devenv Options
These options are provided by the shared ScottyLabs devenv module. Import it in your devenv.nix:
imports = [ inputs.scottylabs.devenvModules.default ];
scottylabs
scottylabs.enable
Enable the shared ScottyLabs development configuration. Required for all other scottylabs.* options to take effect. Also installs always-on hooks: two that refresh and stage flake.lock (nix flake update) and devenv.lock (devenv update) on every commit, and one that rejects commits carrying AI tool co-author trailers.
Type: bool, default: false
scottylabs.project.name
Project name. Used for database naming, log filtering, and secrets path resolution.
Type: str, required when scottylabs.enable = true
scottylabs.conventionalCommits.enable
Enforce Conventional Commits on git commit via the commitizen git hook. Commit messages that do not match the conventional format are rejected at commit time.
Type: bool, default: true
scottylabs.rust
scottylabs.rust.enable
Enable the Rust development toolchain. Configures nightly Rust with cranelift (fast debug-mode codegen), clippy, rustfmt, wild/lld linker, and sccache backed by the org’s S3 cache. Sets CARGO_TARGET_DIR to .devenv/state/target. Clippy and cargo test run on every commit.
Type: bool, default: false
scottylabs.rust.cranelift.excludePackages
Crate names forced to the LLVM backend instead of cranelift. Some crates use features that cranelift does not support (FFI symbol emission, linker sections).
Type: listOf str, default: [ "aws-lc-sys" "aws-lc-rs" "rustls" ]
scottylabs.rust.nativeBuildInputs
Extra packages for crates that link C libraries (e.g. [ pkgs.pkg-config pkgs.openssl ]). Prefer rustls over native-tls for TLS (e.g. reqwest = { default-features = false, features = ["rustls-tls"] }) to avoid needing OpenSSL.
Type: listOf package, default: [ ]
scottylabs.deno
scottylabs.deno.enable
Enable the Deno/JavaScript development toolchain. Adds Deno, oxlint (with --deny all), oxfmt, and tsgolint on PATH for oxlint --type-aware. Runs oxlint, deno check, and deno test on every commit.
Type: bool, default: false
scottylabs.deno.react.enable
Add the react and jsx-a11y plugins to oxlint.
Type: bool, default: false
scottylabs.deno.svelte.enable
Add the svelte-check pre-commit hook.
Type: bool, default: false
scottylabs.python
scottylabs.python.enable
Enable the Python development toolchain. Manages a virtual environment with uv (running uv sync on shell entry once a pyproject.toml exists), adds ruff (lint pre-commit hook, formatting via treefmt’s ruff-format) and ty (type-check pre-commit hook) on PATH.
Type: bool, default: false
scottylabs.postgres
scottylabs.postgres.enable
Enable a local PostgreSQL 18 instance with Unix socket access. Creates an initial database named after scottylabs.project.name and exports DATABASE_URL into the shell environment.
Type: bool, default: false
scottylabs.postgres.extensions
PostgreSQL extensions as a function of the extensions set.
Type: function, default: e: [ e.pg_uuidv7 ]
scottylabs.sqlite
scottylabs.sqlite.enable
Enable SQLite for local development. Adds the sqlite package and exports DATABASE_PATH pointing to a database file in the devenv state directory.
Type: bool, default: false
scottylabs.valkey
scottylabs.valkey.enable
Enable a local Valkey instance for development. Layers services.redis.package = pkgs.valkey under the hood, so the upstream services.redis devenv module drives the process while the binary is the wire-compatible Valkey fork. Adds pkgs.valkey to the shell so valkey-cli is on the path.
Type: bool, default: false
scottylabs.garage
scottylabs.garage.enable
Enable a local Garage S3 instance for development. Creates a bucket named after scottylabs.project.name and exports S3_ENDPOINT, S3_REGION, S3_ACCESS_KEY, S3_SECRET_KEY, and S3_BUCKET into the shell environment.
Type: bool, default: false
scottylabs.garage.accessKey
S3 access key for the project bucket.
Type: str, default: scottylabs.project.name
scottylabs.garage.secretKey
S3 secret key for the project bucket.
Type: str, default: "${scottylabs.project.name}admin"
scottylabs.secrets
When scottylabs.enable = true, the openbao (bao) and secretspec CLIs are added to the shell, BAO_ADDR is set for OpenBao authentication, and every secret secretspec resolves is exported into the shell environment. Resolution is enabled per project through the secretspec block in devenv.yaml (see Secrets).
scottylabs.ricochet
scottylabs.ricochet.enable
Run a local OAuth relay on 127.0.0.1:8090 for development, the loopback callback the dev Keycloak client is registered against. Enable it alongside oidc_client to complete an OAuth flow locally the way production does: the IdP redirects to the relay, which forwards the authorization code on to your service’s own callback.
Type: bool, default: false
scottylabs.ricochet.appUrl
Public URL the service is reached at in local development, exported as APP_URL so it can build OAuth redirect targets and absolute links. Required when scottylabs.ricochet.enable is set. This is the development value only; deployed environments receive APP_URL from kennel, derived from the deployment domain (see Deploying a Project), so it is never declared in secretspec.toml.
Type: str
scottylabs.kennel
scottylabs.kennel.services
Backend services deployed by kennel. Each key must match a devenv process name. Kennel builds the corresponding flake package and deploys it as a systemd transient unit.
Type: attrsOf submodule
Each service accepts:
customDomain(nullOr str, default:null) – custom domain for this service
scottylabs.kennel.sites
Static sites deployed by kennel. Each key names a site. Kennel builds the corresponding flake package and serves it via Caddy’s file server.
Type: attrsOf submodule
Each site accepts:
spa(bool, default:false) – serve index.html for all routescustomDomain(nullOr str, default:null) – custom domain for this site
scottylabs.kennel.previewDeployments
Deploy a preview environment for each open pull request. Disable for singleton services such as bots, where a preview would run a second instance alongside production. When disabled, pull request commits still build and report kennel/build, but kennel does not deploy the preview.
Type: bool, default: true
scottylabs.kennel.config
Read-only. The generated kennel.json derivation that the kennel builder evaluates at build time. You do not set this directly.
Type: package
scottylabs.claude
scottylabs.claude.enable
Enable Claude Code integration. Generates the .mcp.json configuration with the devenv MCP server.
Type: bool, default: true
