A GitHub Action for pushing Nix flakes to FlakeHub. Create a YAML configuration, push it to your repo, and you're ready to go.
There are two ways to get started configuring this Action:
Although the flakehub-push
Action requires little configuration, you may benefit from assembling it with our friendly UI at flakehub.com/new.
This action sets outputs for integrating into continuous delivery pipelines:
Output | Description | Example |
---|---|---|
flake_name |
Name of the flake. | DeterminateSystems/flakehub-push |
flake_version |
Version of the published flake. | 0.1.99+rev-2075013a3f3544d45a96f4b35df4ed03cd53779c |
flakeref_exact |
A precise reference that always resolves to this to this exact release. | DeterminateSystems/flakehub-push/=0.1.99+rev-2075013a3f3544d45a96f4b35df4ed03cd53779c |
flakeref_at_least |
A loose reference to this release. Depending on this reference will require at least this version, and will also resolve to newer releases. This output is not sufficient for deployment pipelines, use flake_exact instead. |
DeterminateSystems/flakehub-push/0.1.99+rev-2075013a3f3544d45a96f4b35df4ed03cd53779c |

or v0.1.0-rc4

permissions:
id-token: write # Necessary for authenticating against FlakeHub
contents: read
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v4
with:
ref: "${{ (inputs.tag != null) && format('refs/tags/{0}', inputs.tag) || '' }}"
- name: Install Nix
uses: DeterminateSystems/nix-installer-action@main
- name: Push to flakehub
uses: determinatesystems/flakehub-push@main
