@jakehamilton This is part of why it's still experimental. Some of the bad decisions are not feasible to support indefinitely.

A clear benefit of doing more in "user space" is that you get to change your mind about how composition and extension work, without a backcompat nightmare or losing compatibility (and making reproducibility moot).

We're making good progress on fetching, although we did underestimate it at first.
2.27 will have Git LFS and proper submodules support.
Also a bit of locking: 2.26 had a significant fix for relative path flakes (in-repo flake inputs).
More locking, as well as composability and extension/configurability will come.

If I have a nix devShell defined in a nix flake with a bunch of stuff that I use locally do something, is there a way for me to take this devShell and somehow yeet it into an OCI container so I can have this environment in our CI things as well?

Been playing around with numtide's blueprint and devshell to set up a dev environment for a application - turns out, it's pretty fun! 🎉

What started as just a simple ended up with pre-commit hooks, a basic gradle derivation and a module with tests.
This should be a good starting point for my next projects.

@hexa @soupglasses There is a discussion around that on discourse if you're interested

Personally, I find the situation quite bizarre, it kind of completely conflicts with my believe on how a FOSS space should function.

I recently contributed a patch to erofs-utils which has now been released with v1.8.3. It introduces a --hard-dereference option that converts hardlinks to separate inodes, similar to the equally-named flag in tar. It can be used to ensure reproducible image builds on systems where similar files from the root FS might be hard-linked against each other for optimization reasons -- like in the Nix store.

I managed to use the nixpkgs package as a basis and clean up all the cruft apparmor has accumulated in the past 13 years since it was added.
Highlights:
- ALL tests of ALL components pass!
- strictDeps is enabled
- made it all more readable and maintainable

I developed this using flakes in my fork:

3. Chrome, firefox and a generic webkit browser

And sets it up correctly, in an isolated environment? With a nice "hey, this is how you use this development environment" comment as a cherry on top?

The entire Nix file is 46 lines of code. Most of it boilerplate.

I love Nix so much, because you can just super easily contain an entire development environment in one file. This stuff is genuinely

- More flexible than docker
- Easier than docker
- More reliable than docker
- Faster than docker
- More powerful than docker

Why isn't literally everyone using Nix?

I’ve had a really good time with managing development environments using devShells, so I created a nix shell library for generating .gitignore files from github's own templates. It comes with sane defaults as well.

I have released an opinionated Nix Flake template for Deno.

Features include:
- direnv file - for you cool kids
- Pretty good .gitignore
- Built-in git hooks; no setup required, runs deno tooling on commit.
- Linked `.editorconfig`
- Nix formatter already setup

Should be fairly turnkey.

P.S.:

TIL: `git archive` is used by GitHub and other forges to create an archive of a repo to download. git can do unexpected thing when creating such archive, like variable substitution using the `export-subst` feature. So even if a commit is immutable, you can still download different content if a ref or tag changed.

git-scm.com/docs/git-archive/2

Example: github.com/smallstep/cli/blob/

That's a real problem in context of reproducible builds (or just source-pinning in general).

nix, NixOS

Is there currently no official part of the nix lib which allows me to do calculations on IPv6 networks? Stuff like "give me the 8th address in this network". For a system which revolves very much around predictable configuration that looks like an oversight.
Also implementing this in yourself seems to be awful.

Just released nix-weather, a #rust cli-tool to check how many of your NixOS system’s build dependencies are in a binary cache.


$ nix-weather -n myhost -c /etc/config/
Found Nix Requisites in 8 seconds
Checked 2789 packages in 1 seconds
Found 2676/2789 (95.95%) in cache

This is useful to e.g. “check the weather” before going for an update. If the dependencies you want still haven’t been cached, it can be useful to know you can postpone an update to a later day when the weather is better on the cache.

Feel free to try it out from the GitHub mirror (it’s likely faster than my forgejo instance, and I’d appreciate saving the bandwidth).

Running into a nixos-rebuild problem. If I run `nixos-rebuild switch --build-host [my server]`, it builds, but I get the error "sudo: a terminal is required to read the password". Running `nixos-rebuild build` on its own does work, and it doesn't ask for a password since my user's trusted. It's just the final step of switching/booting into the build that fails becaus of sudo.

I did a bunch of searching and tried a dozen different fixes, but none of them worked. The only thing that worked was creating a nixos-rebuild wrapper script that basically splits a single remote switch/boot into two separate commands: a remote build, and then a local switch/boot. Basically it looks for a "--build-host" flag, and if it finds one, it runs `nixos-rebuild build --build-host [blah]`, then runs `nixos-rebuild switch`. Here's what it looks like: github.com/8bitbuddhist/nix-co

I feel like there has to be a better way though. Anyone else run into this issue and find a less convoluted solution?

I quietly dropped a 12-part series about + tonight ✨

One part will unlock each week, $10/mo sponsors get access to the whole thing on day one and can share any article with friends/colleagues, etc.

Enjoy!

Hey and people!

I wrote a matrix bot for nixpkgs pull request notifications.

It‘s like the cool https//nixpk.gs/tracker.html by @qyliss, which shows you which release channels a pull request has reached.

With the bot you can subscribe and get notifications, whenever it reaches a channel instead of hammering F5 in your browser tab.

Just open a query to matrix.to/#/@nixpkgs-bot:maral and send "help".

Looking forward to you all stress testing it!
