}

the command nix run "works". Not as intended, it opens only the python interpreter but this is another question.

But the command nix run doesn't work

This error message doesn't refer to any part of my code. This is difficult to know which part causes a problem

  • If you look in `/nix/store/ggvg85rp5qzyr9bngsl6r0pcrkyxqa49-source`, what do you see? If what you see is the part of your code that has been checked into git, but as the error message indicates `poetry.lock` isn't there, that tells you that `poetry.lock` _hasn't_ been checked in. – Charles Duffy Jul 31 '23 at 19:08

Why 'nix run' opens the python interpreter

The 'apps' attrset in a flake only supports the 'program' and 'type' attrs. It can only be used with binaries or shell scripts. It's ignoring your args and just running 'python' with zero args. You can fix that by either creating a single binary/script to run and using that, or by using nix develop with a shellHook instead.

Why 'nix build' doesn't work

 error: getting status of '/nix/store/ggvg85rp5qzyr9bngsl6r0pcrkyxqa49-source/poetry.lock'

poetry.lock has most likely not been added to your git repo with 'git add.' Flakes are only aware of files that have been committed or staged in your git repository

    I've never used `apps`, but for `packages` one can certainly pass through `"$@"` without issue (`nix run .#progname -- arg1 arg2 ...`) – Charles Duffy Jul 31 '23 at 19:05
