Yes it's possible. If it for some reason doesn't work, please provide a http://sscce.org and open an issue :) On Tue, Jun 7, 2016 at 4:19 PM, Graham Christensen wrote: > Is it actually possible to run Nixops on OSX? A client of mine wasn't able > to build EC2 machines on his

Is it actually possible to run Nixops on OSX? A client of mine wasn't able to build EC2 machines on his OS X laptop today during a demo. Best, Graham > On Jun 7, 2016, at 7:59 AM, Freddy Rietdijk wrote: > > The nixpkgs-unstable channel, which includes OSX packages,

The nixpkgs-unstable channel, which includes OSX packages, hasn't updated in 25 days whereas the nixos-unstable channel was updated 4 days ago. http://howoldis.herokuapp.com/ On Tue, Jun 7, 2016 at 2:54 PM, Maarten Hoogendoorn wrote: > Ah, I see ;) Now it makes sense. > >

It's possible, the nixpkgs-unstable and nixos-unstable both evolve independently as they have different "success" conditions. On Tue, 7 Jun 2016, 13:38 Maarten Hoogendoorn, wrote: > Ah, that could be very well the cause of this. Is the OS X build lagging > behind the NixOS

Ah, that could be very well the cause of this. Is the OS X build lagging behind the NixOS one? I thought if some package was present in the unstable channel, that hydra would have build it and uploaded it to the binary cache? 2016-06-07 14:30 GMT+02:00 zimbatm : > In general

After I encountered this problem, I checked the channel (it was "unstable") and ran nix-channel --update. It did not make any difference w.r.t. running these tests. I expected this, since I saw that the installation script pulled an up to date channel definition during installation. Just to make

Hi, I suspect you saw nixops dependencies being built because for some reason it wasn't built by hydra: http://hydra.nixos.org/job/nixpkgs/trunk/nixops.x86_64-darwin If you update to latest channel this shouldn't happen anymore. On Tue, Jun 7, 2016 at 1:18 PM, Maarten Hoogendoorn

Hi there, I have been a really happy Nix{,pkgs,os,ops} for some time. In fact, I'm writing two intro blog posts about nix during working hours for Container Solutions. Since most of the developers that will read the blogpost will be running OS X, I've borrowed a spare macbook, and installed nix
