NixOS config

Setting up a new dev environment

• Create a new *.nix file in the shells directory that describes the environment (this is the hard part).

• Execute lorri init in the base directory of your project. This will create a .envrc file and shell.nix file.

• Edit the shell.nix file so that it contains import /path/to/this/repo/shells/your-new-file.nix.

• For shells that have a shellHook that exports environment containing computed directories (e.g. the git root or the current working directory), add eval "$shellHook" to your .envrc.

• Execute direnv allow to load the .envrc file which in turn uses lorri to load your shell.nix file.
