Cannot load plugin using home manager

[stellarhoof]

Here's a minimal nix flake

{
  inputs = {
    nixpkgs.url = "github:nixos/nixpkgs/nixos-unstable";
    home-manager.url = "github:nix-community/home-manager";
    home-manager.inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs";
    hyprland.url = "github:hyprwm/Hyprland?ref=v0.30.0";
    hy3.url = "github:outfoxxed/hy3?ref=hl0.30.0";
    hy3.inputs.hyprland.follows = "hyprland";
  };
  outputs = { self, nixpkgs, home-manager, hyprland, hy3 }: {
    homeConfigurations."ah@framework" =
      home-manager.lib.homeManagerConfiguration {
        pkgs = import nixpkgs { system = "x86_64-linux"; };
        modules = [
          hyprland.homeManagerModules.default
          {
            home.stateVersion = "23.05";
            home.username = "ah";
            home.homeDirectory = "/home/ah";
            wayland.windowManager.hyprland.enable = true;
            wayland.windowManager.hyprland.plugins =
              [ hy3.packages.x86_64-linux.hy3 ];
          }
        ];
      };
  };
}

Upon rebuilding my system with home-manager switch I get the following error

Failed to load the following plugins: /nix/store/<etc...>/lib/libhy3.so

[outfoxxed]

are you actually running hyprland v0.30.0, additionally are you running hyprland v0.30.0 from nix, or something else

[stellarhoof]

Nevermind, it works now. I had to override the hyprland package like this since I'm using the default home-manager module instead of the hyprland provided home manager module.

wayland.windowManager.hyprland.package = inputs.hyprland.packages.${pkgs.system}.hyprland;

Perhaps that can be added to the readme?

@outfoxxed i have the same issue but can't get it to work. I think my setup is correct because i can see inside hyprland.conf this line:

plugin=/nix/store/9ws3i38almwmysa37vbk0pwqmvmfmjy0-hy3-0.1/lib/libhy3.so

And also the file exists and all is ok, but i'm still getting that red error message about "failed to load the following plugins".

I'm using Hyprland, built from branch at commit v0.30.0 (). and hy3 version hl0.30.0.

Any idea? Thx.

EDIT: I was pulling from master, instead you have to target the specific release:

hyprland.url = "github:hyprwm/Hyprland?ref=v0.30.0";
hy3 = {
  url = "github:outfoxxed/hy3?ref=hl0.30.0"
  inputs.hyprland.follows = "hyprland";
};

The nixpkgs version says the same thing. I just used a simple

wayland.windowManager.hyprland.plugins = with pkgs.hyprlandPlugins; [ hy3 ];

And the git version fails to build with this as the error:
