
text = "";
name = "ephtools";
})
];Could add an option to search from a directory, instead of having separate commands for root and home directories

For listing ephemeral files - persisted files/directories should be parsed from the impermanence config to be ignored when searching for ephemeral files, along with a list of ephemeral directories to manually exclude (directories known & desired to be ephemeral)
The excluded directories should be what's currently persisted by the current system, so it isn't viable to read the config from
$FLAKE, it's also not viable to use an environmental variable to list the excluded directories, as this wouldn't update until the user logs back in. Could generate the script as part of building the configuration, but I can't think of a clean way to do thisBlocked until I can figure out a clean way to:
