Nix Flake for Commandbox

Usage

{
  inputs = {
    nixpkgs.url = "github:NixOS/nixpkgs/release-23.11";
    flake-utils.url = "github:numtide/flake-utils";
    commandbox = {
      url = "github:FeliciousX/commandbox-flake";
      inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs";
      inputs.flake-utils.follows = "flake-utils";
    };
  };

  outputs = { self, nixpkgs, flake-utils, commandbox }:
    flake-utils.lib.eachDefaultSystem (system:
      let
        pkgs = import nixpkgs {
          inherit system;
        };
        box = commandbox.packages.${system}.default.override {
          # defaults to nixpkgs.jdk if not specified
          jdk = pkgs.jdk11_headless;
        };
      in {
        devShells.default = pkgs.mkShell {
          nativeBuildInputs = [ pkgs.bashInteractive ];
          packages = [
            box
          ];
        };
      });
}

TODO:

• Support windows binary when running on windows
• Support non-flake
