    Not all containers are Docker. Docker containers are so-called application containers with no init daemon. NixOS modules rely on an init daemon (systemd) to start services, so if you're looking at NixOS, trying to contort it into an application container might not be the easiest way to go about this. There's also no official NixOS docker template. (There's a Nix package manager one but I don't think that's what you want, I don't think it has systemd) What I'm suggesting is more of a LXC-style operating system container that starts NixOS at stage 2. As for how to go about it, This article presents a straight-forward looking solution. Alternatively, you could have the guest share the host's nix-store with miniguest (shameless self-promotion)
