@fzakaria:one.ems.hostfzakariagnight! I think the Input has to actually write to the store ? so dummy:// isn't good enough (i think?)05:27:54
@fzakaria:one.ems.hostfzakaria I thought maybe there could be memory:// but I got it all working... the auto registering of things so you can just do "auto" was really confusing to learn 05:28:21
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn EricsonI have a draft PR for that05:36:32
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn Ericsonor maybe it's not even draft05:36:38
@Ericson2314:matrix.orgJohn Ericsonfeel free to go take it05:36:43

@fzakaria:one.ems.hostfzakariai can take it up after; right now having the store be temporary directory for just fetching inputs feels okay -- but I want it.15:35:40
@fzakaria:one.ems.hostfzakariais there a way to use Nix as a C++ lib in a separate project?15:35:49

In reply to @fzakaria:one.ems.host
is there a way to use Nix as a C++ lib in a separate project?
Pretty easy to do so. Just needs pkg-config integration in your build system. I assume you are going to use bazel?
