Philip Taron (UTC-8) | In reply to @maralorn:maralorn.de I think to really use nom in nixos-rebuild we need to add a tiny bit of behavior to nom. What're you thinking? | 16:20:55 |
maralorn | If I remember correctly nixos-rebuild calls a few nix commands which are currently not supported by the nom drop in. | 16:24:48 |
maralorn | I fix would be trivial, but I never dared to approach that because it requires adding nom specific plumbing directly in the nixpkgs code. Although at this point I think nom has so much traction in the community that opt-in nom support in nixos-rebuild would probably be accepted. | 16:27:19 |

Philip Taron (UTC-8) | It looks like there's just one place that nix-build is called in nixos-rebuild. I'll see if I can substitute it in my own overlay. | 16:28:22 |
Philip Taron (UTC-8) | (Thank you for nom, btw. Beautiful piece of work.) | 16:29:26 |
maralorn | Philip Taron (UTC-8): If you find that a specific change in nom would be helpful, please let me know. | 16:29:46 |
K900 | I'm pretty sure it should be very easy to add | 16:30:12 |
maralorn | Also if you find some solution which could reasonably be upstreamed into nixpkgs, that would be awesome. | 16:30:14 |
maralorn | K900 ⚡️: I also think so. | 16:30:35 |
