Hi !
Has anyone found a way to have a single configuration "flake" for multiple machines, but update said machines without relying on updating the lock file ?

I'm trying to find a nice way to manage a fleet of devices without constantly making sure that every device is on the latest nixpkgs.

15:14:46
@emma:rory.gayEmma [it/its]i'd recommend maintaining a lock file15:15:29
@emma:rory.gayEmma [it/its]i dont think you'd want your machines to be on different nixpkgs versions because there's a 5 minute difference between when they were deployed15:16:08
@---m---:matrix.org---m--- set a profile picture.15:25:39
@acidbong:envs.netAcid Bong also faster to build closures, cuz they'll share like 80% of derivations 16:03:55
@acidbong:envs.netAcid Bongat least16:04:19
@daslixou:matrix.orgdaslixouHello! I'm Lixou and recently got dragged to the idea of playing with linux systems again. Now, because I am so smart that I directly from the first second on knew a whole own pacman and distro would be a bit much, I thought about helping here instead. (My main reasons for my own distro experiment were that I find nix unreadable in some places and that I thought nix would easily install 20 versions of a lib because well "reproducable" instead of just the newest, which I know now is not the case ^^') So I don't have much experience with nix, but some with linux and heard that you have some clear visions for nix' future and want to port/rewrite the parser in rust. Yeah idk how to end this, I'm just silly :3 I love rust and have way too many projects but some contributions to another rust parser are certainly missing. So if there's a broad idea and issues to the parser, I could help :)16:04:49
@acidbong:envs.netAcid Bong the big point of flakes (or any other pinning system) is exactly the presence of a lockfile 16:05:15

@k900:0upti.meK900 There is some work ongoing on the Rust parser, you want to talk to @piegames about that 16:06:38
@acidbong:envs.netAcid Bong
port/rewrite the parser in Rust
not Lix, that's Tvix and Snix folks

16:06:40
@acidbong:envs.netAcid Bongwelp, Lix isn't planning to use Rust as much as those do16:07:01
@k900:0upti.meK900Lix is definitely planning it16:07:14
@daslixou:matrix.orgdaslixouwell I've read the zulip discussion16:07:25
@k900:0upti.meK900And one of the major blockers towards this has been recently fixed16:07:26
