# Description
|
|
|
|
`nix bundle`, by default, packs the closure of the *installable* into a single
|
|
self-extracting executable. See the [`bundlers`
|
|
homepage](https://github.com/NixOS/bundlers) for more details.

# Flake output attributes
|
|
|
|
If no flake output attribute is given, `nix bundle` tries the following
|
|
flake output attributes:
|
|
|
|
* `bundlers.<system>.default`
|
|
|
|
If an attribute *name* is given, `nix run` tries the following flake
|
|
output attributes:
|
|
|
|
* `bundlers.<system>.<name>`
|
|
|
|
# Bundlers
|
|
|
|
A bundler is specified by a flake output attribute named
|
|
`bundlers.<system>.<name>`. It looks like this:
|
|
|
|
```nix
|
|
bundlers.x86_64-linux = rec {
|
|
identity = drv: drv;
|
|
|
|
blender_2_79 = drv: self.packages.x86_64-linux.blender_2_79;
|
|
|
|
default = identity;
|
|
};
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
A bundler must be a function that accepts an arbitrary value (typically a
|
|
derivation or app definition) and returns a derivation.
