Name

       nix store repair - repair store paths

Synopsis

       nix store repair [option…] installables

Examples

       • Repair a store path, after determining that it is corrupt:

       # nix store verify /nix/store/yb5q57zxv6hgqql42d5r8b5k5mcq6kay-hello-2.10
       path '/nix/store/yb5q57zxv6hgqql42d5r8b5k5mcq6kay-hello-2.10' was
       modified! expected hash
       'sha256:1hd5vnh6xjk388gdk841vflicy8qv7qzj2hb7xlyh8lpb43j921l', got
       'sha256:1a25lf78x5wi6pfkrxalf0n13kdaca0bqmjqnp7wfjza2qz5ssgl'

       # nix store repair /nix/store/yb5q57zxv6hgqql42d5r8b5k5mcq6kay-hello-2.10

Description

       This   command  attempts  to  “repair”  the  store  paths  specified  by  installables  by
       redownloading them using the available substituters. If no substitutes are available, then
       repair is not possible.

              Warning

              During  repair,  there is a very small time window during which the old path (if it
              exists) is moved out of the way and replaced  with  the  new  path.  If  repair  is
              interrupted in between, then the system may be left in a broken state (e.g., if the
              path contains a critical system component like the GNU C Library).

Options

       Common evaluation options:

       • --arg name expr
         Pass the value expr as the argument name to Nix functions.

       • --argstr name string
         Pass the string string as the argument name to Nix functions.

       • --eval-store store-url
         The Nix store to use for evaluations.

       • --impure
         Allow access to mutable paths and repositories.

       • --include / -I path
         Add path to the list of locations used to look up <...> file names.

       • --override-flake original-ref resolved-ref
         Override the flake registries, redirecting original-ref to resolved-ref.

       Common flake-related options:

       • --commit-lock-file
         Commit changes to the flake’s lock file.

       • --inputs-from flake-url
         Use the inputs of the specified flake as registry entries.

       • --no-registries
         Don’t allow lookups in the flake registries. This option is  deprecated;  use  --no-use-
         registries.

       • --no-update-lock-file
         Do not allow any updates to the flake’s lock file.

       • --no-write-lock-file
         Do not write the flake’s newly generated lock file.

       • --override-input input-path flake-url
         Override  a  specific  flake input (e.g. dwarffs/nixpkgs). This implies --no-write-lock-
         file.

       • --recreate-lock-file
         Recreate the flake’s lock file from scratch.

       • --update-input input-path
         Update a specific flake input (ignoring its previous entry in the lock file).

       Options that change the interpretation of installables:

       • --all
         Apply the operation to every store path.

       • --derivation
         Operate on the store derivation rather than its outputs.

       • --expr expr
         Interpret installables as attribute paths relative to the Nix expression expr.

       • --file / -f file
         Interpret installables as attribute paths relative to the Nix expression stored in file.

       • --recursive / -r
         Apply operation to closure of the specified paths.

                                                                             nix3-store-repair(1)
