How to determine what and how to configure system tray widgets

[vendion]

When using the overrideConfig option to make settings declarative, there are some system tray widgets that I would like to change from the default behavior, but my changes get lost the next time I log back in (this is to be expected). Looking at this

plasma-manager/modules/widgets/system-tray.nix

Line 139 in 7911a0f

configs = mkOption {

it seems to imply that I can pass in custom settings to widgets, which is what I want, but using the battery example doesn't seem to work.

For example, I added the following to my config and did a rebuild, but when I relaunched Plasma the "Show battery percentage on icon" setting was still off:

configs = {
    battery.showPercentage = true;
    keyboardLayout.displayStyle = "label";
    "org.kde.plasma.devicenotifier".config.General = {
      removableDevices = false;
     nonRemovableDevices = true;
    }
};;

Additionally, I would like to configure the weather widget, as that loses my location setting every time I log in as well.

Configuring system tray widgets is currently not possible due to the plasma API scripting being outdated and not supporting nested containments, see: https://invent.kde.org/documentation/develop-kde-org/-/issues/235
