Allow URLs in the Nix search path E.g. to install "hello" from the latest Nixpkgs: $ nix-build '<nixpkgs>' -A hello -I nixpkgs=https://nixos.org/channels/nixpkgs-unstable/nixexprs.tar.xz Or to install a specific version of NixOS: $ nixos-rebuild switch -I nixpkgs=https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/archive/63def04891a0abc328b1b0b3a78ec02c58f48583.tar.gz 2015-05-05 17:09:42 +02:00			`Path downloadFileCached(const string & url, bool unpack);`

Use cached result if there is a network error 2015-04-09 12:49:13 +02:00			`MakeError(DownloadError, Error)`

nix-env/nix-instantiate/nix-build: Support URIs For instance, you can install Firefox from a specific Nixpkgs revision like this: $ nix-env -f https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/archive/63def04891a0abc328b1b0b3a78ec02c58f48583.tar.gz -iA firefox Or build a package from the latest nixpkgs-unstable channel: $ nix-build https://nixos.org/channels/nixpkgs-unstable/nixexprs.tar.xz -A hello 2015-05-06 14:54:31 +02:00			`bool isUri(const string & s);`
