Nix
nix.conf
Nix configuration file
# Description
By default Nix reads settings from the following places:
- The system-wide configuration file `sysconfdir/nix/nix.conf` (i.e.
`/etc/nix/nix.conf` on most systems), or `$NIX_CONF_DIR/nix.conf` if
`NIX_CONF_DIR` is set. Values loaded in this file are not forwarded
to the Nix daemon. The client assumes that the daemon has already
loaded them.
- If `NIX_USER_CONF_FILES` is set, then each path separated by `:`
will be loaded in reverse order.
Otherwise it will look for `nix/nix.conf` files in `XDG_CONFIG_DIRS`
and `XDG_CONFIG_HOME`. If these are unset, it will look in
`$HOME/.config/nix.conf`.
The configuration files consist of `name =
value` pairs, one per line. Other files can be included with a line like
`include
path`, where *path* is interpreted relative to the current conf file and
a missing file is an error unless `!include` is used instead. Comments
start with a `#` character. Here is an example configuration file:
keep-outputs = true # Nice for developers
keep-derivations = true # Idem
You can override settings on the command line using the `--option` flag,
e.g. `--option keep-outputs
false`.
The following settings are currently available:
- `allowed-uris`
A list of URI prefixes to which access is allowed in restricted
evaluation mode. For example, when set to
`https://github.com/NixOS`, builtin functions such as `fetchGit` are
allowed to access `https://github.com/NixOS/patchelf.git`.
- `allow-import-from-derivation`
By default, Nix allows you to `import` from a derivation, allowing
building at evaluation time. With this option set to false, Nix will
throw an error when evaluating an expression that uses this feature,
allowing users to ensure their evaluation will not require any
builds to take place.
- `allow-new-privileges`
(Linux-specific.) By default, builders on Linux cannot acquire new
privileges by calling setuid/setgid programs or programs that have
file capabilities. For example, programs such as `sudo` or `ping`
will fail. (Note that in sandbox builds, no such programs are
available unless you bind-mount them into the sandbox via the
`sandbox-paths` option.) You can allow the use of such programs by
enabling this option. This is impure and usually undesirable, but
may be useful in certain scenarios (e.g. to spin up containers or
set up userspace network interfaces in tests).
- `allowed-users`
A list of names of users (separated by whitespace) that are allowed
to connect to the Nix daemon. As with the `trusted-users` option,
you can specify groups by prefixing them with `@`. Also, you can
allow all users by specifying `*`. The default is `*`.
Note that trusted users are always allowed to connect.
- `auto-optimise-store`
If set to `true`, Nix automatically detects files in the store that
have identical contents, and replaces them with hard links to a
single copy. This saves disk space. If set to `false` (the default),
you can still run `nix-store
--optimise` to get rid of duplicate files.
- `builders`
A list of machines on which to perform builds. See
[???](#chap-distributed-builds) for details.
- `builders-use-substitutes`
If set to `true`, Nix will instruct remote build machines to use
their own binary substitutes if available. In practical terms, this
means that remote hosts will fetch as many build dependencies as
possible from their own substitutes (e.g, from `cache.nixos.org`),
instead of waiting for this host to upload them all. This can
drastically reduce build times if the network connection between
this computer and the remote build host is slow. Defaults to
`false`.
- `build-users-group`
This options specifies the Unix group containing the Nix build user
accounts. In multi-user Nix installations, builds should not be
performed by the Nix account since that would allow users to
arbitrarily modify the Nix store and database by supplying specially
crafted builders; and they cannot be performed by the calling user
since that would allow him/her to influence the build result.
Therefore, if this option is non-empty and specifies a valid group,
builds will be performed under the user accounts that are a member
of the group specified here (as listed in `/etc/group`). Those user
accounts should not be used for any other purpose\!
Nix will never run two builds under the same user account at the
same time. This is to prevent an obvious security hole: a malicious
user writing a Nix expression that modifies the build result of a
legitimate Nix expression being built by another user. Therefore it
is good to have as many Nix build user accounts as you can spare.
