# Making changes to Hix
|
|
|
|
When making changes to the way Hix works it is often useful to be able to
|
|
test the changes locally before uploading them to github.
|
|
|
|
## Hix Command Wrappers
|
|
|
|
Install the hix command wrappers after making changes to a local clone of haskell.nix:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
nix-env -iA hix -f /path/to/local/haskell.nix
|
|
hix-shell
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Or override the version of haskell.nix used by the commands with the `HIX_ROOT` environment variable:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
HIX_ROOT=/path/to/local/haskell.nix hix-shell
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Flakes
|
|
|
|
For flakes use `--override-input` to point to the modified haskell.nix:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
nix develop --override-input haskellNix /path/to/local/haskell.nix
|
|
``` |
