DISNIX-CAPTURE-MANIFEST(1)

📦 version 0.10.2, in nixos 26.05, nixpkgs unstable

💅 NAME 💅

ok so disnix-capture-manifest — this is a page from the User Commands manual, and basically this little icon does the ultimate recon mission: it captures all the ingredients you need for reconstructing a deployment manifest, pulling them straight from the manifests of the target profiles 🎀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

disnix-capture-manifest [OPTION] infrastructure_nix

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay bestie, listen — the command disnix-capture-manifest is out here doing the most, and we love her for it. She captures the manifests of the target Disnix profiles, then retrieves their intra-dependency closures, and then composes a Nix expression that you can use to reconstruct the deployment manifest on the coordinator machine. literally the full glow-up pipeline ✨👑

💖 OPTIONS 💖

  • -p, --profile=PROFILE — the name of the profile in which the services are registered. defaults to: default 🌸
  • --interface=INTERFACE — path to the executable that communicates with a Disnix interface. defaults to disnix-ssh-client 🫶
  • --target-property=PROP — the target property of an infrastructure model that specifies how to connect to the remote Disnix interface. (defaults to hostname) 🦋
  • -m, --max-concurrent-transfers=NUM — the maximum amount of concurrent closure transfers. defaults to: 2 💫
  • --xml — specifies that the configurations are in XML, not the Nix expression language 📜
  • -h, --help — shows the usage of this command to the user 🙋‍♀️
  • -v, --version — shows the version of this command to the user 🏷️

🌈 ENVIRONMENT 🌈

  • DISNIX_CLIENT_INTERFACE — sets the client interface (which defaults to disnix-ssh-client) 💻
  • DISNIX_TARGET_PROPERTY — specifies which property in the infrastructure Nix expression specifies how to connect to the remote interface (defaults to: hostname) 🔌
  • DISNIX_PROFILE — sets the name of the profile that stores the manifest on the coordinator machine and the deployed services per machine on each target (defaults to: default) 🗂️
