We could use some Nix help to package Alby Hub as a Nix Flake

https://github.com/getAlby/hub/issues/519

anyone out there? it should be pretty simple I expect as Alby Hub is a single executable with no other runtime dependencies.

Been meaning to do this for myself -- just need to figure out the UI + bindings, but i got a good start on it. keep u posted.

what UI or bindings do you mean?

and there are two options: the http version or the desktop version. I guess starting with the web http version is the easiest first step?

Theres breez-sdk, glalby, and ldk-node binaries you copy from their respective repos when you build, from what i see. Or are they optional?

at this point they are not optional as those are options within the app.

let me know where I can help.

Are nix flakes always building from source or is downloading the executable ok?

"flakes" surely that is not a proper label

i come from a background of ubuntu and arch, and i don't see the point of nix when there is aur

wanna help with a AUR package?

Nix might be a bit more universal and got quite some adoption in parts.

yeah, i haven't had the time to hax on arch lately... the most usual reason i go to arch is hardware support

Either one, source is better
