now that I think about it, it wouldnt solve the issue of adding new inputs but I guess it's a start Well it could if it was sort of also evaluated as a flake, except that i had direct access to the other flake | 21:13:40 |

| j-k | what do I do when I want to build an array of derivations?
with https://github.com/06kellyjac/vim-git-overlay/blob/master/ci.nix i can do nix-build ci.nix -A buildOutputs and it builds a bunch of result-x but if I want to do that using flakes I'm getting stuck
I can do blah = pkgs.callPackage ./flake-ci.nix { }; in the root of the flake and it shows in the repl with buildOutputs as an array of derivations but idk how to build it
If I put it in packages it just doesnt show up in the repl and says there's no attribute with nix build .#whatever

You should export it as a single derivation, e.g. with buildEnv | 11:40:59 |

| emmanuelrosa | I use nix-shell to create bash scripts using the -i intepreter flag. But I don't see a way to do the same thing with nix shell. Right now, I have NIX_PATH so that nix-shell continues to work, now that I'm using Nix flakes to build NixOS. But of course that means it can point to a different Nixpkgs. What's the Flakes equivalent of nix-shell -i bash? | 08:16:27 |
| Roos | I don't know of an equivalent to nix-shell, but a more viable hack may be something based on nix-shell -E '(builtins.getFlake "github:nixos/nixpkgs").legacyPackages.${builtins.currentSystem}.hello'. | 08:26:48 |
| emmanuelrosa | Which flake.lock does getFlake reference? | 08:32:09 |
| Roos | The one from the registry: nix registry list | 08:34:59 |
