Description
This folder contains configuration for Nix, a purely functional package manager used by the Status Go for its build process.
Configuration
The main config file is nix/nix.conf and its main purpose is defining the binary caches which allow download of packages to avoid having to compile them yourself locally.
Shell
In order to access an interactive Nix shell a user should run make shell.
The Nix shell is started in this repo via the nix/scripts/shell.sh script, which is a wrapper around the nix-shell command and is intended for use with our main Makefile. This allows for an implicit use of nix-shell as the default shell in the Makefile.
⚠️ WARNING: To have Nix pick up all changes a new nix-shell needs to be spawned.
Resources
You can learn more about Nix by watching these presentations:
- Nix Fundamentals (PDF, src)
- Nix in Status (PDF, src)
And you can read nix/DETAILS.md for more information.
