Not putting time tables on these…
On-going
-
More fetcher support — specifically prefetchers with structured data output (such as JSON); others could be supported but much lower priority so if you would like to see a specific fetcher, please write or fix the
nix-prefetch-$FOOwith structured data output for upstream Nixpkgs, & then let us know
In progress
Nearer Future
-
nixtamal gc+ per-project links to help mitigate garbage collection of fetches (especially in rebase workflows which need to travel back to old commits that might be on a different version)
Farther Future
-
nixtamal importwhich can pull in flakes, npins, or niv lock files -
nixtamal runwhich would wrapnix run --fileso you can run a Nix application with a manifest file or perhaps a simpler API but similar in order to be able to run Nix applications beyond the scope of what is supported by the flake input URI +packagesschema to cover missing VCSs (ornix-runneeds extension)
