Configuration

Each Hermit environment contains a bin/hermit.hcl file that can be used to customise that Hermit environment.

Attributes

Attribute	Type	Description
env	{string:string}?	Extra environment variables.
sources	[string]?	Package manifest sources in order of preference.
manage-git	bool?	Whether Hermit should manage Git.

Per-environment Sources

Hermit supports three different manifest sources:

1. Git repositories; any cloneable URI ending with .git, eg.
   https://github.com/cashapp/hermit-packages.git. An optional #<tag> suffix can be added to checkout a specific tag.
2. Local filesystem, eg. file:///home/user/my-packages.
   This is mostly only useful for local development and testing.
3. Environment relative, eg. env:///my-packages.
   This will search for package manifests in the directory ${HERMIT_ENV}/my-packages. Useful for local overrides.
