# Nix package repository

This repository contains various package derivations for the Nix ecosystem.
It is a staging area for packages which should ultimately be in [NixOS/nixpkgs](https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs).

Some of them are already in PR form, some are still being worked on.

## Usage

### As a Nix channel
Add this repository to your Nix channels:

```
$ nix-channel --add https://git.sixfoisneuf.fr/nixpkgs/snapshot/nixpkgs-master.tar.gz sixfoisneuf
$ nix-channel --update
```

### As a nixpkgs overlay

Add this to your `configuration.nix`:

```nix
{
  nixpkgs.overlays = [
    (import "${fetchTarball "https://git.sixfoisneuf.fr/nixpkgs/snapshot/nixpkgs-master.tar.gz"}/overlay.nix")
  ];

  environment.systemPackages = with pkgs; [
    passwdqc
  ]
}
```
