Nixos-Webtainers

About

This is an extension for NixOs containers. The tool offers an easy (nix declarative) way to setup NixOs containers with a presetup webserver mostly meant for web development purposes. Creates also an additional /etc/hosts entry with the selected hostName or name with a .local suffix.

Features:

• nginx
• php-fpm
• mysql + mariadb
• ssh server
• ...

Instructions

Include the default.nix in your NixOs configuration within imports usually. Check additional possible options in options.nix.

Example:

{ config, pkgs, ... }:

{
  imports = [
    ./nixos-webtainers/default.nix
  ];

  tools.webtainers = {
    "tests" = {
      net = "192.168.11"; # optional
      lastOctave = "12";
      bindMounts = {
        "/var/www/tests.local" = {
          hostPath = "/home/alice/projects/tests";
          isReadOnly = false;
        };
      };
      hostName = "tests.local"; # optional
    };
  };
}
