Nix-ifying a Rust project

• himalaya

  43 2,842 9.3 Rust

  CLI to manage emails

• rust-overlay

  11 745 9.5 Nix

  Pure and reproducible nix overlay of binary distributed rust toolchains

It uses the oxalica overlay instead of the nixpkgs, mainly because I couldn't get rust-analyzer (required by the VSCode extension; see .vscode/ folder) working with the nixpkgs version.

• WorkOS

  workos.com sponsored

  The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  

• naersk

  6 635 5.6 Nix

  Build Rust projects in Nix - no configuration, no code generation, no IFD, sandbox friendly.

  

sounds exactly like what naersk does. naersk doesn't need a cargSha256 argument since it downloads dependencies from Cargo.lock. it can also grab the version number from Cargo.toml

• Home Manager using Nix

  182 5,863 9.8 Nix

  Manage a user environment using Nix [maintainer=@rycee]

  

You can also use https://github.com/nix-community/home-manager to manage your dotfiles the Nix way.

• xplr

  104 3,928 8.0 Rust

  A hackable, minimal, fast TUI file explorer

Thanks for the post. I'm having trouble nixifying https://github.com/sayanarijit/xplr. Hopefully this post will help. Btw, does anyone know any github actions alternative?

• crate2nix

  10 317 9.4 Nix

  rebuild only changed crates in CI with crate2nix and nix

  

I like the way crate2nix works. I have made a flake template for it here. Sometimes it requires a couple of overrides to fix some misbehaving crates (see https://github.com/balsoft/simple-osd-daemons/blob/master/flake.nix#L29 for an example of such overrides), but otherwise it's fantastic. It doesn't require any hash nonsense, it downloads and builds all the crates separately (unlike naersk or other solutions) so you get all the benefits of Nix (reproducibility and proper caching).

• nix-templates

  8 42 4.0 Nix

  Nix Flake templates for various languages
