Found a hacked way to use local submodule directory as nix package source, so that I might separate different configuration using different git repos.
in flake.nix add local submodule as input
# flake.nix
inputs = {
nixpkgs.url = "github:nixos/nixpkgs/nixpkgs-unstable";
darwin.url = "github:lnl7/nix-darwin";
darwin.inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs";
home-manager.url = "github:nix-community/home-manager";
home-manager.inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs";
# submodule directory
config-sketchybar-src = {
url = "git+file:./config-sketchybar";
flake = false;
};
};
config-sketchybar is a local git submodule, we can define a package using it as source.
pkg-sketchybar-config.nix
{ inputs, pkgs, ... }:
pkgs.stdenv.mkDerivation {
name = "sketchybar-config";
dontConfigure = true;
dontUnpack = true;
src = inputs.config-sketchybar-src;
installPhase = ''
mkdir -p $out
cp -r $src/config/sketchybar/* $out
# Find all .sh files and substitute 'jq' with the full path to the jq binary
find $out -type f -name "*.sh" | while read script; do
substituteInPlace "$script" \
--replace 'jq' '${pkgs.jq}/bin/jq'
done
chmod -R +x $out
'';
}
and pkg-sketchybar-config can be included in home.nix as regular package.
