# Examples
|
|
|
|
* Apply the build environment of GNU hello to the current shell:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
# . <(nix print-dev-env nixpkgs#hello)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
* Get the build environment in JSON format:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
# nix print-dev-env nixpkgs#hello --json
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The output will look like this:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"bashFunctions": {
|
|
"buildPhase": " \n runHook preBuild;\n...",
|
|
...
|
|
},
|
|
"variables": {
|
|
"src": {
|
|
"type": "exported",
|
|
"value": "/nix/store/3x7dwzq014bblazs7kq20p9hyzz0qh8g-hello-2.10.tar.gz"
|
|
},
|
|
"postUnpackHooks": {
|
|
"type": "array",
|
|
"value": ["_updateSourceDateEpochFromSourceRoot"]

# Description
|
|
|
|
This command prints a shell script that can be sourced by `bash` and
|
|
that sets the variables and shell functions defined by the build
|
|
process of *installable*. This allows you to get a similar build
|
|
environment in your current shell rather than in a subshell (as with
|
|
`nix develop`).
|
|
|
|
With `--json`, the output is a JSON serialisation of the variables and
|
|
functions defined by the build process.
