The new `nix daemon` command didn't accept the same flags that `nix-daemon` did. * docs(daemon): clarify the daemon trust override flags * fix: change declaration order * docs: add examples of nix daemon usage * Apply suggestions from code review --------- Co-authored-by: Eelco Dolstra <edolstra@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: John Ericson <git@JohnEricson.me> Co-authored-by: tomberek <tomberek@users.noreply.github.com>

# Examples
|
|
|
|
* Run the daemon:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
# nix daemon
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
* Run the daemon and listen on standard I/O instead of binding to a UNIX socket:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
# nix daemon --stdio
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
* Run the daemon and force all connections to be trusted:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
# nix daemon --force-trusted
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
* Run the daemon and force all connections to be untrusted:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
# nix daemon --force-untrusted
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
* Run the daemon, listen on standard I/O, and force all connections to use Nix's default trust:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
# nix daemon --stdio --default-trust
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
# Description
|
|
|
|
This command runs the Nix daemon, which is a required component in
|
|
multi-user Nix installations. It runs build tasks and other
|
|
operations on the Nix store on behalf of non-root users. Usually you
|
|
don't run the daemon directly; instead it's managed by a service
|
|
management framework such as `systemd` on Linux, or `launchctl` on Darwin.
|
|
|
|
Note that this daemon does not fork into the background.