(Remember: uids are cheap.)
The build users should have permission to create files in the Nix
store, but not delete them. Therefore, `/nix/store` should be owned
by the Nix account, its group should be the group specified here,
and its mode should be `1775`.
If the build users group is empty, builds will be performed under
the uid of the Nix process (that is, the uid of the caller if
`NIX_REMOTE` is empty, the uid under which the Nix daemon runs if
`NIX_REMOTE` is `daemon`). Obviously, this should not be used in
multi-user settings with untrusted users.
- `compress-build-log`
If set to `true` (the default), build logs written to
`/nix/var/log/nix/drvs` will be compressed on the fly using bzip2.
Otherwise, they will not be compressed.
- `connect-timeout`
The timeout (in seconds) for establishing connections in the binary
cache substituter. It corresponds to `curl`’s `--connect-timeout`
option.
- `cores`
Sets the value of the `NIX_BUILD_CORES` environment variable in the
invocation of builders. Builders can use this variable at their
discretion to control the maximum amount of parallelism. For
instance, in Nixpkgs, if the derivation attribute
`enableParallelBuilding` is set to `true`, the builder passes the
`-jN` flag to GNU Make. It can be overridden using the `--cores`
command line switch and defaults to `1`. The value `0` means that
the builder should use all available CPU cores in the system.
See also [???](#chap-tuning-cores-and-jobs).
- `diff-hook`
Absolute path to an executable capable of diffing build results. The
hook executes if [varlistentry\_title](#conf-run-diff-hook) is true,
and the output of a build is known to not be the same. This program
is not executed to determine if two results are the same.
The diff hook is executed by the same user and group who ran the
build. However, the diff hook does not have write access to the
store path just built.
The diff hook program receives three parameters:
1. A path to the previous build's results
2. A path to the current build's results
3. The path to the build's derivation
4. The path to the build's scratch directory. This directory will
exist only if the build was run with `--keep-failed`.
The stderr and stdout output from the diff hook will not be
displayed to the user. Instead, it will print to the nix-daemon's
log.
When using the Nix daemon, `diff-hook` must be set in the `nix.conf`
configuration file, and cannot be passed at the command line.
- `enforce-determinism`
See [varlistentry\_title](#conf-repeat).
- `extra-sandbox-paths`
A list of additional paths appended to `sandbox-paths`. Useful if
you want to extend its default value.
- `extra-platforms`
Platforms other than the native one which this machine is capable of
building for. This can be useful for supporting additional
architectures on compatible machines: i686-linux can be built on
x86\_64-linux machines (and the default for this setting reflects
this); armv7 is backwards-compatible with armv6 and armv5tel; some
aarch64 machines can also natively run 32-bit ARM code; and
qemu-user may be used to support non-native platforms (though this
may be slow and buggy). Most values for this are not enabled by
default because build systems will often misdetect the target
platform and generate incompatible code, so you may wish to
cross-check the results of using this option against proper
natively-built versions of your derivations.
- `extra-substituters`
Additional binary caches appended to those specified in
`substituters`. When used by unprivileged users, untrusted
substituters (i.e. those not listed in `trusted-substituters`) are
silently ignored.
- `fallback`
If set to `true`, Nix will fall back to building from source if a
binary substitute fails. This is equivalent to the `--fallback`
flag. The default is `false`.
- `fsync-metadata`
If set to `true`, changes to the Nix store metadata (in
`/nix/var/nix/db`) are synchronously flushed to disk. This improves
robustness in case of system crashes, but reduces performance. The
default is `true`.
