 Linux Hackerman | Is there a replacement for --check in the nix command? If not, would it make sense to add one or are there grander CLI-revamping plans that make that not worth the effort to do now? | 07:57:22 |
 K900 | --rebuild | 08:01:11 |
| K900 | For once it's actually better named too | 08:01:18 |
| K900 | (IMHO anyway) | 08:01:22 |
| Linux Hackerman | ooooh | 08:05:59 |
| Linux Hackerman | oops, thanks :D | 08:06:05 |
 piegames | uhm, how the hell do I set NIX_PATH when I have nix-path set in my nix.conf? | 20:59:38 |
| piegames | I have the problem of NIX_PATH and -I being ignored somehow, and I vaguely remember that merging with nix configuration was borked if one uses that? | 21:00:03 |
| piegames | https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/8902 yeah | 21:02:40 |
| piegames | Has https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/9574 been ported to Lix already? | 21:06:56 |
| piegames | and is there a way to make Nix completely disregard the global nix.conf? | 21:07:32 |

and is there a way to make Nix completely disregard the global nix.conf? yes | 21:07:40 |
| jade_ | https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/src/378ec5fb0611e314511a7afc806664205846fc2e/doc/manual/src/contributing/testing.md#L376 | 21:08:15 |
| jade_ | (this list of env-vars is 100% complete afaik as of the time of its writing) | 21:08:46 |
| jade_ | it should certainly be put somewhere more sensible but it is super useful | 21:09:06 |
| piegames | oh gods | 21:10:59 |
| piegames | I was grepping for NIX_CONFIG but of course it's NIX_CONF | 21:11:09 |
| jade_ | yeah i would just look in that document if you are looking for evil env-vars | 21:18:45 |
 KFears (tragedy arc) | They really do look extremely evil | 21:19:55 |
| KFears (tragedy arc) | Is Buildbot UI extremely laggy for anyone else rn? | 21:21:28 |
| jade_ | In reply to @kfears:matrix.org
Is Buildbot UI extremely laggy for anyone else rn? yes, and i have filed an issue to profile it. to be clear it's always been a bit like this, but it is currently unusable which is Not Great | 21:24:06 |
| KFears (tragedy arc) | Got it. It's a little bit sad, because I was just going to look into cure-* tests for lix-installer, which apparently run and do something (mostly fail, though). And I can't run those tests locally. But I'll find some stuff to do | 21:25:53 |
| jade_ | can you run them with nix build? it should be hydraJobs.something | 21:31:46 |
| jade_ | nix repl --extra-experimental-features repl-flake . should let you explore that hierarchy | 21:32:07 |

can you run them with nix build? it should be hydraJobs.something Nope, my machine OOMs out extremely badly | 21:32:23 |
| jade_ | ah | 21:32:33 |
| jade_ | are you trying to run more than one in parallel? it should really not be that bad memory wise | 21:32:45 |
| KFears (tragedy arc) | I'm not actually sure why that happens even when I run with --cores 1 | 21:32:50 |
| jade_ | or is that vm just way overprovisioned | 21:32:55 |
| jade_ | hmm, --cores. you want -j 1 | 21:33:01 |
