nix3-store-add(1)	     General Commands Manual	       nix3-store-add(1)

	    Warning
	    This program is experimental and its interface is subject to change.

Name
     nix store add - Add a file or directory to the Nix store

Synopsis
     nix store add [option...] path

Description
     Copy  path to the Nix store, and print the resulting store path on standard
     output.

	    Warning

	    The resulting store path is not registered as  a  garbage  collector
	    root,  so  it  could be deleted before you have a chance to register
	    it.

Examples
     Add a directory to the store:

     # mkdir dir
     # echo foo > dir/bar

     # nix store add ./dir
     /nix/store/6pmjx56pm94n66n4qw1nff0y1crm8nqg-dir

     # cat /nix/store/6pmjx56pm94n66n4qw1nff0y1crm8nqg-dir/bar
     foo

Options
     *	--dry-run

	Show what this command would do without doing it.

     *	--hash-algo hash-algo

	Hash algorithm (blake3, md5, sha1, sha256, or sha512).

     *	--mode content-address-method

	How to compute the content-address of the store object.  One of:

	*  nar (the default): Serialises the input as a Nix Archive  and  passes
	   that to the hash function.

	*  flat:  Assumes that the input is a single file and directly passes it
	   to the hash function.

	*  text: Like flat, but used for derivations serialized in store  object
	   and	builtins.toFile.  For advanced use-cases only; for regular usage
	   prefer nar and flat.

     *	--name / -n name

	Override the name component of the store path. It defaults to  the  base
	name of path.

   Logging-related options
     *	--debug

	Set the logging verbosity level to `debug'.

     *	--log-format format

	Set  the  format  of  log output; one of raw, internal-json, bar or bar-
	with-logs.

     *	--print-build-logs / -L

	Print full build logs on standard error.

     *	--quiet

	Decrease the logging verbosity level.

     *	--verbose / -v

	Increase the logging verbosity level.

   Miscellaneous global options
     *	--help

	Show usage information.

     *	--offline

	Disable substituters and consider all previously downloaded files up-to-
	date.

     *	--option name value

	Set the Nix configuration setting name to value (overriding nix.conf).

     *	--refresh

	Consider all previously downloaded files out-of-date.

     *	--version

	Show version information.

	Note

	See man nix.conf for overriding configuration settings with command line
	flags.
