=== Evaluate packages for a different platform === | |||
Sometimes you want to check whether a change to a package (such as adding a new dependency) would evaluate even on a different type of system. For example, you may want to check on `x68_64-linux` whether a package evaluates for `x68_64-darwin` or `aarch64-linux`. | |||
Use the `system` argument: | |||
<syntaxHighlight lang="console"> | |||
$ nix-instantiate --argstr system "x86_64-darwin" -A mypackage | |||
