## Diagnostics
The goal of the Determinate Nix Installer is to successfully and correctly install Nix.
The `curl | sh` pipeline and the installer collects a little bit of diagnostic information to help us make that true.
Here is a table of the [diagnostic data we collect][diagnosticdata]:
| Field | Use |
| --------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `version` | The version of the Determinate Nix Installer. |
| `planner` | The method of installing Nix (`linux`, `macos`, `steam-deck`) |
| `configured_settings` | The names of planner settings which were changed from their default. Does _not_ include the values. |
| `os_name` | The running operating system. |
| `os_version` | The version of the operating system. |
| `triple` | The architecture/operating system/binary format of your system. |
| `is_ci` | Whether the installer is being used in CI (e.g. GitHub Actions). |
| `action` | Either `Install` or `Uninstall`. |
| `status` | One of `Success`, `Failure`, `Pending`, or `Cancelled`. |
| `failure_variant` | A high level description of what the failure was, if any. For example: `Command` if a command failed. |
To disable diagnostic reporting, set the diagnostics URL to an empty string by passing `--diagnostic-endpoint=""` or setting `NIX_INSTALLER_DIAGNOSTIC_ENDPOINT=""`.
