Flake Module

The flake module output (nimi.flakeModule) wires Nimi into a flake-parts setup. It takes named service definitions and turns them into runnable Nimi binaries and container images, so you can build local runners, CI checks, and deployable artifacts from one source of truth.

What it provides

For each perSystem.nimi.<name> entry, the module generates:

• packages.<name>-service: a Nimi runtime binary built from the services module.
• packages.<name>-container: a container image bundling that runtime.
• checks.<name>-service and checks.<name>-container: the same outputs, wired into CI.

Minimal example

{
  perSystem = { pkgs, ... }: {
    nimi."web" = {
      services."my-app" = {
        process.argv = [
          (lib.getExe pkgs.my-app)
          "--port"
          "8080"
        ];
      };
      settings.restart.mode = "up-to-count";
      settings.restart.time = 2000;
    };
  };
}

Build or run the outputs:

nix build .#web-service
nix build .#web-container

Notes

• The module is designed for flake-parts and expects perSystem.nimi entries.
• Outputs are generated per system, so each target platform gets its own runner.
