Description

This command shows what packages are currently installed in a profile. The output consists of one line per package, with the following fields:

•   An integer that can be used to unambiguously identify the package in invocations of nix profile remove and nix profile upgrade.

•   The original (“mutable”) flake reference and output attribute path used at installation time.

•   The immutable flake reference to which the mutable flake reference was resolved.

•   The store path(s) of the package.

Options

•   --profile path
    The profile to update.

Common evaluation options:

•   --arg name expr
    Pass the value expr as the argument name to Nix functions.

•   --argstr name string
    Pass the string string as the argument name to Nix functions.

•   --eval-store store-url
    The Nix store to use for evaluations.

•   --impure
    Allow access to mutable paths and repositories.

•   --include / -I path
    Add path to the list of locations used to look up <...> file names.

•   --override-flake original-ref resolved-ref
    Override the flake registries, redirecting original-ref to resolved-ref.
