Make the Nix search path declarative Nix search path lookups like <nixpkgs> are now desugared to ‘findFile nixPath <nixpkgs>’, where ‘findFile’ is a new primop. Thus you can override the search path simply by saying let nixPath = [ { prefix = "nixpkgs"; path = "/my-nixpkgs"; } ]; in ... <nixpkgs> ... In conjunction with ‘scopedImport’ (commit c273c15cb13bb86420dda1e5341a4e19517532b5), the Nix search path can be propagated across imports, e.g. let overrides = { nixPath = [ ... ] ++ builtins.nixPath; import = fn: scopedImport overrides fn; scopedImport = attrs: fn: scopedImport (overrides // attrs) fn; builtins = builtins // overrides; }; in scopedImport overrides ./nixos
