nix-dev

nix development templates

Usage

flake

Initialize flake in new or existing project with

# Initialize in existing project
nix flake init --template github:randomgoods/nix-dev#<template>

# Create a new project from template
nix flake init --template github:randomgoods/nix-dev#<template> <directory>

where <template> can be one of the following

• ansible
• golang
• nodejs
• shell
• ziglang

The flakes use the unstable channel and package versions provided by default whenever possible. Though it is relatively simple to modify that behaviour by using another nixpkgs channel or selecting packages for specific releases.

shell

The development shell is usable in two ways

1. With nix-direnv, you can enable direnv in the project directory with direnv allow
2. With nix develop you can start the shell manually
