Hi there.
For those of you using docker on nixos, how are you dealing with bind mounts and symlinks?
In my case, I have a python tool (available as a pip package) that is not in nixpkgs, nor have I been able to figure out how to get it done. I’m giving up on that as I have wasted too much time. Do the person who wrote the tool provides a docker container. Generally, it works great.
Now, I have some config files for the tool that I was trying to create using home.file
(home manager).
As expected, these files are now a symlink. Which docker falls down on with bind mounts.
Sure, I can manually put real files in place. But I was hoping for a more “nix” like solution.
Especially as I have similar use cases for work too.
Any ideas?
Thank you.
