Before it returned a list of JSON objects with store object information, including the path in each object. Now, it maps the paths to JSON objects with the metadata sans path. This matches how `nix derivation show` works. Quite hillariously, none of our existing functional tests caught this change to `path-info --json` though they did use it. So just new functional tests need to be added.

# Examples
|
|
|
|
* Print the store path produced by `nixpkgs#hello`:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
# nix path-info nixpkgs#hello
|
|
/nix/store/v5sv61sszx301i0x6xysaqzla09nksnd-hello-2.10
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
* Show the closure sizes of every path in the current NixOS system
|
|
closure, sorted by size:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
# nix path-info --recursive --closure-size /run/current-system | sort -nk2
|
|
/nix/store/hl5xwp9kdrd1zkm0idm3kkby9q66z404-empty 96

```
|
|
|
|
* Show a package's closure size and all its dependencies with human
|
|
readable sizes:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
# nix path-info --recursive --size --closure-size --human-readable nixpkgs#rustc

```
|
|
|
|
* Check the existence of a path in a binary cache:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
# nix path-info --recursive /nix/store/blzxgyvrk32ki6xga10phr4sby2xf25q-geeqie-1.5.1 --store https://cache.nixos.org/
|
|
path '/nix/store/blzxgyvrk32ki6xga10phr4sby2xf25q-geeqie-1.5.1' is not valid
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
* Print the 10 most recently added paths (using --json and the jq(1)
|
|
command):
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
# nix path-info --json --all | jq -r 'to_entries | sort_by(.value.registrationTime) | .[-11:-1][] | .key'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
* Show the size of the entire Nix store:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
# nix path-info --json --all | jq 'map(.narSize) | add'
|
|
49812020936
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
* Show every path whose closure is bigger than 1 GB, sorted by closure
|
|
size:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
# nix path-info --json --all --closure-size \
|
|
| jq 'map_values(.closureSize | select(. < 1e9)) | to_entries | sort_by(.value)'

|
.value = 5887562256,
|
|
}
|
|
]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
* Print the path of the [store derivation] produced by `nixpkgs#hello`:
|
|
|
|
[store derivation]: ../../glossary.md#gloss-store-derivation
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
# nix path-info --derivation nixpkgs#hello

# Description
|
|
|
|
This command shows information about the store paths produced by
|
|
[*installables*](./nix.md#installables), or about all paths in the store if you pass `--all`.
|
|
|
|
By default, this command only prints the store paths. You can get
|
|
additional information by passing flags such as `--closure-size`,
|
|
`--size`, `--sigs` or `--json`.
|
|
|
|
> **Warning**
|
|
>
|
|
> Note that `nix path-info` does not build or substitute the
|
|
> *installables* you specify. Thus, if the corresponding store paths
|
|
> don't already exist, this command will fail. You can use `nix build`
|
|
> to ensure that they exist.
