I don't get what's bad about nix, you can use import (but you know that).
Nix should suppport: (I never tested it):
let config = import
"${derivation_reading_config_file_creating_nix_file}/the_generated_nix_file.nix":
That's closest and works right now.
Well of course you can just write ruby preprocessors turning your
templates into nix files, too.
Or patching nix are options.
But honestly I don't understand your use case.
