A simple gtk4/libadwaita software center to easily install and manage nix packages

Nix Software Center

A graphical app store for Nix built with libadwaita, GTK4, and Relm4. Heavily inspired by GNOME Software.

Features

• Install packages to configuration.nix
  • Flakes support can be enabled in the preferences menu
• Install packages with nix profile or nix-env
• Show updates for all installed packages
• Search for packages
• Launch applications without installing via nix-shell and nix run

NixOS Flakes Installation

flake.nix

{
  inputs = {
    # other inputs
    nix-software-center.url = "github:snowfallorg/nix-software-center";
# rest of flake.nix

configuration.nix

environment.systemPackages = with pkgs; [
    inputs.nix-software-center.packages.${system}.nix-software-center
    # rest of your packages
];

NixOS Installation

Head of configuration.nix

if you are on unstable channel or any version after 22.11:

{ config, pkgs, lib, ... }:
let
  nix-software-center = import (pkgs.fetchFromGitHub {
    owner = "snowfallorg";
    repo = "nix-software-center";
    rev = "0.1.2";
    sha256 = "xiqF1mP8wFubdsAQ1BmfjzCgOD3YZf7EGWl9i69FTls=";
  }) {};
in

Packages:

```nix
environment.systemPackages =
with pkgs; [
  nix-software-center
  # rest of your packages
];

For any other method of installation, when rebuilding you might be prompted to authenticate twice in a row by pkexec

'nix profile' installation

nix profile install github:snowfallorg/nix-software-center

'nix-env' Installation

git clone https://github.com/snowfallorg/nix-software-center
nix-env -f nix-software-center -i nix-software-center

Single run on an flakes enabled system:

nix run github:snowfallorg/nix-software-center

Single run on non-flakes enabled system:

nix --extra-experimental-features "nix-command flakes" run github:snowfallorg/nix-software-center

nix-software-center's Issues

Panick on lauch

The app is able to launch without any problem, but when I try to to click on any button it crashes and the following error pops up:

thread 'main' panicked at 'called `Result::unwrap()` on an `Err` value: Close', /build/nix-software-center-0.1.0-vendor.tar.gz/relm4/src/channel/component.rs:67:34
note: run with `RUST_BACKTRACE=1` environment variable to display a backtrace

Side note: I installed with nix-env.

Thanks for helping !

FR: add a preference to install at system level by default

Some users like to install everything at System level, now by default, User shows first. Would be nice to have a preference to set the default preferred way of installing. Or maybe remember the last selected?

`OpenConf` don't work with `nix shell`

`x86_64-darwin` Support

This is an awesome project! I use the nix package manager on Macos, and would love to have this GUI.

Is there any chance of adding a x86_64-darwin target?

Configure packages

Nix makes it relatively easy to configure packages, compared to other package managers. It would be great if the GUI can make this more accessible.

There are some discussions to improve it in nixpkgs, one is to design a module system for packages (https://discourse.nixos.org/t/working-group-member-search-module-system-for-packages/26574).

It would be great if you could create a design for the GUI and discuss with nixpkgs what you need from them.

These are some example arguments packages have:

• enableUnfree
• withUnfree
• withSpeech
• enableLibunwind
• ffmpegVariant
• withAlsa

Those can be simple toggles.

But there can be also an interface for simple overrides like source url, version, dependencies. Whatever an end-user might need.

This might be in conflict with the approach to build an frontend for snow.

Submit to GNOME Software as a plugin

Currently the software center is its own thing, as Nix functions differently from a normal package manager in many ways. However, I feel it would be ideal to instead make a plugin (possibly on top of an abstraction) and work with GNOME Software devs to allow it to work better with a plugin of this type.

FR: display long description

Display long description of packages. For example, the long description for solaar package indicates an interesting option to enable: https://search.nixos.org/packages?channel=22.11&show=solaar&from=0&size=50&sort=relevance&type=packages&query=solaar

How to fix the configuration?

Running once-off works with the enable-experimenal flakes command.

FR: Support for multiple channels

Requires #34

If we could have a drop-down menu in which we could see the version number in stable and the one in unstable, and select which one to install, that would be awesome.

"Run without installing" fails

When I try to "Run without installing" wezterm (just what I happened to try), I get env: ‘gtk-launch’: No such file or directory on the console and nothing else happens.

I presume this is because I run i3 and have no proper desktop environment installed. Presumably a version of gtk-launch from the nix store should be used, rather than searching PATH.

And yes, I can nix run nixpkgs#wezterm without a problem.

Black border in KDE

I'm having this weird bug when I try to use nix-software-center in KDE. There is a thick black border around the app, and it does not respect the GTK theme I have set. I do not have this issue in any other GTK based app.

Suggestion: Home-manager support

It would be nice to be able to configure home.nix with this app to install applications not unlike configuration.nix.

FR: display version

Would be nice to see which version of the package/software we are installing

No actual issue, just THANKS

