Template-Flake

This flake provides custom flake templates, while still letting you access the official flake templates. It was inspired by this blogpost.

Installation

Run

nix registry add templates ~/path/to/this/repository

This will override the default template-entry in the nix-registry. You will still be able to access the official templates through this template.

Usage

$ mkdir <projectName>
$ cd <projectName>
$ nix flake init -t templates#<nameOfTheTemplate>
$ git init
$ git add .

You will have to replace all occurances of TEMPLATE_NAME with your <project_name>.
