A `repl-overlays` option has been added, which specifies files that can overlay
|
||
|
|
and modify the top-level bindings in `nix repl`. For example, with the
|
||
|
|
following contents in `~/.config/nix/repl.nix`:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```nix
|
||
|
|
info: final: prev: let
|
||
|
|
optionalAttrs = predicate: attrs:
|
||
|
|
if predicate
|
||
|
|
then attrs
|
||
|
|
else {};
|
||
|
|
in
|
||
|
|
optionalAttrs (prev ? legacyPackages && prev.legacyPackages ? ${info.currentSystem})
|
||
|
|
{
|
||
|
|
pkgs = prev.legacyPackages.${info.currentSystem};
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
We can run `nix repl` and use `pkgs` to refer to `legacyPackages.${currentSystem}`:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```ShellSession
|
||
|
|
$ nix repl --repl-overlays ~/.config/nix/repl.nix nixpkgs
|
