nixpkgs-ruby

A Nix repository with all Ruby versions being kept up-to-date automatically.

Consider this an experiment to make all versions of a tool available in a seperate Nixpkgs repo.

Quick-start

When you are in a Ruby project that uses .ruby-version and Bundle, you can use the following:

nix flake init github:bobvanderlinden/templates#ruby
nix develop

Usage

Create a file flake.nix.

You can use nixpkgs-ruby as follows:

{
  inputs.nixpkgs.url = "github:NixOS/nixpkgs/nixos-20.09";
  inputs.nixpkgs-ruby.url = "github:bobvanderlinden/nixpkgs-ruby";
  inputs.nixpkgs-ruby.inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs";
  outputs = { self, nixpkgs-ruby }: let
    pkgs = nixpkgs.legacyPackages.x86_64;
    ruby-2-7 = nixpkgs-ruby.lib.mkRuby { inherit pkgs; rubyVersion = "2.7.1"; };
    ruby-2-6 = nixpkgs-ruby.lib.mkRuby { inherit pkgs; rubyVersion = "2.6.0"; };
  in {
    ...
  };
}
