This commit introduces two new properties: `enable` and `type`, to replace the `enabled` property. `enable` has the same meaning as is common across nixpkgs. `type` has the same meaning as the existing `enabled` property. `enabled` property is now deprecated and will be removed in a future release. Fixes #180654

ibus-engines.typing-booster
This package is an ibus-based completion method to speed up typing.
Activating the engine
IBus needs to be configured accordingly to activate typing-booster
. The configuration depends on the desktop manager in use. For detailed instructions, please refer to the upstream docs.
On NixOS, you need to explicitly enable ibus
with given engines before customizing your desktop to use typing-booster
. This can be achieved using the ibus
module:
{ pkgs, ... }: {
i18n.inputMethod = {
enable = true;
type = "ibus";
ibus.engines = with pkgs.ibus-engines; [ typing-booster ];
};
}
Using custom hunspell dictionaries
The IBus engine is based on hunspell
to support completion in many languages. By default, the dictionaries de-de
, en-us
, fr-moderne
es-es
, it-it
, sv-se
and sv-fi
are in use. To add another dictionary, the package can be overridden like this:
ibus-engines.typing-booster.override { langs = [ "de-at" "en-gb" ]; }
Note: each language passed to langs
must be an attribute name in pkgs.hunspellDicts
.
Built-in emoji picker
The ibus-engines.typing-booster
package contains a program named emoji-picker
. To display all emojis correctly, a special font such as noto-fonts-color-emoji
is needed:
On NixOS, it can be installed using the following expression:
{ pkgs, ... }: {
fonts.packages = with pkgs; [ noto-fonts-color-emoji ];
}
