I've tried to install nix-linter with 3 way. None works
nix package manager
nix-env -iA nixpkgs.nix-linter
Package is marked as broken, refusing to evaluate.
It propose me several option to add broken package ( export NIXPKGS_ALLOW_BROKEN=1 ). But I don't understand exactly what will be the repercutions. I prefer not to follow this option
with cachix
I follow this tutorial
and add this line
echo "trusted-users = root myusername" | sudo tee -a /etc/nix/nix.conf && sudo pkill nix-daemon
normally after cachix use nix-linter there is a cache that nix-build use
But it doesn't work. I get an error saying that there is no default.nix in my repository
https://github.com/Synthetica9/nix-linter
cachix use nix-linter git clone https://github.com/Synthetica9/nix-linter cd nix-linter $(nix-build -A nix-linter)/bin/nix-linter --help
error: attribute 'nix-linter' in selection path 'nix-linter' not found -bash: /bin/nix-linter: No such file or directory
somebody from cacheix said that this package is no longer maintain and I should try statix.
statix works
