feat: add a Nix flake file #141

Closed fusion44 closed 6 months ago

fusion44 commented 9 months ago

This PR adds a Nix Flake file. This enables users of NixOS or the Nix package manager to quickly setup a development environment without having to install the Flutter / Dart on the base system installation.

Type of Change

I would rather keep it independent of specific tooling. I'm also not familiar with what this is, couldn't this be done in a bash file?

Adding the file doesn't tie Jaspr to Nix in any way. This just a simple (optinal) way to create a shell environment without having to install Flutter or Node permanently on the base system when using Nix. Thats not easy to replicate with a shell script. You can also think of it like a Python environment but for system packages instead of Python packages. Here's some additional info.

This would save me (and other potential Nix users) some hassle when developing Jaspr itself since the file makes most sense in a projects root directory.

Anyway, I found a few problems I have to solve. Please don't mege yet.

Hi, closing this as my original opinion still stands. If this would be part of the repo I would need to maintain it, which I don't want since I'm not using nix (which is funny because I'm german and in german 'nix' means 'nothing' ;D).

There are other ways to add this to the project though to help contributors to get started. My proposal would be this:

  1. You put the config files in a public gist.
  2. You open a discussion here that links the files explains how to use them.
  3. After that I'm happy to refer to that discussion in the contributors guide.
