README.md

comma

Comma runs software without installing it.

Basically it just wraps together nix shell -c and nix-index. You stick a , in front of a command to run it from whatever location it happens to occupy in nixpkgs without really thinking about it.

Installation

  • Nix with Flakes:

    $ nix profile install github:nix-community/comma

  • No flakes:

    $ nix-env -i -f "https://github.com/nix-community/comma/archive/master.tar.gz"

NixOS installation

  • No flakes:

    replace "v1.2.0" with the latest version

    environment.systemPackages =
let
  comma = (import (pkgs.fetchFromGitHub {
    owner = "nix-community";
    repo = "comma";
    rev = "v1.2.0";
    sha256 = "0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000";
  })).default;
in [ comma ];
