When will Travis-ci will support NixOS/NixOps?

Question

Currently travis supports linux (ubuntu?) and mac.

I'm currently exploring nix. I think it's a powerful way to declare the global state of your system. It's available at various level:

• nix: package
• nixos: machine
• nixops: deployment

With the current state, I could install nix the package manager on a linux vm and get all the packages I need, great!

In my ideal world, I could do the same at the machine or at the deployment level (machine[s]).

So my question is: When will travis-ci will support NixOS? When will travis-ci will support multiple machine setup (let's say with NixOps) ?

Answer 1

it would be nice to be able to share /nix/store between travis builds. but for nixpkgs we're already try to build changes using nox tool.