- `hashed-mirrors`
A list of web servers used by `builtins.fetchurl` to obtain files by
hash. The default is `http://tarballs.nixos.org/`. Given a hash type
*ht* and a base-16 hash *h*, Nix will try to download the file from
`hashed-mirror/ht/h`. This allows files to be downloaded even if
they have disappeared from their original URI. For example, given
the default mirror `http://tarballs.nixos.org/`, when building the
derivation
builtins.fetchurl {
url = "https://example.org/foo-1.2.3.tar.xz";
sha256 = "2c26b46b68ffc68ff99b453c1d30413413422d706483bfa0f98a5e886266e7ae";
}
Nix will attempt to download this file from
`http://tarballs.nixos.org/sha256/2c26b46b68ffc68ff99b453c1d30413413422d706483bfa0f98a5e886266e7ae`
first. If it is not available there, if will try the original URI.
- `http-connections`
The maximum number of parallel TCP connections used to fetch files
from binary caches and by other downloads. It defaults to 25. 0
means no limit.
- `keep-build-log`
If set to `true` (the default), Nix will write the build log of a
derivation (i.e. the standard output and error of its builder) to
the directory `/nix/var/log/nix/drvs`. The build log can be
retrieved using the command `nix-store -l
path`.
- `keep-derivations`
If `true` (default), the garbage collector will keep the derivations
from which non-garbage store paths were built. If `false`, they will
be deleted unless explicitly registered as a root (or reachable from
other roots).
Keeping derivation around is useful for querying and traceability
(e.g., it allows you to ask with what dependencies or options a
store path was built), so by default this option is on. Turn it off
to save a bit of disk space (or a lot if `keep-outputs` is also
turned on).
- `keep-env-derivations`
If `false` (default), derivations are not stored in Nix user
environments. That is, the derivations of any build-time-only
dependencies may be garbage-collected.
If `true`, when you add a Nix derivation to a user environment, the
path of the derivation is stored in the user environment. Thus, the
derivation will not be garbage-collected until the user environment
generation is deleted (`nix-env --delete-generations`). To prevent
build-time-only dependencies from being collected, you should also
turn on `keep-outputs`.
The difference between this option and `keep-derivations` is that
this one is “sticky”: it applies to any user environment created
while this option was enabled, while `keep-derivations` only applies
at the moment the garbage collector is run.
- `keep-outputs`
If `true`, the garbage collector will keep the outputs of
non-garbage derivations. If `false` (default), outputs will be
deleted unless they are GC roots themselves (or reachable from other
roots).
In general, outputs must be registered as roots separately. However,
even if the output of a derivation is registered as a root, the
collector will still delete store paths that are used only at build
time (e.g., the C compiler, or source tarballs downloaded from the
network). To prevent it from doing so, set this option to `true`.
- `max-build-log-size`
This option defines the maximum number of bytes that a builder can
write to its stdout/stderr. If the builder exceeds this limit, it’s
killed. A value of `0` (the default) means that there is no limit.
- `max-free`
When a garbage collection is triggered by the `min-free` option, it
stops as soon as `max-free` bytes are available. The default is
infinity (i.e. delete all garbage).
- `max-jobs`
This option defines the maximum number of jobs that Nix will try to
build in parallel. The default is `1`. The special value `auto`
causes Nix to use the number of CPUs in your system. `0` is useful
when using remote builders to prevent any local builds (except for
`preferLocalBuild` derivation attribute which executes locally
regardless). It can be overridden using the `--max-jobs` (`-j`)
command line switch.
See also [???](#chap-tuning-cores-and-jobs).
- `max-silent-time`
This option defines the maximum number of seconds that a builder can
go without producing any data on standard output or standard error.
This is useful (for instance in an automated build system) to catch
builds that are stuck in an infinite loop, or to catch remote builds
that are hanging due to network problems. It can be overridden using
the `--max-silent-time` command line switch.
The value `0` means that there is no timeout. This is also the
default.
- `min-free`
When free disk space in `/nix/store` drops below `min-free` during a
build, Nix performs a garbage-collection until `max-free` bytes are
available or there is no more garbage. A value of `0` (the default)
disables this feature.
- `narinfo-cache-negative-ttl`
The TTL in seconds for negative lookups. If a store path is queried
from a substituter but was not found, there will be a negative
lookup cached in the local disk cache database for the specified
duration.
