|
- Instantiate a store derivation from a Nix file:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`nix-instantiate {{path/to/file.nix}}`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Evaluate an expression:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`nix-instantiate --eval {{[-E|--expr]}} {{expression}}`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Evaluate with machine readable output:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`nix-instantiate --eval --xml {{[-E|--expr]}} {{expression}}`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Raw output, output of the function must be a string:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`nix-instantiate --eval --raw {{[-E|--expr]}} {{expression}}`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Evaluate a Nix expression from a specified file:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`nix-instantiate --eval {{path/to/file.nix}}`
