| In the spirit of Marie Kondo, I'm tidying up!
TL;DR:
- Prefer .envrc `use_nix` and delete all dir-locals.nix files
- Remove ~all references to <nixpkgs>, <unstable>, <depot> and prefer
  referencing each with briefcase.third_party.{pkgs,unstable,depot}
- Delete nixBufferFromShell function since I was only using that in
  dir-locals.nix files | ||

Nix + Google Cloud Run (i.e. GCR)
I'm documenting how I currently deploy projects that I package with Nix on Google Cloud Run.
I'd like to automate this workflow as much as possible, and I intend to do just that. For now, I'm running things manually until I can design an generalization that appeals to me.
Dependencies
- nix-build
- docker
- gcloud
Step-by-step
- Use nix-buildto create our Docker image for Cloud Run.
> nix-build ./cloud_run.nix
This outputs a Docker image at ./result.
- Load the built image (i.e. ./result) intodockerso that we can tag it and push it to the Google Container Registry (i.e. GCR).
> sudo docker load <./result
- (Optionally) Run the image locally to verify its integrity.
> sudo docker run -d -p 8080:4242 <name>:<tag>
- Tag and push the image to GCR.
> sudo docker tag <name>:<label> gcr.io/<google-cloud-project-id>/<name>:<latest>
- Visit Google Cloud Run; create a new service with "Create Service"; select the uploaded Docker image from the "Container Image URL" field; click "Create" to deploy.
Notes
You may need to authorize gcloud by running the following:
> sudo gcloud auth login --no-launch-browser
You must use sudo here since the docker invocations are prefixed with sudo
as well.
Todos
- If possible, prefer using a command line tool like gcloudto create the Cloud Run service.