thanks for making this! I love using it.

Display content warnings based on Open Age Ratings Service (OARS)

We can be the 4th on the list: https://hughsie.github.io/oars/

This could replace Platforms if you decide to remove it (#9).

Error when installing to configuration.nix

When I tried to install mission-center I got this error

Support for `home-manager`

I use non-NixOS, instead home-manager to manage my Nix packages. It would be appreciated if there was README information for how to install this software for this kind of setup.

EDIT: interestingly, it works fine in nixos-conf-editor

Too many platforms

Not all platforms can be shown.

I would even questions if a used need to see them all in this program. I guess they would only care about the information if their current platform is supported.

Maybe remove it completely and show those programs that are not supported greyed out in the overview and show a big red warning above all in detail view.

Suggestion: Upstream to nixpkgs

This program along with the NixOS graphical configurator should be upstreamed to nixpkgs to make it easier to install.

Packages installed by options not listed as installed

For example Steam:

Maybe there would be a way to recognize this situation and integrate with nixos-conf-editor to have one button to edit it there.

FR: search as soon as typing

After opening the software center, it would be nice to be able to type directly to start a search, without having to click on the search button

Occasionly crashes GNOME

Sometimes, when I press on the ≡ button, it crashes gnome, returning me to the gdm login menu. I don't know what's going on.

FR: support for multi-files configuration.nix

My main configuration file is /etc/nixox/configuration.nix, however, I keep my environment.systemPackages in aroun.nix and have import in configuration.nix via

imports =
    [ # Include the results of the hardware scan.
      ./hardware-configuration.nix
      ./aroun.nix
    ];

If the sofware-center parser could open the files under imports, parse them, and find the location of environment.systemPackages, that would be great

cf. snowfallorg/nixos-conf-editor#7

gets rebuilt after each garbage collection

When installed in NixOS via configuration.nix, if I garbage-collect, and then nixos-rebuild, the software-center gets built again. I may want to try the solution mentioned in https://discourse.nixos.org/t/pinned-nixpkgs-keeps-getting-garbage-collected/12912/6 and if that fixes, I'll PR that.

Same goes with nixos-conf-editor.

Stuck on Loading...

In my terminal I get an error message

allow configuring icons

hi there,
thanks for making this!
this might be a bit of a nitpick, but i was wondering if it might be possible to allow configuring the icon set used for the software in the store.
e.g. i'm personally using papirus icons in nixos now, and imagine others might have icon sets they like as well.
i thought it might be possible to user a system-provided icon set, although maybe another way could be to have a configuration allowing to set preferences like this.

Highlight if packages should be managed by services instead

Currently, some tools (like docker, tailscale) don't really work without being enabled as NixOS services. It would be good to identify such services (either by scanning nixos modules somehow or maintaining a manual list) and inform users that they should enable the services instead.

[Feature Request] Ability to install packages using nix profile into /nix/var/nix/profiles/default

There are only two options, you can install software on the user nix profile and you can install packages into configuration.nix. There is no option that involves running nix profile as a root user to install packages system wide without having configuration.nix managing the packages. When nix profile or nix-env is ran as root, it uses a system wide local profile called /nix/var/nix/profiles/default. So it would be nice if that is an option to do it. It just needs to run nix profile or nix-env as root instead of the current user.

error installing via nixos flakes way

Hi, i'm new in nixos and i have no idea how to fix this error:

sudo nixos-rebuild switch --flake .#host

       46|

Is a vanilla kde installation with flakes enabled, nothing more. The single runs works.

Setting default installation profile

I don't want to install packages using nix profile, yet it is the default option when starting the program. I would like to set configuration.nix as the default option.

Install multiple Apps at once

Support installation of multiple packages at once

As it is probably know, but when we install packages in NixOs with the configuration file we first edit it and than rebuild it. In this method it is normal to add multiple packages to the configuration file and than apply the changes. However, in nix software center the system needs to be rebuild for each installation of a single program.

When several packages needs to be installed this method is very time consuming. In contrast, when there would be a method to first select multiple packages which should be installed/removed and than apply the changes would be much more efficient.

Unfortunately I am not a programmer and do not now how hard this feature it is to implement, but maybe it is not that difficult.

For me this feature would make nix software center an even better program as it is more how the installation of multiple packages with the config file in NixOs works. In addition it would make the usage of the software center more efficient.

