- <title>Meta Attributes</title>

- <para>
-  Like Nix packages, NixOS modules can declare meta-attributes to provide extra
-  information. Module meta attributes are defined in the
-  <filename
-    xlink:href="https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/nixos/modules/misc/meta.nix">meta.nix</filename>
-  special module.
- </para>
-
- <para>
-  <literal>meta</literal> is a top level attribute like
-  <literal>options</literal> and <literal>config</literal>. Available
-  meta-attributes are <literal>maintainers</literal> and
-  <literal>doc</literal>.
- </para>
-
- <para>
-  Each of the meta-attributes must be defined at most once per module file.
