nix-store-gcs-proxy - A HTTP nix store that proxies requests to Google Storage
Nix supports multiple store backends such as file, http, s3, ... but not
Google Storage.
Here we provide a http store backend for nix, that will proxy all the reads
and writes to Google Storage.
Usage
Make sure to have the google credentials installed in ~/.config/gcloud or
the GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS environment variable.
Start the server in one terminal: `./nix-store-gcs-proxy --bucket-name
`
Then in another terminal, use `nix copy --to http://localhost:3000?secret-key=path/to/secret.key `. Eg:
```sh
$ nix-store --generate-binary-cache-key cache1.example.org cache.key cache.pub
$ nix copy --to http://localhost:3000?secret-key=$PWD/cache.key nixpkgs.hello
```
