sbt-nix

The only requirement to compile and run this project is Nix. You can install it with the following command:

curl -L https://nixos.org/nix/install | sh

To have coursier, java and sbt available, run nix-shell. Then you can use any of these packages as usual.

Create Docker image

Note: in order to create the base-jre, you also need to have Docker installed as it needs to run as daemon so it cannot be provided in the shell.nix.

> nix-build nix/docker.nix -o result-base-jre
> docker load < result-base-jre
> sbt "docker:publishLocal"

Run the Docker image.

> docker run -it sbt-nix-scala-test-nix:0.1.0-SNAPSHOT

Build a binary

Running nix-build will pick up default.nix, which uses sbt-derivation.

> nix-build

Run the binary as follows.

> result/bin/sbt-nix-scala-test-nix
