Modules that are imported can also be disabled. The option declarations and config implementation of a disabled module will be ignored, allowing another to take it's place. This can be used to import a set of modules from another channel while keeping the rest of the system on a stable release.

<literal>disabledModules</literal> is a top level attribute like <literal>imports</literal>, <literal>options</literal> and <literal>config</literal>. It contains a list of modules that will be disabled. This can either be the full path to the module or a string with the filename relative to the modules path (eg. &lt;nixpkgs/nixos/modules&gt; for nixos).

This example will replace the existing postgresql module with the version defined in the nixos-unstable channel while keeping the rest of the modules and packages from the original nixos channel. This only overrides the module definition, this won't use postgresql from nixos-unstable unless explicitly configured to do so.
