    I'd recommend running ShellCheck over the file. For shell scripting, ShellCheck is a must have.

    shellcheck is a static analysis tool for debugging shell scripts. OP is asking if there is a way to have shellcheck analyse your shell script against a specific version of a shell.

    www.shellcheck.net is an online lint checker for bash, ksh, dash and POSIX sh.

    standardization - To write 100% portable scripts, I'd have to stick to basic POSIX sh features (no arrays etc.) which is limiting. I have encountered problems in the past with using my Linux scripts on BSD because of this. I can use https://www.shellcheck.net/ but using a well standardized language which has all the features I need would have solved this.

  • The Determinate Nix Installer

    This looks good. I know I'm about to speak towards the OS version and not the Nix that can run atop other distros, but I definitely had some hiccups on the way to my NixOS-on-ZFS-root install (1), such as the configuration of the root user, whether to declaratively or dynamically configure non-root users and wifi networks (and having a working wifi driver that worked with my onboard chip to begin with... I truly believe that linux installs should not be expected to have to bootstrap via Ethernet at this point). Admittedly, a few of these things were due to not using the official GUI installer, but IMHO the commandline non-GUI install of NixOS should be as painless as possible as well.

    Regarding your argument against Bash, isn't it true that this is just a different version of the same bootstrapping problem, and that downloading a temporary but specific Bash version would get around that? (I agree that working with Bash leaves a lot to be desired. But it's also more accessible to end-users to hack on, observe, and learn from, than a compiled Rust binary is. And tools like Copilot and ChatGPT and https://www.shellcheck.net/ make working in Bash MUCH more painless, I've found.)

    Couple more questions: 1) Is your installer idempotent? (I think it is, since you track what's been done in a JSON structure; just confirming! If the JSON file is lost, are you still idempotent though? lol) 2) Are you a profitable company or just a group of Nix believers?

    also, write a lot of bash scripts. the Google Style Guide and shellcheck should help you learn good practice and why things are done in a certain way.

    Do a shellcheck, having those "rm -rf" isn't safe, at all.
