linuxkit-builder

Installation

With a standard Nix installation, and a simple SSH-based remote

Install the packages into the default profile:

sudo nix-env -f . -p /nix/var/nix/profiles/default -iA linuxkit-builder

As your user, run:

linuxkit-builder

Then when it says so, run:

~/.nixpkgs/linuxkit-builder/finish-setup.sh

Now you can run builds:

nix-build example.nix

With a patched Nix installation and the script-based remote

Install the packages into the default profile:

sudo nix-env -f . -p /nix/var/nix/profiles/default -iA nixUnstable nix-script-store-plugin linuxkit-builder

Update /etc/nix/nix.conf with the plugin:

plugin-files = /nix/var/nix/profiles/default/lib/nix/plugins/libnix-script-store.dylib

Restart nix-daemon:

sudo launchctl unload /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.nixos.nix-daemon.plist
sudo launchctl load /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.nixos.nix-daemon.plist

As your user, run:

linuxkit-builder

Then when it says so, run:

~/.nixpkgs/linuxkit-builder/finish-setup.sh

and follow the instructions starting at the end (skipping #1 and #2)

Restart nix-daemon:

sudo launchctl unload /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.nixos.nix-daemon.plist
sudo launchctl load /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.nixos.nix-daemon.plist

Now you can run builds:

nix-build example.nix

Stopping the builder

If you've run the builder at the terminal, you can just type stop at the prompt. Or, you can run:

kill $(cat ~/.nixpkgs/linuxkit-builder/nix-state/hyperkit.pid)
