I don't know how to adapt those settings to the corresponding module - there are often differences in naming and hierarchy conventions - and there are other NixOS-specific considerations with regards to its shared-nothing architecture.

While it is technically possible to adapt the information in the Arch wiki to NixOS, you need a strong understanding of the software, how it was packaged for NixOS, and NixOS itself to do it effectively. Once you do figure it out, it's pretty straightforward, but that can be hours as opposed to minutes with Arch.

Modern modules often have a settings option which directly links to the upstream documentation and you basically write the options from upstream into the settings option.

I look all the time in all kind of sources and skip all the tedious and annoying installation steps and just look at the described configs.
