# update-flake-lock
This is a GitHub Action that will update your flake.lock file whenever it is run.
> NOTE: We hardcode the `install_url` to a relatively recent `nixUnstable` (`nix-2.5pre20211015_130284b` currently). If you need a newer version that includes a new feature or important bug fix, feel free to file an issue or send a PR bumping the `install_url` inside the [`action.yml`](action.yml)!
## Example
An example GitHub Action workflow using this action would look like the following:
```yaml
name: update-flake-lock
on:
workflow_dispatch:
jobs:
lockfile:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- name: Checkout repository
uses: actions/checkout@v2
- name: Update flake.lock
uses: DeterminateSystems/update-flake-lock@main
```
To have this workflow run on a recurring basis, see the [GitHub Actions documentation on the `schedule` key](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/learn-github-actions/events-that-trigger-workflows#schedule).
