Hi Nix-devs, I'm currently looking for a way to do a readFile with a path coming from a list of values.
In the list I defined the path as a string, relative to the current directory. When I try to use this value in a function, I keep getting the error that the path is not absolute "string ‘./keys/mancloud.amazon.iam.access_key’ doesn't represent an absolute path" Is there another way to have the readFile function accept strings as local paths? Or am I overlooking something obvious here? This is the function I'm using: serverKeys = keys: lib.genAttrs keys (name: { text = lib.removeSuffix "\n" (builtins.readFile "./keys/${name}"); } // { group = "keys"; permissions = "0640"; } ) ; And I'm calling it as follows: deployment.keys = serverKeys ([ "mancloud.amazon.iam.key_id" "mancloud.amazon.iam.access_key" "mancloud.amazon.iam.passphrase" ]); Kind regards, Erik
