How to install all package in a package set?

Help

Hello everyone, How can I install all package in a package set?
I tried add it to home.packages ,but i got error: A definition for option home-manager.users.zhou2008.home.packages."[definition 9-entry 1]" is not of type 'package'.

home.packages = with pkgs; [
    kdePackages
    microsoft-edge
    vscode
    vlc
    qq
    tdesktop
    tree htop wget curl git
];

You could try with pkgs; [ ... ] ++ builtins.attrValues kdePackages but I expect that to not work.

error: qt6Packages now uses makeScopeWithSplicing which does not have "overrideScope'", use "overrideScope".

yes, it is not working
btw,is nixos has a package like kde-applications-meta(it exists in archlinux)?

builtins.filter lib.isDerivation (builtins.attrValues kdePackages)

This should filter out all the non-derivation attributes.

Try this:

lib.pipe kdePackages.sources [
  builtins.attrNames
  (builtins.map (n: kdePackages.${n}))
  (builtins.filter (pkg: !pkg.meta.broken))
]

ok,it works,thank you very much!

Would it be possible to filter out a package here? I’ve tried with

(builtins.filter (pkg: pkg.name != "audiotube"))

(there’s currently an open build error with AudioTube) but it doesn’t work.

Of course. You probably want pname instead of name though.

You can launch a REPL (nix repl --file '<nixpkgs>') and use that to look at all the attributes of a package (type kdePackages.audiotube.name to see what that is, and kdePackages.audiotube.pname to see how that’s different).

Thanks!, it works with pname.