- `narinfo-cache-positive-ttl`
The TTL in seconds for positive lookups. If a store path is queried
from a substituter, the result of the query will be cached in the
local disk cache database including some of the NAR metadata. The
default TTL is a month, setting a shorter TTL for positive lookups
can be useful for binary caches that have frequent garbage
collection, in which case having a more frequent cache invalidation
would prevent trying to pull the path again and failing with a hash
mismatch if the build isn't reproducible.
- `netrc-file`
If set to an absolute path to a `netrc` file, Nix will use the HTTP
authentication credentials in this file when trying to download from
a remote host through HTTP or HTTPS. Defaults to
`$NIX_CONF_DIR/netrc`.
The `netrc` file consists of a list of accounts in the following
format:
machine my-machine
login my-username
password my-password
For the exact syntax, see [the `curl`
documentation.](https://ec.haxx.se/usingcurl-netrc.html)
> **Note**
>
> This must be an absolute path, and `~` is not resolved. For
> example, `~/.netrc` won't resolve to your home directory's
> `.netrc`.
- `plugin-files`
A list of plugin files to be loaded by Nix. Each of these files will
be dlopened by Nix, allowing them to affect execution through static
initialization. In particular, these plugins may construct static
instances of RegisterPrimOp to add new primops or constants to the
expression language, RegisterStoreImplementation to add new store
implementations, RegisterCommand to add new subcommands to the `nix`
command, and RegisterSetting to add new nix config settings. See the
constructors for those types for more details.
Since these files are loaded into the same address space as Nix
itself, they must be DSOs compatible with the instance of Nix
running at the time (i.e. compiled against the same headers, not
linked to any incompatible libraries). They should not be linked to
any Nix libs directly, as those will be available already at load
time.
If an entry in the list is a directory, all files in the directory
are loaded as plugins (non-recursively).
- `pre-build-hook`
If set, the path to a program that can set extra derivation-specific
settings for this system. This is used for settings that can't be
captured by the derivation model itself and are too variable between
different versions of the same system to be hard-coded into nix.
The hook is passed the derivation path and, if sandboxes are
enabled, the sandbox directory. It can then modify the sandbox and
send a series of commands to modify various settings to stdout. The
currently recognized commands are:
- `extra-sandbox-paths`
Pass a list of files and directories to be included in the
sandbox for this build. One entry per line, terminated by an
empty line. Entries have the same format as `sandbox-paths`.
- `post-build-hook`
Optional. The path to a program to execute after each build.
This option is only settable in the global `nix.conf`, or on the
command line by trusted users.
When using the nix-daemon, the daemon executes the hook as `root`.
If the nix-daemon is not involved, the hook runs as the user
executing the nix-build.
- The hook executes after an evaluation-time build.
- The hook does not execute on substituted paths.
- The hook's output always goes to the user's terminal.
- If the hook fails, the build succeeds but no further builds
execute.
- The hook executes synchronously, and blocks other builds from
progressing while it runs.
The program executes with no arguments. The program's environment
contains the following environment variables:
- `DRV_PATH`
The derivation for the built paths.
Example:
`/nix/store/5nihn1a7pa8b25l9zafqaqibznlvvp3f-bash-4.4-p23.drv`
- `OUT_PATHS`
Output paths of the built derivation, separated by a space
character.
Example:
`/nix/store/zf5lbh336mnzf1nlswdn11g4n2m8zh3g-bash-4.4-p23-dev
/nix/store/rjxwxwv1fpn9wa2x5ssk5phzwlcv4mna-bash-4.4-p23-doc
/nix/store/6bqvbzjkcp9695dq0dpl5y43nvy37pq1-bash-4.4-p23-info
/nix/store/r7fng3kk3vlpdlh2idnrbn37vh4imlj2-bash-4.4-p23-man
/nix/store/xfghy8ixrhz3kyy6p724iv3cxji088dx-bash-4.4-p23`.
