Name
nix log - show the build log of the specified packages or paths, if available
Synopsis
nix log [ option …] installable
Examples
|
• |
Get the build log of GNU Hello: |
# nix log nixpkgs#hello
|
• |
Get the build log of a specific store path: |
# nix log /nix/store/lmngj4wcm9rkv3w4dfhzhcyij3195hiq-thunderbird-52.2.1
|
• |
Get a build log from a specific binary cache: |
# nix log --store https://cache.nixos.org nixpkgs#hello
Description
This command prints the log of a previous build of the installable on standard output.
Nix looks for build logs in two places:
|
• |
In the directory /nix/var/log/nix/drvs, which contains logs for locally built derivations. |
||
|
• |
In the binary caches listed in the substituters setting. Logs should be named <cache>/log/<base-name-of-store-path>, where store-path is a derivation, e.g. https://cache.nixos.org/log/dvmig8jgrdapvbyxb1rprckdmdqx08kv-hello-2.10.drv. For non-derivation store paths, Nix will first try to determine the deriver by fetching the .narinfo file for this store path. |
Options
Common evaluation options
|
• |
--arg name expr |
Pass the value expr as the argument name to Nix functions.
|
• |
--arg-from-file name path |
Pass the contents of file path as the argument name to Nix functions.
|
• |
--arg-from-stdin name |
Pass the contents of stdin as the argument name to Nix functions.
|
• |
--argstr name string |
Pass the string string as the argument name to Nix functions.
|
• |
Start an interactive environment if evaluation fails.
|
• |
--eval-store store-url |
The URL of the Nix store to use for evaluation, i.e. to store derivations (.drv files) and inputs referenced by them.
|
• |
Allow access to mutable paths and repositories.
|
• |
--include / -I path |
Add path to search path entries used to resolve lookup paths
This option may be given multiple times.
Paths added through -I take precedence over the nix-path configuration setting and the NIX_PATH environment variable .
|
• |
--override-flake original-ref resolved-ref |
Override the flake registries, redirecting original-ref to resolved-ref .
Common flake-related options
|
• |
Commit changes to the flake’s lock file.
|
• |
--inputs-from flake-url |
Use the inputs of the specified flake as registry entries.
|
• |
Don’t allow lookups in the flake registries.
DEPRECATED
Use --no-use-registries instead.
|
• |
Do not allow any updates to the flake’s lock file.
|
• |
Do not write the flake’s newly generated lock file.
|
• |
--output-lock-file flake-lock-path |
Write the given lock file instead of flake.lock within the top-level flake.
|
• |
--override-input input-path flake-url |
Override a specific flake input (e.g. dwarffs/nixpkgs). This implies --no-write-lock-file.
|
• |
Recreate the flake’s lock file from scratch.
DEPRECATED
Use nix flake update instead.
|
• |
--reference-lock-file flake-lock-path |
Read the given lock file instead of flake.lock within the top-level flake.
|
• |
--update-input input-path |
Update a specific flake input (ignoring its previous entry in the lock file).
DEPRECATED
Use nix flake update instead.
Logging-related options
|
• |
Set the logging verbosity level to ‘debug’.
|
• |
--log-format format |
Set the format of log output; one of raw, internal-json, bar or bar-with-logs.
|
• |
--print-build-logs / -L |
Print full build logs on standard error.
|
• |
Decrease the logging verbosity level.
|
• |
--verbose / -v |
Increase the logging verbosity level.
Miscellaneous global options
|
• |
Show usage information.
|
• |
Disable substituters and consider all previously downloaded files up-to-date.
|
• |
--option name value |
Set the Nix configuration setting name to value (overriding nix.conf).
|
• |
Consider all previously downloaded files out-of-date.
|
• |
During evaluation, rewrite missing or corrupted files in the Nix store. During building, rebuild missing or corrupted store paths.
|
• |
Show version information.
Options that change the interpretation of installables
|
• |
--expr expr |
Interpret installables as attribute paths relative to the Nix expression expr .
|
• |
--file / -f file |
Interpret installables as attribute paths relative to the Nix expression stored in file . If file is the character -, then a Nix expression will be read from standard input. Implies --impure.
Note
See man nix.conf for overriding configuration settings with command line flags.
