nix-bitcoin-0.0.3
Published by jonasnick over 4 years ago
Published by jonasnick over 4 years ago
This is the first release of nix-bitcoin. It changes the way how nix-bitcoin is supposed to be used for deployments. The old way of keeping up with nix-bitcoin updates - merging upstream changes into the own deployment via git pull - is now deprecated. This means that nix-bitcoin is from now on updated through releases, which can be fetched with the fetch-release command in the nix-shell (see the update doc).
The main difference is that in order to deploy nix-bitcoin you are not supposed to fork and modify this repository anymore.
Instead, you have your own repository with a configuration.nix and import a release of nix-bitcoin. See the examples/
directory and in particular the shell.nix
for how this works now and PR #136 for the actual changes that led to this release.
Note that since nix-bitcoin can be used in various ways. There's no single migration guide that can cover everything. This migration guide covers a installation on NixOS that is deployed with NixOps.
In particular, have a look at examples/shell.nix
, the changes to installation instructions, as well as the new update process (PR #136).
If you have further questions I'm happy to assist in #nix-bitcoin on freenode.
