gnu: home: services: Add home-mpv-service-type.

2025-05-13T01:55:49Z

This commit adds a new service type to generate configuration file for the mpv media player. Originally I attempted to use Guix Records (via define-configuration) for this, but ran into the bug #74748, so I had to switch to procedures instead. The usage is (hopefully) sufficiently described in the documentation. When the bug is resolved, I will update it to use define-configuration instead. The full list of supported options is documented, however I decided to *not* document types and purpose for each individual fields. While I had mostly working prototype to extract the documentation from mpv, once I realized it would be few 10k of lines added, I decided it is not worth it. It would bloat the .texi file (by more than 50%), be hard to maintain and, in my opinion, would not provide enough value to justify that. The current version seems like sane middle ground. * gnu/home/services/mpv.scm: New file. * gnu/local.mk (GNU_SYSTEM_MODULES): Register it. * doc/guix.texi (mpv Media Player): Document it.
