 figsoda | and you can put that in a separate file or wrap it with a writeText or toFile | 23:15:42 |
 bendlas | that's not what I wanna do. but no problem. either I'll figure it out, or maybe someone who has solved this comes along .. | 23:17:58 |
| bendlas | Repeating this here: Does anybody have a working nixos flake config, that can share nixpkgs config and overlays between nixos modules and other nix tools doing import <nixpkgs>? | 23:21:28 |
| bendlas | * Repeating this here: Does anybody have a working nixos flake config, that can share nixpkgs config and overlays between nixos modules and other nix tools doing import <nixpkgs>? In a way similar to the Using nixpkgs.overlays from configuration.nix section in https://nixos.wiki/wiki/Overlays? | 23:23:03 |
| figsoda | In reply to @figsoda:matrix.org
otherwise you can do stuff like (builtins.getFlake "/path/to/your/nixos/config").nixosConfigurations.<name>.nixpkgs.overlays that's what this does | 23:25:33 |
| bendlas | I see. I was going in that direction (only with flake-compat), but couldn't test it so far because of unrelated difficulties. So I wondered if anyone already had something up. | 23:28:28 |
| bendlas | but I had a hunch that it would work like that, once I pushed it to a repo and didn't need --override-input any more -- which makes getFlake as well as flake-compat break in my test container | 23:32:32 |

 @peddie:matrix.org | hi, I tried to run nix develop on a flake-enabled repository and got error: A hash was specified for <package>, but there is no corresponding git dependency. in the flake.nix file in question, indeed I see a list of outputHashes but no other reference to the package in question (https://github.com/pola-rs/r-polars/blob/main/flake.nix#L23 arrow2-0.16.0). is this a flake problem? the specific command was nix develop github:Sicheng-Pan/r-polars | 02:48:47 |
| @peddie:matrix.org | same error with repo `pola-rs/r-polars` | 02:57:32 |
 kenji | Seems unmaintained, what happens if you remove the hashes?
| 06:34:40 |
| kenji | This doesn't seem like a flake specific problem.
| 06:35:04 |
| @peddie:matrix.org | ok thanks, opened an issue on github | 07:00:51 |
| @peddie:matrix.org | just didn't recognise that error message and initial googling suggested maybe flakes were associated with the error | 07:03:38 |

| didiercrunch | have you tried nix flake update? | 15:30:10 |
| didiercrunch | Quick question: how do I get the timestamp of the revision in a nix flake? I know the revision is self.rev, is there something like self.lastModified? And more importantly, where is that documented? | 15:31:29 |
 @ulli:hrnz.li | https://github.com/NixOS/nix/blob/master/src/nix/flake.md#flake-reference-attributes | 15:36:30 |
| didiercrunch | thanks a lot | 15:37:04 |
| @peddie:matrix.org | didiercrunch: no, I ran the command from outside the repo (I don't have it on my machine, I want to pull it into another flake as a dependency). the flake had not kept up with the rest of the project upstream, but they are addressing it (https://github.com/pola-rs/r-polars/issues/226) | 22:49:44 |

 emily | is using file+https inputs for "evergreen" URLs that change over time not a supported use case? when doing nix flake archive or even just rebuilding my system it seems to always re-request even if they were already downloaded into the store and thus regularly run into "error: NAR hash mismatch in input ..." errors. I guess there's no way to reproducibly download the locked version on another system but it's surprising to me that it doesn't work even when you have it cached already. The example in the manual for the similar tarball input type is https://github.com/NixOS/patchelf/archive/master.tar.gz which would seem to have the same issue... | 19:54:24 |
 @rick:matrix.ciphernetics.nl | You can use archive.org for a stable url | 20:10:47 |
 @adam:valkor.net | If you want a stable GitHub tarball URL, you will need to use a commit or tags | 20:31:01 |
