Nix flake templates for easy dev environments

built with nix

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

nix flake init --template "https://flakehub.com/f/the-nix-way/dev-templates/*#${ENV}"

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

# Initialize in the current project
nix flake init --template "https://flakehub.com/f/the-nix-way/dev-templates/*#rust"

# Create a new project
nix flake new --template "https://flakehub.com/f/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.

Template contents

The sections below list what each template includes. In all cases, you're free to add and remove packages as you see fit; the templates are just boilerplate.

A dev template that's fully customizable.

  • Ruby 3.2.2, plus the standard Ruby tools (bundle, gem, etc.)
  • 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 1.78.0 if neither is present
  • rust-analyzer 2024-04-29

  • cargo-edit 0.12.2

  • cargo-deny 0.14.23

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.
