SnyPy is a modern, fast, and easy-to-use Python web framework developed for building scalable and secure web applications. If you are new to SnyPy and want to learn how to install and set it up on NixOS latest version, then this tutorial will guide you through the necessary steps.
Before starting, make sure your NixOS system is updated and has Python installed. To update your system, run the following command in the terminal:
sudo nixos-rebuild switch
To install Python, run the following command:
sudo nix-env -i python3.9
SnyPy can be installed using pip, the package installer for Python. To install SnyPy using pip, run the following command:
pip install snypy
You can also install SnyPy via Nix. To install SnyPy using Nix, follow the steps below:
snypy.nix
:nano snypy.nix
{ pkgs ? import <nixpkgs> {} }:
pkgs.python3Packages.buildPythonPackage (pkgs.python3Packages.fetchPypi {
pname = "snypy";
version = "0.1.0";
sha256 = "sha256-*************************";
})
Replace the sha256
value with the actual sha256 of the SnyPy package.
Save the file and exit.
Build and install SnyPy:
nix-env -iA nixos.snypy -f ./snypy.nix
SnyPy is now installed on your NixOS system. You can now start building your Python web applications with ease using SnyPy.
