Install and Use Nix Package Manager on non-Nix OS like Ubuntu
|
||||
======
|
||||
|
||||
One of the reasons [why people like using the immutable NixOS][1] is its Nix package manager.
|
||||
|
||||
It has over 80,000 packages, which might not be close to the number of Debian packages but pretty impressive nonetheless.
|
||||
|
||||
The good thing is that you don't have to [install NixOS][2] just for the package manager. Like [Homebrew][3] and Rust's [Cargo package manager][4], you can use Nix package manager in your present distribution.
|
||||
|
||||
Why would you do that? Because sometimes, you may find a new application that is only available in Nix packaging format. It's rare but possible.
|
||||
|
||||
In this tutorial, I will walk you through the following:
|
||||
|
||||
* Installing Nix package manager
|
||||
* Searching and installing packages
|
||||
* Try/test packages without installing them
|
||||
* Update packages
|
||||
* Removing packages
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### Install Nix package manager on other Linux distros
|
||||
|
||||
There are two ways to install the Nix package manager: global install and local install.
|
||||
|
||||
📋
|
||||
|
||||
The global install means the nix package manager will be accessible by every user available on the system, whereas the local installation is only for the current user. The [official Nix documentation][5] recommends you use the global install.
|
||||
|
||||
##### For global installation:
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to install the Nix package manager globally, then, you need to execute the following command:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
sh <(curl -L https://nixos.org/nix/install) --daemon
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Once you execute the above command, you need to enter the `y` key and press the `Enter` key:
|
||||
|
||||
![][6]
|
||||
|
||||
Once done, close the current terminal as it won't work on the current terminal session.
|
||||
|
||||
##### For local installation:
|
||||
|
||||
If you prefer the local installation and don't want to use sudo every time, then execute the following command:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
sh <(curl -L https://nixos.org/nix/install) --no-daemon
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Enter `y` and press the `Enter` key when asked for the confirmation.
|
||||
|
||||
Once done, close the current terminal session and start a new one to use the Nix package manager.
|
||||
|
||||
### Search and install packages
|
||||
|
||||
Once you have installed the Nix package manager, the next step is to search for packages.
|
||||
|
||||
First, [visit the official page of Nix search][7] and type the name of the package that you want to install.
|
||||
|
||||
From the given description, you can find the package which you were looking for and then, choose the `nix-env` to go with the permanent installation.
|
||||
|
||||
Here, you can add some extra keywords to have better search results. For example, here, I searched for "Firefox browser":
|
||||
|
||||
![][8]
|
||||
|
||||
The last step that I mentioned above (copy command) does nothing but gives you a command that you execute for the installation.
|
||||
|
||||
Now, all you have to do is execute that command in your terminal.
|
||||
|
||||
In my case, it gave me the following command to install Firefox:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
nix-env -iA nixpkgs.firefox
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Once done, you can list the installed packages using the following command:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
nix-env -q
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
![][9]
|
||||
|
||||
### Use packages without installing them
|
||||
|
||||
By far this is the best feature of the Nix package manager as you get to use/test packages that are not even installed!
|
||||
|
||||
For this, you can use the nix shell which lets you use an interactive shell with the specified package, and once closed, you can no longer access that package.
|
||||
|
||||
Cool, right?
|
||||
|
||||
To use the nix-shell to access your favorite package, use the following command syntax:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
nix-shell -p <package_name>
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
For example, I wanted to use neofetch once, so I used the following:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
nix-shell -p neofetch
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
![][10]
|
||||
|
||||
To exit from the shell, all you have to do is execute the `exit` command:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
exit
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Update packages using the Nix package manager
|
||||
|
||||
Updating packages using the Nix package manager is pretty easy.
|
||||
|
||||
To update packages, first, you need to update channels using the following command:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
nix-channel --update
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Next, you can list the outdated packages by dry-running the update command:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
nix-env --upgrade --dry-run
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
![][11]
|
||||
|
||||
In my case, the Firefox browser was outdated and needs to be updated!
