 lxsameer | hey folks, is there any way to patch nixpkgs itself and then use it as an input in flakes? | 19:00:32 |
| samasaur | You can maintain a fork of nixpkgs and use that as a flake input | 19:05:22 |
| samasaur | I’m not sure if there’s a way to say “take the latest nixpkgs on some channel, apply a patch, and use that as a flake input” | 19:05:55 |

You can maintain a fork of nixpkgs and use that as a flake input I was hoping not to do that | 19:07:10 |

 @aidalgol:matrix.org | The Nix developers are still trying to figure out how to support this cleanly. https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/3920 | 03:10:02 |

just to be sure: overlays do not solve your problem? no, I need to patch nixpkgs itself, not the packages it contains | 12:16:25 |

The Nix developers are still trying to figure out how to support this cleanly. https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/3920 this is pretty cool | 12:17:25 |

| lxsameer | hey folks, do you have a development workflow using flakes? if you do, would you mind telling me about it? I need these data for a talk | 16:22:23 |

| tomberek | That's a broad topic. But yes. I tend to start as basic as possible. At first it can be fairly self-contained. Making devShells and packages for a project provides a good sanity check that you really understand what goes into the development process. Then comes CI, with its own complication and integrations. The hardest part is often when trying to have multiple projects that interact. At this point it can get complicated with topics like overlays, monorepos, flakebumps, overrides, follows. Reach out if you have q's. | 00:11:22 |
| lxsameer | cool, few question: 1) what do you use on the CI? 2) how do you manage inter project dependencies and flake bumps | 13:14:31 |
| lxsameer | and tell me more about follows | 13:14:42 |
| lxsameer | thanks for your time | 13:14:50 |
