# user
The drawer's greeting row (avatar, a greeting, real name) and the page
it opens, which edits the user's details where other programs read them.
| Field | Written to |
| --- | --- |
| name | AccountsService `RealName` (which also rewrites the passwd GECOS that LibreOffice prefills from), `~/.config/emaildefaults` `FullName`, git `user.name` with the surname as an initial |
| email | AccountsService `Email`, emaildefaults `EmailAddress`, git `user.email` |
| avatar | `~/.user-icon.jpg` (converted to JPEG with `magick`), which hyprlock, the udt SDDM theme and the rofi power menu read; then AccountsService `IconFile`, so its consumers agree |
| language, location | AccountsService |
| signing key | git `user.signingkey`; None unsets it |
Location suggests places from OpenStreetMap's Nominatim as you type:
what is typed is sent to `nominatim.openstreetmap.org`, 1s after typing
stops and from three characters, per its usage policy. Up/Down, Enter and
Escape work the list. Offline, the field is plain text. The Git section
shows the name and email git will get, read-only, and the signing key;
"More git settings" closes the drawer and opens the full global git config
(`../git/`) in the settings window.
The greeting is picked at random on each drawer open, never the same one
twice running, from `~/.config/quickshell/greetings`: one per line, `{user}`
for the login name, `#` comments and blank lines skipped. Without the file,
five built-in ones.
`userctl` does all reading and writing; the page only calls it. Polkit lets a
user edit their own AccountsService entry without a prompt. A new detail is
one entry in `UserPage.qml`'s `fields` and one `case` in `userctl`.
When AccountsService cannot be read, `userctl get` prints one `error=`
line instead of blank fields; the page shows it and disables Save. The
signing key list skips revoked, expired and non-signing keys, and every
write passes its value after `--`, so one starting with a dash is not
taken for an option.
Checks: `./test-userctl.sh` (stubs every store) and
`node desktop/modules/user/test_user.js`.
Not here: the password (`passwd` in a terminal; changing it also leaves the
login keyring on the old one), `~/.face.icon` (nothing here reads it), social links (nothing reads them). Values are read
when the page opens, not watched.
