NixOS is a linux distribution based on a purely functional package manager. This project builds .box images that can be used by vagrant, the VM manager.

stable

vagrant init zimbatm/nixbox32
# or
vagrant init zimbatm/nixbox64

Also have a look at the nixos vagrant plugin: https://github.com/oxdi/vagrant-nixos

First install packer and virtualbox

Then:

packer build nixbox32-template.json
# or
packer build nixbox64-template.json

The .box image is now ready to go and you can use it in vagrant:

vagrant box add nixbox32 nixbox32-virtualbox.box
# or
vagrant box add nixbox64 nixbox64-virtualbox.box
