Hi,
Could I use guix shell homebank
to not install homebank, because I don´t need it on a daily basis,
but I want to save the data, which I put into homebank?
Yes.The data is stored wherever homebank stored it – which most probably
is somewhere in your home directory.
Much simplified you can image "guix shell" as a wrapper setting some
environment variables to "homebank" ist loaded from /gnu/store, and all
of its dependencies too. This wrapper does not change the path of your
home directory neither will it inhibit writing anywhere. "guix shell"
does not set up a container neither does it provide any kind of storage.
(Side-note: "guix shell -C" starts an container. Anyhow this container
does not provide provide any storage beside granting access to your
normal disk.)
