Nixpkgs: package request: howdy Windows Hello face recognition on linux

Created on 4 Jan 2020  Â·  2Comments  Â·  Source: NixOS/nixpkgs

Project description
Howdy provides Windows Helloâ„¢ style authentication for Linux. Use your built-in IR emitters and camera in combination with facial recognition to prove who you are.

Using the central authentication system (PAM), this works everywhere you would otherwise need your password: Login, lock screen, sudo, su, etc.

I've got an asus ux433 and I really like windows hello but I want to use nixos, that's why I'ld like to get this package! It is already available on arch linux and some other distros. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Howdy

Thank you for your contributions.

This has been automatically marked as stale because it has had no activity for 180 days.

If this is still important to you, we ask that you leave a comment below. Your comment can be as simple as "still important to me". This lets people see that at least one person still cares about this. Someone will have to do this at most twice a year if there is no other activity.

Here are suggestions that might help resolve this more quickly:

  1. Search for maintainers and people that previously touched the related code and @ mention them in a comment.
  2. Ask on the NixOS Discourse.
  3. Ask on the #nixos channel on irc.freenode.net.

Still important to me.
