Clan supports integration with [flake-parts](https://flake.parts/), a framework for constructing your `flake.nix` using modules.
## Step 1: Update Your Flake Inputs
To construct your Clan using flake-parts, follow these steps:
## Update Your Flake Inputs
To begin, you'll need to add `flake-parts` as a new dependency in your flake's inputs. This is alongside the already existing dependencies, such as `clan-core` and `nixpkgs`. Here's how you can update your `flake.nix` file:
Add `flake-parts` as a dependency in your `flake.nix` file alongside existing dependencies like `clan-core` and `nixpkgs`. Here's an example:
```nix
# flake.nix
inputs = {
nixpkgs.url = "github:NixOS/nixpkgs?ref=nixos-unstable";
# New flake-parts input
# Add flake-parts
flake-parts.url = "github:hercules-ci/flake-parts";
flake-parts.inputs.nixpkgs-lib.follows = "nixpkgs";
clan-core = {
url = "https://git.clan.lol/clan/clan-core/archive/main.tar.gz";
inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs"; # Don't do this if your machines are on nixpkgs stable.
# New
inputs.flake-parts.follows = "flake-parts";
inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs"; # Avoid this if using nixpkgs stable.
inputs.flake-parts.follows = "flake-parts"; # New
};
}
};
```
## Import the Clan flake-parts Module
## Step 2: Import the Clan flake-parts Module
After updating your flake inputs, the next step is to import the Clan flake-parts module. This will make the [Clan options](/options) available within `mkFlake`.
