Add a new type, inheriting 'types.str' but checking whether the value
doesn't contain any newline characters.
The motivation comes from a problem with the
'users.users.${u}.openssh.authorizedKeys' option.
It is easy to unintentionally insert a newline character at the end of a
string, or even in the middle, for example:
restricted_ssh_keys = command: keys:
let
prefix = ''
command="${command}",no-pty,no-agent-forwarding,no-port-forwarding,no-X11-forwarding
'';
in map (key: "${prefix} ${key}") keys;
The 'prefix' string ends with a newline, which ends up in the middle of
a key entry after a few manipulations.
This is problematic because the key file is built by concatenating all
the keys with 'concatStringsSep "\n"', with result in two entries for
the faulty key:
''
command="...",options...
MY_KEY
''
This is hard to debug and might be dangerous. This is now caught at
build time.
