Edit: my issues came from copying source .nix configurations for the pig manager, not configurations that I would include on my computer. Finding how to include what where was much easier with search.nixos.org

- How to install electrum wallet on nixos? I found this default.nix for electrum and thought it would be as easy as
nix-build default.nix but was mistaken. It says " cannot evaluate a function that has an argument without a value ('fetchurl')
Nix attempted to evaluate a function as a top level expression" but on a later line that value is inputted to the function (if I understand right)
src = fetchurl { url = "https://download.electrum.org/${version}/Electrum-${version}.tar.gz"; sha256 = "sha256-BxxC1xVKToUjgBo4mEeK9Tdhbd/+doHcTTJsXDtaELg="; };