See [???](#chap-post-build-hook) for an example implementation.
- `repeat`
How many times to repeat builds to check whether they are
deterministic. The default value is 0. If the value is non-zero,
every build is repeated the specified number of times. If the
contents of any of the runs differs from the previous ones and
[varlistentry\_title](#conf-enforce-determinism) is true, the build
is rejected and the resulting store paths are not registered as
“valid” in Nix’s database.
- `require-sigs`
If set to `true` (the default), any non-content-addressed path added
or copied to the Nix store (e.g. when substituting from a binary
cache) must have a valid signature, that is, be signed using one of
the keys listed in `trusted-public-keys` or `secret-key-files`. Set
to `false` to disable signature checking.
- `restrict-eval`
If set to `true`, the Nix evaluator will not allow access to any
files outside of the Nix search path (as set via the `NIX_PATH`
environment variable or the `-I` option), or to URIs outside of
`allowed-uri`. The default is `false`.
- `run-diff-hook`
If true, enable the execution of
[varlistentry\_title](#conf-diff-hook).
When using the Nix daemon, `run-diff-hook` must be set in the
`nix.conf` configuration file, and cannot be passed at the command
line.
- `sandbox`
If set to `true`, builds will be performed in a *sandboxed
environment*, i.e., they’re isolated from the normal file system
hierarchy and will only see their dependencies in the Nix store, the
temporary build directory, private versions of `/proc`, `/dev`,
`/dev/shm` and `/dev/pts` (on Linux), and the paths configured with
the [`sandbox-paths` option](#conf-sandbox-paths). This is useful to
prevent undeclared dependencies on files in directories such as
`/usr/bin`. In addition, on Linux, builds run in private PID, mount,
network, IPC and UTS namespaces to isolate them from other processes
in the system (except that fixed-output derivations do not run in
private network namespace to ensure they can access the network).
Currently, sandboxing only work on Linux and macOS. The use of a
sandbox requires that Nix is run as root (so you should use the
[“build users” feature](#conf-build-users-group) to perform the
actual builds under different users than root).
If this option is set to `relaxed`, then fixed-output derivations
and derivations that have the `__noChroot` attribute set to `true`
do not run in sandboxes.
The default is `true` on Linux and `false` on all other platforms.
- `sandbox-dev-shm-size`
This option determines the maximum size of the `tmpfs` filesystem
mounted on `/dev/shm` in Linux sandboxes. For the format, see the
description of the `size` option of `tmpfs` in mount8. The default
is `50%`.
- `sandbox-paths`
A list of paths bind-mounted into Nix sandbox environments. You can
use the syntax `target=source` to mount a path in a different
location in the sandbox; for instance, `/bin=/nix-bin` will mount
the path `/nix-bin` as `/bin` inside the sandbox. If *source* is
followed by `?`, then it is not an error if *source* does not exist;
for example, `/dev/nvidiactl?` specifies that `/dev/nvidiactl` will
only be mounted in the sandbox if it exists in the host filesystem.
Depending on how Nix was built, the default value for this option
may be empty or provide `/bin/sh` as a bind-mount of `bash`.
- `secret-key-files`
A whitespace-separated list of files containing secret (private)
keys. These are used to sign locally-built paths. They can be
generated using `nix-store
--generate-binary-cache-key`. The corresponding public key can be
distributed to other users, who can add it to `trusted-public-keys`
in their `nix.conf`.
- `show-trace`
Causes Nix to print out a stack trace in case of Nix expression
evaluation errors.
- `substitute`
If set to `true` (default), Nix will use binary substitutes if
available. This option can be disabled to force building from
source.
- `stalled-download-timeout`
The timeout (in seconds) for receiving data from servers during
download. Nix cancels idle downloads after this timeout's duration.
- `substituters`
A list of URLs of substituters, separated by whitespace. The default
is `https://cache.nixos.org`.
