Hi, I just discovered NixOS and I'm stoked!
Here's a question I couldn't find an answer to easily: Suppose you're running nginx as a proxy for a bunch of services. How would you configure that? Normally, I'd install the latest nginx and then change its configuration by adding files to /etc/nginx/conf.d etc. Since Nix packages need to be pure, the configuration needs to be part of the package, right? So as a sysadmin I would then need to derive the package, making a new package for every config change? Or is there a way to make configuration items into separate packages, all requiring the nginx master package and resulting in a single service? Just trying to understand it all. Wout. PS: Incidentally, having a Google+ community for NixOS would be very nice, lowering the barriers to discovery and communication.
