This was released as part of https://github.com/cachix/cachix-action/releases/tag/v9, would you consider it fixed?

[domenkozar]

Closing as fixed due to no complains

What do you want to filter on - derivation name?

[hmenke]

I have the same request, but for me it's flake inputs. Most of my cache space is taken up by different nixexprs.tar.xz.

[domenkozar]

@hmenke what's the full store path?

[hmenke]

@domenkozar For example this one: https://hmenke.cachix.org/64rwqa366f99rd020b2isz634b7mf43b.narinfo (which is just github:NixOS/nixpkgs/2c58a9dac0bd5f5620394c7c6f623355f9f476d2)

[domenkozar]

That one is trickier to filter out because the name of the derivation is always -source.

For flakes it would be better to have a settings what to cache - everything | dev | runtime.

I've been using a GH Action to build my kwin-lowlatency overlay every time one of the unstable channels updates, and I noticed that most of the storage is being used up by nixexprs.tar.xzs:

I'm not sure if this is caused by me specifying nix_path: nixpkgs=channel:nixos-unstable(-small) in my build.yml, or if this is just something that happens all the time when using install-nix-action.

Regardless, it would be great if there were a way to filter these out, either by a user-configurable filter or just as a special case.

Resolving the channel: URI seems to be a special case in Nix itself, if that's at all helpful.

[domenkozar]

Thanks all for the feedback, I've bumped the priority on this one.

I've been using it since it was merged, it works great! Thank you! :)