- `system`
This option specifies the canonical Nix system name of the current
installation, such as `i686-linux` or `x86_64-darwin`. Nix can only
build derivations whose `system` attribute equals the value
specified here. In general, it never makes sense to modify this
value from its default, since you can use it to ‘lie’ about the
platform you are building on (e.g., perform a Mac OS build on a
Linux machine; the result would obviously be wrong). It only makes
sense if the Nix binaries can run on multiple platforms, e.g.,
‘universal binaries’ that run on `x86_64-linux` and `i686-linux`.
It defaults to the canonical Nix system name detected by `configure`
at build time.
- `system-features`
A set of system “features” supported by this machine, e.g. `kvm`.
Derivations can express a dependency on such features through the
derivation attribute `requiredSystemFeatures`. For example, the
attribute
requiredSystemFeatures = [ "kvm" ];
ensures that the derivation can only be built on a machine with the
`kvm` feature.
This setting by default includes `kvm` if `/dev/kvm` is accessible,
and the pseudo-features `nixos-test`, `benchmark` and `big-parallel`
that are used in Nixpkgs to route builds to specific machines.
- `tarball-ttl`
Default: `3600` seconds.
The number of seconds a downloaded tarball is considered fresh. If
the cached tarball is stale, Nix will check whether it is still up
to date using the ETag header. Nix will download a new version if
the ETag header is unsupported, or the cached ETag doesn't match.
Setting the TTL to `0` forces Nix to always check if the tarball is
up to date.
Nix caches tarballs in `$XDG_CACHE_HOME/nix/tarballs`.
Files fetched via `NIX_PATH`, `fetchGit`, `fetchMercurial`,
`fetchTarball`, and `fetchurl` respect this TTL.
- `timeout`
This option defines the maximum number of seconds that a builder can
run. This is useful (for instance in an automated build system) to
catch builds that are stuck in an infinite loop but keep writing to
their standard output or standard error. It can be overridden using
the `--timeout` command line switch.
The value `0` means that there is no timeout. This is also the
default.
- `trace-function-calls`
Default: `false`.
If set to `true`, the Nix evaluator will trace every function call.
Nix will print a log message at the "vomit" level for every function
entrance and function exit.
<div class="informalexample">
function-trace entered undefined position at 1565795816999559622
function-trace exited undefined position at 1565795816999581277
function-trace entered /nix/store/.../example.nix:226:41 at 1565795253249935150
function-trace exited /nix/store/.../example.nix:226:41 at 1565795253249941684
</div>
The `undefined position` means the function call is a builtin.
Use the `contrib/stack-collapse.py` script distributed with the Nix
source code to convert the trace logs in to a format suitable for
`flamegraph.pl`.
- `trusted-public-keys`
A whitespace-separated list of public keys. When paths are copied
from another Nix store (such as a binary cache), they must be signed
with one of these keys. For example:
`cache.nixos.org-1:6NCHdD59X431o0gWypbMrAURkbJ16ZPMQFGspcDShjY=
hydra.nixos.org-1:CNHJZBh9K4tP3EKF6FkkgeVYsS3ohTl+oS0Qa8bezVs=`.
- `trusted-substituters`
A list of URLs of substituters, separated by whitespace. These are
not used by default, but can be enabled by users of the Nix daemon
by specifying `--option
substituters urls` on the command line. Unprivileged users are only
allowed to pass a subset of the URLs listed in `substituters` and
`trusted-substituters`.
- `trusted-users`
A list of names of users (separated by whitespace) that have
additional rights when connecting to the Nix daemon, such as the
ability to specify additional binary caches, or to import unsigned
NARs. You can also specify groups by prefixing them with `@`; for
instance, `@wheel` means all users in the `wheel` group. The default
is `root`.
> **Warning**

> Adding a user to `trusted-users` is essentially equivalent to
> giving that user root access to the system. For example, the user
> can set `sandbox-paths` and thereby obtain read access to
> directories that are otherwise inacessible to them.
