  • secanaOPtoNix / NixOS•Nix develop shell not using custom TSL certificatesEnglish

    Sure. I import the certificates like this:

    { config, pkgs, inputs, ... }:
{
  security.pki.certificateFiles = [
    ./certificates/home.pem
  ];
}

    where home.pem is a default PEM formatted certificate. It works fine to import the cert system wide this way.

    If I enter the flake.nix and run a simple curl against the remote server I get the following, which is typical for a TLS certificate error.

    curl https://webpage.home
curl: (35) OpenSSL/3.0.14: error:16000069:STORE routines::unregistered scheme

    So it seems to me that the development shell does not pick up the certificates installed on the system. I can work around that by using an impure shell, but I think that this is not how nix should be used.

    Thanks for the response. You are right, the config was at the wrong path. Unfortunately, the config itself does not work, too. After a bit of testing around this worked for me:

    I’m not ML pro and never used Python or Rust for it, but I know that our ML team uses Python extensively for it. My gut feeling is that Python stays the king in the ML field but the underlying libraries are going to progress from C++ to Rust in the future. Or at least, if Rust gets stronger math/statistics libraries. If you get something cool running with Rust and ML, I’m interested to read about it.

    Unfortunately not. But I try to work on it a few hours every week in my spare time. I think that having an easy and free crate registry is crucial for the adaption of Rust in the commercial space. Companies don’t want to share their code publicly on crates.io. My full time job is in the IT security sector. My hope is that by pushing Rust as a safe language, we can close some fundamental design flaws that languages like C/C++ introduced and make software landscape more secure.
