How to add `eval %sh{}` to kakrc using Home Manager?

Help
1

I’m trying to get kak-lsp[0] up and running. I’ve installed kakoune[1] by enabling it in Home Manager. According to kak-lsp's documentation I should add

eval %sh{kak-lsp --kakoune -s $kak_session}
hook global WinSetOption filetype=(rust|python|go|javascript|typescript|c|cpp) %{
    lsp-enable-window
}

to my ~/.config/kak/kakrc file.

The relevant parts of my Kakoune configuration looks like this

kakoune =
{
	enable = true;
	config =
	{
		hooks =
		[
    			{
					name = "WinSetOption";
					option = "filetype=(javascript)";
					commands = "lsp-enable-window";
    			}
		];
	};
	plugins =
	[
		pkgs.kakounePlugins.kak-lsp
	];
};

My problem is that I can’t find any information in the home-configuration.nix manual page about how to add the eval %sh{kak-lsp --kakoune -s $kak_session} line to the kakrc file.[2]

Do any of you have any suggestions have any suggestion how I should solve this? Any tricks I can do? An option that I’ve totally missed? Let me know!

Does kakoune.extraConfig do the trick? Not sure if evaluation order matters here.
