# Description
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This command shows information about the flake specified by the flake
|
||
|
|
reference *flake-url*. It resolves the flake reference using the
|
||
|
|
[flake registry](./nix3-registry.md), fetches it, and prints some meta
|
||
|
|
data. This includes:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* `Resolved URL`: If *flake-url* is a flake identifier, then this is
|
||
|
|
the flake reference that specifies its actual location, looked up in
|
||
|
|
the flake registry.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* `Locked URL`: A flake reference that contains a commit or content
|
||
|
|
hash and thus uniquely identifies a specific flake version.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* `Description`: A one-line description of the flake, taken from the
|
||
|
|
`description` field in `flake.nix`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* `Path`: The store path containing the source code of the flake.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* `Revision`: The Git or Mercurial commit hash of the locked flake.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* `Revisions`: The number of ancestors of the Git or Mercurial commit
|
||
|
|
of the locked flake. Note that this is not available for `github`
|
||
|
|
flakes.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* `Last modified`: For Git or Mercurial flakes, this is the commit
|
||
|
|
time of the commit of the locked flake; for tarball flakes, it's the
|
||
|
|
most recent timestamp of any file inside the tarball.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
With `--json`, the output is a JSON object with the following fields:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* `original` and `originalUrl`: The flake reference specified by the
|
||
|
|
user (*flake-url*) in attribute set and URL representation.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* `resolved` and `resolvedUrl`: The resolved flake reference (see
|
||
|
|
above) in attribute set and URL representation.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* `locked` and `lockedUrl`: The locked flake reference (see above) in
|
||
|
|
attribute set and URL representation.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* `description`: See `Description` above.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* `path`: See `Path` above.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* `revision`: See `Revision` above.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* `revCount`: See `Revisions` above.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* `lastModified`: See `Last modified` above.