|
||||
|
||||
To update a single package, use the following command:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
nix-env -u <Package_name>
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
And if you want to update all the packages at once, then use the following:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
nix-env -u
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Remove packages using the Nix package manager
|
||||
|
||||
To remove packages, all you have to do is execute the `nix-env` command in the following manner:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
nix-env --uninstall [package_name]
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
For example, if I want to remove the Firefox browser, then, I will use the following command:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
nix-env --uninstall firefox
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
![][12]
|
||||
|
||||
### Unlock its full potential with NixOS
|
||||
|
||||
If you liked the idea behind the Nix package manager, trust me, you're going to love the [NixOS][13].
|
||||
|
||||
Reproducing the entire system just by using one config file was enough to convince me to make a switch to NixOS but there are more reasons:
|
||||
|
||||
![][14]
|
||||
|
||||
I love NixOS. So much so that I wrote a whole series so you don't have to go through documentation (for basics):
|
||||
|
||||
![][14]
|
||||
|
||||
I hope you will enjoy using it as much as I do.

在 Ubuntu 等非 Nix 操作系统上安装和使用 Nix 包管理器
|
||||
======
|
||||
|
||||
[人们喜欢使用不可变的 NixOS][1] 的原因之一是它的 Nix 包管理器。
|
||||
|
||||
它有超过 80,000 个软件包,这可能与 Debian 软件包的数量不太接近,但仍然令人印象深刻。
|
||||
|
||||
好处是你不必仅仅为了包管理器而[安装 NixOS][2]。与 [Homebrew][3] 和 Rust 的 [Cargo 包管理器][4] 一样,你可以在当前发行版中使用 Nix 包管理器。
|
||||
|
||||
为什么要这么做? 因为有时,你可能会发现仅以 Nix 打包格式提供的新应用。这种情况很少见,但有可能。
|
||||
|
||||
在本教程中,我将引导你完成以下内容:
|
||||
|
||||
* 安装 Nix 包管理器
|
||||
* 搜索并安装包
|
||||
* 尝试/测试软件包而不安装它们
|
||||
* 更新包
|
||||
* 删除包
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### 在其他 Linux 发行版上安装 Nix 包管理器
|
||||
|
||||
Nix 包管理器有两种安装方式:全局安装和本地安装。
|
||||
|
||||
📋
|
||||
|
||||
全局安装意味着系统上的每个可用用户都可以访问 nix 包管理器,而本地安装仅适用于当前用户。[Nix 官方文档][5] 建议你使用全局安装。
|
||||
|
||||
##### 对于全局安装:
|
||||
|
||||
如果你想全局安装Nix包管理器,那么,你需要执行以下命令:
|
||||
|
||||
````
|
||||
|
||||
sh <(curl -L https://nixos.org/nix/install) --daemon
|
||||
|
||||
````
|
||||
|
||||
执行上述命令后,需要输入 `y` 键并按`回车`键:
|
||||
|
||||
![][6]
|
||||
|
||||
完成后,关闭当前终端,因为它不会在当前终端会话上运行。
|
||||
|
||||
##### 对于本地安装:
|
||||
|
||||
如果你更喜欢本地安装并且不想每次都使用 sudo,则执行以下命令:
|
||||
|
||||
````
|
||||
|
||||
sh <(curl -L https://nixos.org/nix/install) --no-daemon
|
||||
|
||||
````
|
||||
|
||||
输入 `y` 并在要求确认时按`回车`键。
|
||||
|
||||
完成后,关闭当前终端会话并启动一个新终端会话以使用 Nix 包管理器。
|
||||
|
||||
### 搜索并安装包
|
||||
|
||||
安装 Nix 包管理器后,下一步是搜索包。
|
||||
|
||||
首先,[访问 Nix 搜索的官方页面][7]并输入你要安装的软件包的名称。
|
||||
|
||||
从给定的描述中,你可以找到所需的软件包,然后选择 `nix-env` 进行永久安装。
|
||||
|
||||
在这里,你可以添加一些额外的关键字以获得更好的搜索结果。例如,在这里,我搜索 “Firefox browser”:
|
||||
|
||||
![][8]
|
||||
|
||||
我上面提到的最后一步(复制命令)什么也不做,只是为你提供了一个用于安装的命令。
|
||||
|
||||
现在,你所要做的就是在终端中执行该命令。
|
||||
|
||||
就我而言,它给了我以下命令来安装 Firefox:
|
||||
|
||||
````
|
||||
|
||||
nix-env -iA nixpkgs.firefox
|
||||
|
||||
````
|
||||
|
||||
完成后,你可以使用以下命令列出已安装的软件包:
|
||||
|
||||
````
|
||||
|
||||
nix-env -q
|
||||
|
||||
````
|
||||
|
||||
![][9]
|
||||
|
||||
### 使用包而不安装它们
|
||||
|
||||
到目前为止,这是 Nix 包管理器的最佳功能,因为你可以使用/测试包甚至不用安装它!
