nix.nixRaw

import { nix } from "https://garn.io/ts/v0.0.20/mod.ts"; 

const { nixRaw } = nix;

A template literal function to construct NixExpressions from raw strings.

Example:

const myNixExpr = nixRaw`
  let
    x = ${someNixExpr};
    y = ${otherNixExpr};
  in
    x y
`;

It explicitly does not allow interpolating strings since it is not clear what the correct behavior should be. Instead:

If the string you want to interpolate is a Nix expression, wrap the string in nixRaw before interpolating, or consider using a NixExpression type instead of string.

If the string you want to interpolate is meant to turn into a string in Nix, wrap the string in nixStrLit before interpolating.

function nixRaw(s: TemplateStringsArray, ...interpolations: Array<NixExpression>): NixExpression;

function nixRaw(s: string): NixExpression;

function nixRaw(s: TemplateStringsArray | string, ...interpolations: Array<NixExpression>): NixExpression;

nixRaw(s: TemplateStringsArray, ...interpolations: Array<NixExpression>): NixExpression
