dream2nix/examples/packages

package examples

This directory contains examples for modules defining packages. All modules can be used as templates to create new packages.

Each package module is defined by a directory containing a default.nix.

How to use

All examples are self contained via their own flake.nix.

To use multiple packages in a repository, keep only each packages' default.nix and put them under a top-level flake.nix instead, as shown in the repo examples in /examples.

Usage example

For example, in order to initialize a php-package from packages/single-language/php-package/:

# create new single package repo for php
$ mkdir my-dream2nix-package
$ cd my-dream2nix-package
$ nix flake init -t github:nix-community/dream2nix#templates.php-package

# git add (in case git is used)
git add .

# interact with the package
$ nix flake show
[...]
$ nix build
