README.md

anycubic-slicer-next-flake

Unofficial Nix flake for Anycubic Slicer Next on NixOS. Anycubic only distributes the slicer as a proprietary .deb for Ubuntu 24.04; this flake downloads the official package and makes it runnable on NixOS via an FHS sandbox (buildFHSEnv), since the binary has its resource path hard-coded to /usr/share/AnycubicSlicerNext/resources.

Usage

nix run github:roccorakete/anycubic-slicer-next-flake

Or add it as an overlay/package to your own configuration:

{
  inputs.anycubic-slicer-next.url = "github:roccorakete/anycubic-slicer-next-flake";

  # e.g. in environment.systemPackages:
  environment.systemPackages = [ inputs.anycubic-slicer-next.packages.x86_64-linux.default ];
}

License

The slicer itself is closed-source software by Anycubic (lib.licenses.unfree). This flake contains none of the slicer's code — it downloads the official .deb from Anycubic's CDN at build time.

Updating the version

./update-anycubic-slicer.sh

The script queries Anycubic's APT index, determines the version/hash of the latest .deb, and updates flake.nix accordingly.

Notes

See NOTES.md for the packaging bugs found and fixed along the way (including a closed-source vendor plugin shipping as a no-op stub) and the debugging techniques used.