|
||||
|
||||
为此,你可以使用 nix shell,它允许你将交互式 shell 与指定的包一起使用,关闭后,你将无法再访问该包。
|
||||
|
||||
很酷,对吧?
|
||||
|
||||
要使用 nix-shell 访问你喜欢的软件包,请使用以下命令语法:
|
||||
|
||||
````
|
||||
|
||||
nix-shell -p <package_name>
|
||||
|
||||
````
|
||||
|
||||
例如,我想使用一次 neofetch,所以我使用了以下命令:
|
||||
|
||||
````
|
||||
|
||||
nix-shell -p neofetch
|
||||
|
||||
````
|
||||
|
||||
![][10]
|
||||
|
||||
要退出 shell,你所要做的就是执行 `exit` 命令:
|
||||
|
||||
````
|
||||
|
||||
exit
|
||||
|
||||
````
|
||||
|
||||
### 使用 Nix 包管理器更新包
|
||||
|
||||
使用 Nix 包管理器更新包非常简单。
|
||||
|
||||
要更新软件包,首先,你需要使用以下命令更新频道:
|
||||
|
||||
````
|
||||
|
||||
nix-channel --update
|
||||
|
||||
````
|
||||
|
||||
接下来,你可以通过空运行更新命令来列出过时的软件包:
|
||||
|
||||
````
|
||||
|
||||
nix-env --upgrade --dry-run
|
||||
|
||||
````
|
||||
|
||||
![][11]
|
||||
|
||||
就我而言,Firefox 浏览器已经过时,需要更新!
|
||||
|
||||
要更新单个包,请使用以下命令:
|
||||
|
||||
````
|
||||
|
||||
nix-env -u <Package_name>
|
||||
|
||||
````
|
||||
|
||||
如果你想一次更新所有软件包,请使用以下命令:
|
||||
|
||||
````
|
||||
|
||||
nix-env -u
|
||||
|
||||
````
|
||||
|
||||
### 使用 Nix 包管理器删除包
|
||||
|
||||
要删除软件包,你只需按以下方式执行 `nix-env` 命令即可:
|
||||
|
||||
````
|
||||
|
||||
nix-env --uninstall [package_name]
|
||||
|
||||
````
|
||||
|
||||
例如,如果我想删除 Firefox 浏览器,那么,我将使用以下命令:
|
||||
|
||||
````
|
||||
|
||||
nix-env --uninstall firefox
|
||||
|
||||
````
|
||||
|
||||
![][12]
|
||||
|
||||
### 通过 NixOS 释放其全部潜力
|
||||
|
||||
如果你喜欢 Nix 包管理器背后的想法,请相信我,你一定会喜欢 [NixOS][13]。
|
||||
|
||||
仅使用一个配置文件来复制整个系统就足以说服我切换到 NixOS,但还有更多原因:
|
||||
|
||||
我喜欢 NixOS。以至于我写了整个系列,这样你就不必阅读文档(基础知识):
|
||||
|
||||
我希望你能像我一样喜欢使用它。
