This project is intended to replace and improve on NixOps 2. It fixes a number of structural issues through a rewrite from first principles.

Status: in development

• Support stateless and stateful deployments.
• Fix the NixOps resource syntax.
• Provide a stable interface for defining resources, so that resource developers have a well-defined task, and minimal maintenance afterwards.
• Deployment projects provide can choose or provide their own resource implementations.
• Sustainable development, by reusing existing technologies such as the module system and OpenTofu.
• Maintainable code base in Rust.

The following will open a shell with dependencies, and install pre-commit for automatic formatting.

$ nix develop

If the rust-analyzer extension fails, make sure the devShell was loaded into VSCode via Nix Env Selector or direnv.

Thank you to the NixOps 1 / 2 authors and maintainers, for exploring the domain, and for their efforts to maintain and improve it.

Another special thanks goes to the Fediversity project, for their support to push NixOps over the bump that is NixOps4, and for their commitment to give back to the Nix community.
