📦 version 0.2.1, in nixos 26.05, nixpkgs unstable

💖 NAME 💖

okay so welcome to the namaka(1) page bestie, you're gonna love her — namaka is snapshot testing for Nix, built on top of haumea. that's the whole vibe.

the official home base is https://github.com/nix-community/namaka — go say hi, she's iconic ✨

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

namaka [-c|--cmd] [-h|--help] [-V|--version] [DIR] <subcommands>

like, that's the whole shape of it: some flags, maybe a directory, and then a subcommand doing the actual work. main character energy fr 🎀

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Snapshot testing for Nix based on haumea 💅 that's it, that's the pitch, and honestly? she ate.

the canonical link is https://github.com/nix-community/namaka so you always know where she lives. no cap.

✨ OPTIONS ✨

  • -c, --cmd=CMD — tells namaka to run this command instead of the default nix flake check. such a mood. here's the example straight from the source, no edits:
namaka check -c nix eval .#checks
  • -h, --help — prints the help text. quick lil note: it says (see a summary with '-h') — so -h gives you the short version, and the full glorious one is the long help. 💖
  • -V, --version — prints the version. that's the whole thing. slay.
  • [DIR] — change to this working directory first. like walking into the right room before you start rearranging furniture bestie 🫶

🌈 SUBCOMMANDS 🌈

  • namaka-check(1) — a wrapper around nix flake check, except it also prepares snapshots for the tests that failed. she's got your back 😭
  • namaka-clean(1) — yeets the unused and pending snapshots. spring cleaning but make it Nix 🧚
  • namaka-review(1) — lets you go through pending snapshots and selectively accept or reject them. you're the judge, you're the jury, you're the moment 👑
  • namaka-help(1) — prints this message, or the help for whichever subcommand you point her at. the helpful one. 💜

⭐ VERSION ⭐

v0.2.1
ngl the vibes are immaculate, but remember: options and subcommands are exactly as written — don't go freestyling spellings or you'll be sad 😭
