# claude-cli

|
|
Custom Nix package for Claude Code CLI.
|
|
|
|
## Why This Package Exists
|
|
|
|
The official `claude-code` package in nixpkgs tries to fetch from npm registry, which is blocked by Block's corporate security (Cloudflare Teams dependency confusion protection). This custom package fetches directly from Anthropic's Google Cloud Storage distribution, bypassing the npm registry entirely.

## Updating to a New Version
|
|
|
|
When a new version of Claude Code is released, follow these steps:
|
|
|
|
### 1. Find the Latest Version and Hashes
|
|
|
|
Check the Homebrew cask formula for the latest version info:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
curl -s "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/homebrew-cask/HEAD/Casks/c/claude-code.rb" | head -50
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This will show:
|
|
- The latest `version` number
|
|
- SHA256 hashes for all platforms (`arm64`, `x86_64`, `x86_64_linux`, `arm64_linux`)
|
|
|
|
### 2. Update default.nix
|
|
|
|
Edit `default.nix` and update:
|
|
|
|
1. The `version` variable (line 9):
|
|
```nix
|
|
version = "2.0.51"; # Update this
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
2. All four platform sha256 hashes in the `srcs` attribute set (lines 11-27):
|
|
```nix
|
|
aarch64-darwin = {
|
|
sha256 = "..."; # Update from Homebrew cask "arm:" value
|
|
};
|
|
x86_64-darwin = {
|
|
sha256 = "..."; # Update from Homebrew cask "x86_64:" value
|
|
};
|
|
x86_64-linux = {
|
|
sha256 = "..."; # Update from Homebrew cask "x86_64_linux:" value
|
|
};
|
|
aarch64-linux = {
|
|
sha256 = "..."; # Update from Homebrew cask "arm64_linux:" value
|
|
};
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 3. Test the Build
|
|
|
|
Before committing, test that the package builds successfully:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
NIXPKGS_ALLOW_UNFREE=1 nix-build -E 'with import <nixpkgs> { config.allowUnfree = true; }; callPackage ./packages/claude-cli {}'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Verify the version:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
./result/bin/claude --version
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Clean up the test build:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
rm result
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 4. Deploy
|
|
|
|
Commit your changes and rebuild:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git add packages/claude-cli/
|
|
git commit -m "claude-cli: Update to version X.Y.Z"
|
|
darwin-rebuild switch --flake .#blkfv4yf49kt7
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Alternative: Automated Hash Fetching
|
|
|
|
If you prefer to fetch hashes automatically, you can use `nix-prefetch-url`:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# For macOS ARM64 (your current platform)
|
|
nix-prefetch-url "https://storage.googleapis.com/claude-code-dist-86c565f3-f756-42ad-8dfa-d59b1c096819/claude-code-releases/VERSION/darwin-arm64/claude"
|
|
|
|
# For other platforms, replace VERSION and adjust the platform string:
|
|
# darwin-x64, linux-x64, linux-arm64
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This will download the file and output the SHA256 hash.
