Nix flake templates for easy dev environments

built with nix

To initialize (where ${ENV} is listed in the table below):

nix flake init --template github:the-nix-way/dev-templates#${ENV}

Here's an example (for the rust template):

# Initialize in the current project
nix flake init --template github:the-nix-way/dev-templates#rust

# Create a new project
nix flake new --template github:the-nix-way/dev-templates#rust ${NEW_PROJECT_DIRECTORY}

How to use the templates

Once your preferred template has been initialized, you can use the provided shell in two ways:

  1. If you have nix-direnv installed, you can initialize the environment by running direnv allow.
  2. If you don't have nix-direnv installed, you can run nix develop to open up the Nix-defined shell.

rust

  • Rust, including cargo, Clippy, and the other standard tools. The Rust version is determined as follows, in order:

    • From the rust-toolchain.toml file if present
    • From the rust-toolchain file if present
    • Version 1.70.0 if neither is present
  • rust-analyzer 2023-07-10

  • cargo-audit 0.17.0

  • cargo-deny 0.12.1

Code organization

All of the templates have only the root flake as a flake input. That root flake provides a common revision of Nixpkgs and flake-utils to all the templates.
