Release: Flox 1.3.6

Flox Team | 03 December 2024
Release: Flox 1.3.6

We’ve just released version 1.3.6 of the Flox CLI. You can get the new release here.

Building on last week’s version 1.3.5 release, v1.3.6 includes several useful improvements, including:

  • Services are now supported for in-place activations, e.g., eval "$(flox activate –start-services)"
  • Installing Nix store paths into Flox environments is now supported. This can be done either imperatively, by running flox install <store path>, or declaratively, by editing the manifest.toml file:
[install]
foo.store-path = <store path>
foo.systems = [<system>]       // optional
  • You can set the BROWSER=<your browser> variable to define which browser is used by flox auth login
