KCL Nix Flake

This repository provides a Nix flake for the KCL (Kubernetes Configuration Language) toolchain, including the KCL CLI and KCL Language Server.

Features

• Easy installation and usage of KCL tools through Nix
• Cross-platform support (Linux and macOS, both x86_64 and aarch64)
• Reproducible builds and development environments
• Seamless integration with other Nix-based projects

Prerequisites

• Nix package manager with flakes enabled

Usage

To use this flake in your project, add it to your flake.nix inputs:

{
  inputs = {
    nixpkgs.url = "github:NixOS/nixpkgs/nixos-unstable";
    flake-utils.url = "github:numtide/flake-utils";
    kclpkgs.url = "github:appthrust/kcl-nix";
  };

  outputs = { self, nixpkgs, flake-utils, kclpkgs }:
    flake-utils.lib.eachDefaultSystem (system:
      let
        pkgs = import nixpkgs { inherit system; };
        kcl = kclpkgs.default.${system};
      in
      {
        devShells.default = pkgs.mkShell {
          buildInputs = [
            kcl.cli
            kcl.language-server
          ];
        };
      }
    );
}

Then, you can enter a development shell with KCL tools available:

nix develop
