_"A gleam of light, focused through a lens, captured for ever."_

```
  .~_/z\_.,
  |-`(*).-|  `manifest.toml` ---> `zeiss.nix`
  '-------'
```

Development tooling for converting Gleams `manifest.toml` with all its dependencies into a `zeiss.nix` file which can be used as an `import` in a Nix derivation.

**Note however**:

> This tool does **not** provide a way to build a Gleam application.

In order to build a Gleam application with Nix, a derivation which understands the generated `zeiss.nix` file needs to be provided.

## Usage

Add `zeiss` as a development dependency to your project

```sh
gleam add --dev zeiss
```

Generate the `.nix` representation of your `manifest.toml`

```sh
gleam run -m zeiss
```
