# Nix classic interface
|
|
|
|
> A classic, stable interface to a powerful package manager that makes package management reliable, reproducible, and declarative.
|
|
> Some Nix commands such as `nix-build`, `nix-shell`, `nix-env`, and `nix-store` have their own pages. See also: `tldr nix`.
|
|
> More information: <https://nixos.org>.
|
|
|
|
- Search for a package in nixpkgs via its name:
|
|
|
|
`nix-env -qaP {{search_term_regexp}}`
|
|
|
|
- Start a shell with the specified packages available:
|
|
|
|
`nix-shell -p {{pkg1 pkg2 pkg3...}}`
|
|
|
|
- Install some packages permanently:
|
|
|
|
`nix-env -iA {{nixpkgs.pkg1 nixpkgs.pkg2...}}`
|
|
|
|
- Show all dependencies of a store path (package), in a tree format:
|
|
|
|
`nix-store --query --tree {{/nix/store/...}}`
|
|
|
|
- Update the channels (repositories):
|
|
|
|
`nix-channel --update`
|
|
|
|
- Remove unused paths from Nix store:
|
|
|
|
`nix-collect-garbage`
