# A shell to get tooling for Nixpkgs development # # Note: We intentionally don't use Flakes here, # because every time you change any file and do another `nix develop`, # it would create another copy of the entire ~500MB tree in the store. # See https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/6530 for the future # # Note: We use a pinned Nixpkgs so that the tools are readily available even # when making changes that would otherwise require a new build of those tools. # If you'd like to test out changes to the tools themselves, you can pass # # nix-shell --arg nixpkgs ./. # { system ? builtins.currentSystem, nixpkgs ? null, }: let inherit (import ./ci { inherit nixpkgs system; }) pkgs; in pkgs.mkShellNoCC { packages = [ # The default formatter for Nix code # https://github.com/NixOS/nixfmt pkgs.nixfmt-rfc-style ]; }
