is it possible to use a different flake for comma (instead of nixpkgs)?

implemented in 17a4f33

from comma.

I wonder if the .contains("nixpkgs") should be .contains("nixpkgs=") in order to differentiate when nixpkgs is explicitly specified, or just happens to be in the path of a different entry?

fixed e27a636 thanks for the report

from comma.

Currently we're checking if NIX_PATH contains nixpkgs(users usually remove it if using flakes) and determining if we should use flakes or channels

comma/src/main.rs

Line 106 in c83ff38

.contains("nixpkgs");

what is the output of echo $NIX_PATH

from comma.

❯ echo $NIX_PATH
/home/quantmint/.nix-defexpr/channels:nixpkgs=/nix/var/nix/profiles/per-user/root/channels/nixos:nixos-config=/etc/nixos/configuration.nix:/nix/var/nix/profiles/per-user/root/channels

Isn't there a better way to find out if a user is using flakes? I use flakes, but NIX_PATH is set by default.
Also, is it possible to use a different flake for comma (instead of nixpkgs)?

comma/src/main.rs

Line 50 in c83ff38

run_cmd.args([format!("nixpkgs#{}", choice)]);

from comma.

I ran into this same issue. I use flakes, and my NIX_PATH is

/Users/fmoda3/.nix-defexpr/channels:darwin-config=/Users/fmoda3/.nixpkgs/darwin-configuration.nix:/nix/var/nix/profiles/per-user/root/channels

which happens to contain "nixpkgs" in one of the entries, making comma think I am using channels.

To fix it, i had to add nix.nixPath = [ "nixpkgs=${nixpkgs}" ]; to my flake, to force a nixpkgs entry that points to my flake.

After this addition, NIX_PATH becomes

/Users/fmoda3/.nix-defexpr/channels:darwin-config=/Users/fmoda3/.nixpkgs/darwin-configuration.nix:nixpkgs=/nix/store/v0vq1p4c17x97w2py57xanh4nlh4v4cn-source:/nix/var/nix/profiles/per-user/root/channels

I wonder if the .contains("nixpkgs") should be .contains("nixpkgs=") in order to differentiate when nixpkgs is explicitly specified, or just happens to be in the path of a different entry?

from comma.
