An internal script for the sole purpose of building NixOS VMs with the link:../../modules/nixos/_private/workflows[given NixOS workflows].
|
||
|
|
It is mainly used to developing them workflows (READ: rices).
|
||
|
|
As a (VERY NEAT) side effect, if we exported this app, we can basically let other people test and even reproduce our workflows with this script.
|
||
|
|
It only expects the name of the workflow as the first argument with the rest to be passed as part of `nix-build` (which is the backbone of the script).

When run, it should build a VM with its script to easily initialize it.

== Extra niceties
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
There's some niceties left with this script including the ability to include your own config by overriding `extra-config` as part of the include path.
|
||
|
|
It is expected that the extra configuration folder is structured similarly to this NixOS cluster.

Once you have an folder containing those extra snippets, you can simply include them like so.
