This looks really nice, it saves making the Dockerfile yourself. And just sometimes you want an image but with a bit of extra in it for debugging. If normally you pull that image directly with this you don’t need to setup a build to build and push the custom image only to scuttle it again later.

What is interesting though is that nix is all about reproducible builds but I don’t see a way to specific packaged versions here.



I belive that if you host your own nixery instance, you can pass a nixpkgs commit hash as a docker tag
