@cindex Nix
@subsubheading Nix service
The @code{(gnu services nix)} module provides the following service.
@defvr {Scheme Variable} nix-service-type
This is the type of the service that runs build daemon of the
@url{https://nixos.org/nix/, Nix} package manager. Here is an example showing
how to use it:
@example
(use-modules (gnu))
(use-service-modules nix)
(use-package-modules package-management)
(operating-system
;; @dots{}
(packages (append (list nix)
%base-packages))
(services (append (list (service nix-service-type))
%base-services)))
@end example
After @command{guix system reconfigure} configure Nix for your user:
@itemize
@item Add a Nix channel and update it. See @url{https://nixos.org/nix/manual/,
Nix Package Manager Guide}.
@item Create a symlink to your profile and activate Nix profile:
@end itemize
@example
$ ln -s "/nix/var/nix/profiles/per-user/$USER/profile" ~/.nix-profile
$ source /run/current-system/profile/etc/profile.d/nix.sh
@end example
@end defvr
@node Setuid Programs
@section Setuid Programs
