This copies a flake and all its inputs recursively to a store (e.g. a binary cache). This is intended to enable long-term reproducibility for flakes. However this will also require #3253. Example: $ nix flake archive --json --to file:///tmp/my-cache nixops {"path":"/nix/store/272igzkgl1gdzmabsjvb2kb2zqbphb3p-source","inputs":{"nixops-aws":{"path":"/nix/store/ybcykw13gr7iq1pzg18iyibbcv8k9q1v-source","inputs":{}},"nixops-hetzner":{"path":"/nix/store/6yn0205x3nz55w8ms3335p2841javz2d-source","inputs":{}},"nixpkgs":{"path":"/nix/store/li3lkr2ajrzphqqz3jj2avndnyd3i5lc-source","inputs":{}}}} $ ll /tmp/my-cache total 16 -rw-r--r-- 1 eelco users 403 Jan 30 01:01 272igzkgl1gdzmabsjvb2kb2zqbphb3p.narinfo -rw-r--r-- 1 eelco users 403 Jan 30 01:01 6yn0205x3nz55w8ms3335p2841javz2d.narinfo -rw-r--r-- 1 eelco users 408 Jan 30 01:01 li3lkr2ajrzphqqz3jj2avndnyd3i5lc.narinfo drwxr-xr-x 2 eelco users 6 Jan 30 01:01 nar -rw-r--r-- 1 eelco users 21 Jan 30 01:01 nix-cache-info -rw-r--r-- 1 eelco users 404 Jan 30 01:01 ybcykw13gr7iq1pzg18iyibbcv8k9q1v.narinfo Fixes #3336.
Nix, the purely functional package manager
Nix is a new take on package management that is fairly unique. Because of its purity aspects, a lot of issues found in traditional package managers don't appear with Nix.
To find out more about the tool, usage and installation instructions, please read the manual, which is available on the Nix website at http://nixos.org/nix/manual.
