#Nix search Matrix bot

A Matrix bot that searches Nix packages

You can find an instance of the bot at @nix-search-bot:catgirl.cloud, hosted by @fgaz:matrix.org.

#Usage

Invite the bot to any unencrypted room, then use !pkg <query> to search for packages.

#Deployment

A NixOS module is included. You can use it directly (./module.nix) or you can import nixosModules.default from the Nix flake.

On other systems, build the package with cargo build --release then run target/release/nix-search-matrix-bot <homeserver> <username> <password_file>.
