# Cachix usage
URL: https://pub-solar.cachix.org
Requirements:
- [Install cachix](https://docs.cachix.org/installation)
- Optional: To push to the cache, you need to set `CACHIX_AUTH_TOKEN` in your environment
- Add our binary cache [to your nix config](https://docs.cachix.org/faq#cachix-use-effects). To add the pub-solar cache, run:
```
cachix use pub-solar
```
Example to build and push a custom package of a host in this flake (e.g. after creating an overlay):
```
nix build --json -f . '.#nixosConfigurations.nachtigall.pkgs.keycloak^*' \
| jq -r '.[].outputs | to_entries[].value' \
| cachix push pub-solar
```
Example to build and push a package in the `nixpkgs` repo:
```
cd nixpkgs
nix build --json -f . 'pkgs.lix^*' \
| jq -r '.[].outputs | to_entries[].value' \
| cachix push pub-solar
```
Checking if a package has been correctly pushed to the cache:
```
nix build --json '/nix/store/f76xi83z4xk9sn6pbh38rh97yvqhb5m0-noto-fonts-color-emoji-png-2.042.drv^*' | jq -r '.[].outputs | to_entries[].value' | cachix push pub-solar
