# Examples
* Create the lock file for the flake in the current directory:
```console
# nix flake lock
warning: creating lock file '/home/myself/repos/testflake/flake.lock':
• Added input 'nix':
'github:NixOS/nix/9fab14adbc3810d5cc1f88672fde1eee4358405c' (2023-06-28)
• Added input 'nixpkgs':
'github:NixOS/nixpkgs/3d2d8f281a27d466fa54b469b5993f7dde198375' (2023-06-30)
```
* Add missing inputs to the lock file for a flake in a different directory:
```console
# nix flake lock ~/repos/another
warning: updating lock file '/home/myself/repos/another/flake.lock':
• Added input 'nixpkgs':
'github:NixOS/nixpkgs/3d2d8f281a27d466fa54b469b5993f7dde198375' (2023-06-30)
```
> **Note**
>
> When trying to refer to a flake in a subdirectory, write `./another`
> instead of `another`.
> Otherwise Nix will try to look up the flake in the registry.
# Description
This command adds inputs to the lock file of a flake (`flake.lock`)
so that it contains a lock for every flake input specified in
`flake.nix`. Existing lock file entries are not updated.
If you want to update existing lock entries, use
[`nix flake update`](@docroot@/command-ref/new-cli/nix3-flake-update.md)
