## Setup

This project uses [flakes](https://nixos.wiki/wiki/Flakes) so a development environment can be created with

    nix develop

> **NOTE**: there's also support for [direnv](https://direnv.net/) to automate the dev shell process

## Commits

There's no formal commit process at this time.

Do try to format the repo with [treefmt](https://github.com/numtide/treefmt) before submission, however.

    nix fmt

## Kubernetes versions

To support a new Kubernetes version:

- Edit [`./versions.nix`](./versions.nix) and add a new attribute for the version; for example:

  ```nix
  {
    "1.23.0" = "sha256:0jivg8nlxka1y7gzqpcxkmbvhcbxynyrxmjn0blky30q5064wx2a";
  }
  ```

- Build and copy the updated specs to [`modules/generated/`](./modules/generated/)

      nix build '.#generate-k8s'
      cp ./result/* modules/generated/

## Tests

Tests are executed through GitHub actions; see the [workflow definition](../kubenix/.github/workflows/ci.yml) for commands.
