Nixery🔗

Nixery is acontainer image registry that provides small base images with only the packages specified in the URL, separated by slashes.

When the first element is shell than the bash and coreutils are part of the image. After that packages from the Nix package manager can be added. Any package available at https://search.nixos.org/packages can be installed.

The following command starts a shell in a container based on a Nixery image that contains the coreutils with bash and the packages git and python312.

$ docker run -it --rm nixery.dev/shell/git/python312 bash

Nixery can be used to debug slim containers.
