Name
nix derivation add - add a store derivation
Synopsis
nix derivation add [option…]
Description
This command reads from standard input a JSON representation of a store derivation.
Store derivations are used internally by Nix. They are store paths with extension .drv that represent the build-time dependency graph to which a Nix expression evaluates.
nix derivation add takes a single derivation in the JSON format. See the manual for a documentation of this format.
