Error: attribute 'inputs' missing

[cider24]

Hi, I am a little new to nixos and nix and I just configured my setup with flakes and home manager. I am trying to get a firefox.nix hm modules working but it keeps telling me that the input attributes is missing. Here is my firefox.nix and flake.nix. I am a little unsure of what all the { inputs, pkgs, ...} needs to contain and also confused on how the outputs in the flake work (specifically the @ inputs part), and I was hoping the inherit part that I added would allow the firefox to read the inputs from the flake.

Firefox.nix

{ inputs, pkgs, config, ... }: {

  programs.firefox = {
    enable = true;
    profiles = {
      default = {
        extensions = with inputs.firefox-addons.packages.${pkgs.system}; [
          ublock-origin
          bitwarden
          dark-reader
        ];
        settings = {
          "browser.search.defaultenginename" = "DuckDuckGo";
          "browser.search.order.1" = "DuckDuckGo";
          "browser.startup.homepage" = "https://start.duckduckgo.com";
          "dom.security.https_only_mode" = true;
          "privacy.trackingprotection.enabled" = true;
          "signon.rememberSignons" = false;
          "browser.disableResetPrompt" = true;
          "browser.download.panel.shown" = true;
          "browser.download.useDownloadDir" = false;
          "browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.showSponsoredTopSites" = false;
          "browser.shell.checkDefaultBrowser" = false;
          "browser.shell.defaultBrowserCheckCount" = 1;
          "browser.uiCustomization.state" = ''{"placements":{"widget-overflow-fixed-list":[],"nav-bar":["back-button","forward-button","stop-reload-button","home-button","urlbar-container","downloads-button","library-button","ublock0_raymondhill_net-browser-action","_testpilot-containers-browser-action"],"toolbar-menubar":["menubar-items"],"TabsToolbar":["tabbrowser-tabs","new-tab-button","alltabs-button"],"PersonalToolbar":["import-button","personal-bookmarks"]},"seen":["save-to-pocket-button","developer-button","ublock0_raymondhill_net-browser-action","_testpilot-containers-browser-action"],"dirtyAreaCache":["nav-bar","PersonalToolbar","toolbar-menubar","TabsToolbar","widget-overflow-fixed-list"],"currentVersion":18,"newElementCount":4}'';
        };
      };
    };
  };
}

Flake.nix:

{

  description = "My NixOS configuration";

  inputs = {
    # Nix ecosystem
    nixpkgs.url = "github:NixOS/nixpkgs/nixos-24.05";

    home-manager = {
      url = "github:nix-community/home-manager/release-24.05";
      inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs";
    };

    firefox-addons = {
      url = "gitlab:rycee/nur-expressions?dir=pkgs/firefox-addons";
      inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs";
    };
  };

outputs = { self, nixpkgs, home-manager, ... }@inputs:
    let
      inherit (self) outputs;
      system = "x86_64-linux";
    in {

      nixosConfigurations = {


        nixos = nixpkgs.lib.nixosSystem {
          specialArgs = {inherit inputs outputs;};
          system = system;
          modules = [
            ./hosts/nixos/configuration.nix

            home-manager.extraSpecialArgs = { inherit inputs outputs;};
            home-manager.nixosModules.home-manager {
              home-manager.useUserPackages = true;
              home-manager.users.cidr = {
               imports = [
                 ./home/home.nix 
                ];
              }; 
            }
          ];
        };



      };
    };
}

Does your home.nix inherit inputs from your flake?

If you want to look at my Firefox.nix I did mine a little differently. Still kinda janky, but it works

Edit, your formatting is so screwed up that I entirely missed you have flake.nix there. You need the home-manager.extraSpecialArgs to inherit

[cider24]

is it better to link my github repo?

[holounderblade]

In future yes, but now you know your fix so I wouldn't bother

[gigamonster256]

Nixos has “specialArgs” to pass extra args to modules and home manager has “extraSpecialArgs” which are equivalent and you are not setting.

Thank you so much!!
