nvchad does not reload correclty

[drishal]

so I am having a small issue where the changes are not actually being applied in the nvchad after a home manager switch. For example if my chadrc is this

local M = {}

M.base46 = {
    theme = "everforest"
}

return M

the theme still remains as onedark, but if I remove a t from everforest and readd it to force a write manually in ~/.config/nvim/lua/chadrc.lua then it actually loads the everforest theme

hm config:

    programs.nvchad = {
      enable = true;
      chadrcConfig= ''
      ${builtins.readFile ../../config/nvim/nvchad/chadrc.lua}
      '';
      hm-activation = true;
      backup = false;
    };

chardrc:

---@type ChadrcConfig
local M = {}

M.base46 = {
    theme = "everforest",
}

return M

I don't use chadrc. It was simply placed to ~/.config/nvim/lua. Is that right?

Then I don't know why it doesn't work. You may want to ask upstream.

I feel like nvchad might need a force reload ? 🤔 I think it's not able to read the change unless and until I manually open the actual file in .config/nvim/lua and trigger a save
