flyx | can I use Nix Flakes purely as a solution for remote compiling? like, my (otherwise Nix-less) project requires me to build it on a remote machine and I have some hacky rsync-up---compile---rsync-down script which I want to replace with something more sensible, and Nix provides remote building capabilities. so if I write an impure Flake that just calls the system compiler and doesn’t use any Nix features, would this be a feasible solution for remote compiling? | 16:01:09 |
tomberek | The remote build system is powerful, but doing this and breaking out of the sandbox in a safe way will take some care. But yes, this can be done; I used this as a quick data transformation engine orchestrated by Hydra, you just gotta be careful and ensure you end up with the properties you want. | 16:44:21 |
