 atagen | devShells is not a project, it's an output of a nix flake
ie.
{
outputs =
{ self, nixpkgs }:
let
system = "x86_64-linux";
pkgs = nixpkgs.legacyPackages.${system};
in
{
devShells.${system}.default = pkgs.mkShell { packages = [ pkgs.hello ]; };
};
}

| atagen | if you are looking at devenv or something it's totally different and usually unnecessary | 01:47:10 |
| @softmoonworld:matrix.org | In reply to @atagen:ch.atagen.co
if you are looking at devenv or something it's totally different and usually unnecessary oh i see! i need to read up on this. sounds like i was heading in the right direction with a flake, but wasn't using devShells to wrap my mkShell. will report back | 07:27:29 |

| SCOTT-HAMILTON | Hello, I have a environment that is built with buildEnv.
I've added this buildEnv to a devShell's packages and I can confirm that when I run nix develop the environment is accessible.
How can I create a bash default runnable (nix run) such that running it is equivalent to running nix develop and then running the bash script ?

| atagen | are you perhaps looking for shellHook in the mkShell ? | 04:16:03 |
| atagen | using nix run to enter a dev shell seems a little off but if you put the bash script into the shell packages and execute it in shellHook I think you can achieve what you want | 04:17:34 |

 woobilicious | open the flake in nix repl and look at the devShell attrset to see how it works. and I think for nix run to work you just set mainProgram in the meta section of a package, plenty of examples in nixpkgs. | 06:17:36 |

| ayoreis | using a flake with nixos configuration, should i use the imports list in configuration.nix, or the modules list in flake.nix for including hardware-configuration.nix? | 15:34:25 |
| ayoreis | same question with disko-config.nix | 15:55:22 |
| Thibaut | I use this:
{
inputs = {
nixpkgs.url = "github:NixOS/nixpkgs/nixos-25.05";
home-manager.url = "github:nix-community/home-manager/release-25.05";
nixpkgs-unstable.url = "github:NixOS/nixpkgs/nixos-unstable";
nixpkgs-unfree.url = "github:numtide/nixpkgs-unfree";
nixpkgs-unfree.inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs-unstable";
};
outputs = {
self,
nixpkgs,
home-manager,
nixpkgs-unstable,
...
} @ attrs: {
nixosConfigurations.laptopname = nixpkgs.lib.nixosSystem {
system = "x86_64-linux";
specialArgs = attrs;
modules = [
./configuration.nix
];
};
};
}
and my configuration.nix includes everything for me
