Install

From source

If you don’t have Darcs installed, you can use from Nixpkgs such as

$ nix-shell -p darcs

After/else clone from one of the mirrors

$ darcs clone https://darcs.toastal.in.th/nixtamal/stable/ nixtamal

Then change directory to the project & set up

$ cd nixtamal
$ darcs setpref boringfile .boring

Now build!

$ nix-build
$ result/bin/nixtamal --help

You can optionally install as Nix profile

$ nix profile add $(nix-build)

Add overlay

With access to nixtamal (even if from nixtamal/result/bin), you can now bootstrap yourself to add the overlay to a system

$ nixtamal set-up
…
$ nixtamal tweak

With the manifest.kdl open, add (mirrors coming soon!)

inputs {
    nixtamal {
        darcs {
            repository "https://darcs.toastal.in.th/nixtamal/stable"
        }
        fresh-cmd {
            $ curl -sL "https://darcs.toastal.in.th/nixtamal/stable/_darcs/weak_hash"
        }
    }
}

Which can can now be used for adding the overlay

let
   # imports the lockfile thru default.nix shim
   inputs = import .nix/tamal { };

   pkgs = import inputs.nixpkgs {
      overlays = [
         # apply our overlay Nixpkgs
         (import "${inputs.nixtamal}/nix/overlay")
      ];
   };
in
pkgs.nixtamal