Screenshots sometimes not loading

For some programs the screenshots do not load!

• klavaro

• superTaxKart
• gnome-hexgl
• openmw
• pioneer

Others work:

• samplv1

• sound-juicer
• amarok
• gpodder
• flare
• manaplus

Where does this need to be fixed? Maybe in the upstream source for the metadata?

version 0.1.0 (which does now work on NixOS stable btw)

NixOS Flakes Installation example fails to build.

I followed the new instructions added to the README for installing with flakes.

Here is a branch of my nix configuration where I tried to apply the changes. This is the error I get when building:

I'm guessing there is some additional thing I need to pass to my configuration.nix. Is there anything I'm missing?

Malformed package database: error returned from database: (code: 11) database disk image is malformed

I installed the new version with the new instructions for NixOS 22.11 (https://github.com/vlinkz/nix-software-center/pull/36/files).

The GUI is stuck on loading and i get an error in terminal.

^C

To improve UX, the GUI should show the error and not pretend to be loading.

Also, such an error should not happen. It's fine while it's not a stable release, but annoying for users.

I guess to fix it, i have to delete the database and let it create a new one. What database does it mean and where is it?
Such a fix can also be shown in the GUI. Maybe have a button "Delete and create new database".

"Could not load new packages"

Hey great to see something like this started, the app looks beautiful from the screenshots!

I had a go at running it, but to no luck:

Some notes:

• I am on the internet (that's how I could nix run it).
• I don't have a configuration.nix in the /etc/nixos location. I keep my main configuration in a flake under a directory within my $HOME (not sure if this affects the package search).
• System details:

  [mindtree@minddesk:~]$ nix run nixpkgs#nix-info -- -m

non-nixos distros?

Can nix-software-center be used on debian-based distros without issue? I'm new to nix, and would like to use the package manager without the OS.

thread 'tokio-runtime-worker' panicked, stuck on loading

Hello! I would love to use this but it gets stuck on loading. It also has an error in console.

update fails

Hi there!

Thank you for the amazing piece of software!
NixOS is my favorite OS and Snowflake OS could become my new favorite flavor.
In particular to install on friends and family machines, this is amazing.

Now about the issue, the update seem to fail, both "update everything", and "System" "Update".

Support different sources like Flatpak

In my vision, the Nix GUI supports different sources like NixOS stable, unstable and Flatpak. Maybe others if they are relevant.
If people should use Nix on other operating systems, i think we have to support their package manager as well. So it would be easier to make GNOME Software support Nix instead of making this support many package managers.

The sources selection would be a drop-down at the top right (where a different drop-down is currently).

There can be sources specific settings where you can add, remove or disable sources, disallow/allow unfree, broken, unsecure or unstable packages.

If there are multiple versions of the same package due to this, the drop down on the install button should show the different versions with source in (). The default can be from your default channel like nixos, but there can also be a setting "preferred source", so you could prefer Flathub.

The current drop-down options (Run without install, interactive shell) seem quite a special case and can be hidden more. Maybe a second butten right to the install button.

Minor feature request - search shortcut

As far as I can tell, the only way to trigger the search bar is by clicking the button - it would be nice for keyboard centric workflows to be supported, so adding a ctrl-f shortcut (or just triggering search on any alphabetic key) would be nice

"Open interactive shell" fails silently

When I try to "Open interactive shell" for wezterm (just what I happened to try), nothing happens at all, on console or elsewhere. No processes are started, or at least none that last long enough to see.

Overlay not working?

I tried to install the package with an overlay:

           nixpkgs.overlays = [ inputs.nix-software-center.overlays.pkgs ];
           environment.systemPackages = with pkgs; [
             nix-software-center
           ];

but it does not compile anything, and at the end the program nix-software-center is not available. On the other hand:

          environment.systemPackages = with pkgs; [
            inputs.nix-software-center.packages.${system}.nix-software-center
          ];

seems to work (at least it compiles stuff).

Also, I saw a commit by @dezren39 that was renaming overlays like nixpkgs.overlays.pkgs instead of nixpkgs.overlays.default, why is it the case? The wiki seems to suggest that default is the current standard notation no?

Open button not working?

First thanks a lot for this great peace of software. It is really pleasant to use, fast, and I like the fact that it supports very elegantly both the imperative (flake or non-flake) and declarative (via configuration.nix) mode. But after my quick test it works really nicely, except for one (surprisingly easy to implement… I would expect) feature: the "Open" button is never working (tried with software installed locally, system-wide, already installed, newly installed…). Clicking on it just does… nothing. Let me know how I can provide more help with this.
