Using Nix on Alpine
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
The Alpine Nix package assumes a multi-user Nix setup. Therefore,
|
|
it requires users who are supposed to be able to use Nix to be
|
|
added to the `nix` group. Furthermore, the nix-daemon needs to
|
|
be started and enabled using:
|
|
|
|
# rc-update add nix-daemon
|
|
# rc-service nix-daemon start
|
|
|
|
If you want to use Nix with channels, it is also necessary to
|
|
configure a channel manually and update it. To do so, run the
|
|
following commands as a user that belongs to the `nix` group:
|
|
|
|
$ nix-channel --add https://nixos.org/channels/nixpkgs-unstable
|
|
$ nix-channel --update
|
|
|
|
For more information on Nix, refer to the Nix manual, which
|
|
is available in a separate `nix-manual` package. To read the
|
|
manual, open `usr/share/doc/nix/manual/index.html`.
