Autopilot

Built with Nix

Automatically loads and extends your configurations, libraries, packages, and more with flake-parts.

Library Auto-loading

Autopilot evaluates user defined library before letting flake-parts takeover. User defined library (including extensions) will be passed as specialArgs to flake-parts, i.e. lib will be made available to flake-parts modules and perSystem configurations.

Options

autopilot.lib.path

The directory Autopilot will load .nix files from. File names will be used to generate function names. All files in this directory should be in kebab-case. Function names will be in camelCase. For instance, add-one.nix will be transformed to addOne.

Type: Path

Example: autopilot.lib.path = ./lib;

autopilot.lib.excludes

Files in autopilot.lib.path that should be ignored.

Type: [String]

Example: autopilot.lib.excludes = [ "do-not-use-me-or-you-will-be-fired.nix" ];

autopilot.lib.extender

An attrset contains the function extend. Usually nixpkgs.lib, or any function set called with nixpkgs.lib.makeExtensible.

Type: AttrSet

Example: autopilot.lib.extender = inputs.nixpkgs.lib;

autopilot.lib.extensions

Any library(ies) that you want to use in your flake-parts config. They will be made available in your flake-parts modules but will not be exported to flake.lib.

Type: [AttrSet]

Example: autopilot.lib.extensions = with inputs; [ autopilot.lib flake-parts.lib flake-utils.lib ];

Setting Multiple nixpkgs Instances

This option enables users to set one or more nixpkgs instances with config and overlays. Instances provided in autopilot.nixpkgs.instances will inherit config and overlays.

Options

autopilot.nixpkgs.config

Must be a valid nixpkgs config.

Type: AttrSet

Example: autopilot.nixpkgs.config = { allowUnfree = true; };

autopilot.nixpkgs.overlays

Must be a list of valid nixpkgs overlays.

Type: [(AttrSet -> AttrSet -> AttrSet)]

Example: autopilot.nixpkgs.overlays = [ (final: prev: { hi = prev.hello; }) ];

autopilot.nixpkgs.instances

Instances of nixpkgs that will be made available to perSystem configurations.

Type: [AttrSet]

Example:autopilot.nixpkgs.instances = [ { name = "pkgs"; value = inputs.nixpkgs; } ];

Module Auto-loading

Automatically import all files (flake-part) modules in a directory.

Options

autopilot.parts.path

The directory Autopilot will load .nix files from.

Type: Path

Example: autopilot.lib.parts = ./parts;

autopilot.parts.excludes

Files in autopilot.parts.path that should be ignored.

Type: [String]

Example: autopilot.parts.excludes = [ "do-not-use-me-or-you-will-be-fired.nix" ];

Example

Multi-directory flake:

# ./flake.nix

{
    inputs = {
        nixpkgs.url = "github:nixos/nixpkgs/release-24.05";
        unstable.url = "github:nixos/nixpkgs/nixos-unstable";

        parts.url = "github:hercules-ci/flake-parts";
        parts.inputs.nixpkgs-lib.follows = "nixpkgs";

        systems.url = "github:nix-systems/default";

        autopilot.url = "github:stepbrobd/autopilot";
        autopilot.inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs";
        autopilot.inputs.parts.follows = "parts";
        autopilot.inputs.systems.follows = "systems";
    };

    outputs = inputs: inputs.autopilot.lib.mkFlake
    {
        inherit inputs;

        autopilot = {
            lib = {
                path = ./lib;
                excludes = [ ];
                extender = inputs.nixpkgs.lib;
                extensions = with inputs; [ autopilot.lib parts.lib ];
            };

            nixpkgs = {
                config = { allowUnfree = true; };
                overlays = [ ];
                instances = [
                    { name = "pkgs"; value = inputs.nixpkgs; }
                    { name = "unstable"; value = inputs.unstable; }
                ];
            };

            parts = { path = ./parts; excludes = [ ]; };
        };
    }
    { systems = import inputs.systems; };
}
# ./lib/add-one.nix # will be made available as `lib.addOne`

{ lib }:

x: x + 1
# ./parts/formatter.nix

{
    perSystem = { unstable, ... }: {
        formatter = unstable.nixpkgs-fmt;
    };
}
