# Load environment variables from `nix-shell` and export it out.
#
# Usage: use_nix [-s <nix-expression>] [-w <path>] [-w <path>] ...
#   -s nix-expression: The nix expression to use for building the shell environment.
#   -w path: watch a file for changes. It can be specified multiple times. The
#      shell specified with -s is automatically watched.
#
#   If no nix-expression were given with -s, it will attempt to find and load
#   the shell using the following files in order: shell.nix and default.nix.
#
# Example:
#   -  use_nix
#   -  use_nix -s shell.nix -w .nixpkgs-version.json
#
# The dependencies pulled by nix-shell are added to Nix's garbage collector
# roots, such that the environment remains persistent.
#
# Nix-shell is invoked only once per environment, and the output is cached for
# better performance. If any of the watched files change, then the environment
# is rebuilt.
#
# To remove old environments, and allow the GC to collect their dependencies:
# rm -f .direnv
