It’s already there: nix-env -iA nixpkgs.nodePackages.prettier.

(Although this is admittedly hard to discover with tools like nix search, since nodePackages does not have recurseIntoAttrs.)

[ethancedwards8]

Perhaps it could be added to aliases.nix?

[06kellyjac]

Maybe the odd really important node package should be aliased but putting recurseIntoAttrs on nodePackages so it shows up in nix search might be best.
Would adding it increase the evaluation time or are there any other negatives?

[AndersonTorres]

aliases.nix is for backwards-compatibility issues.

If you want to put an alias for it, open a PR modifying all-packages.nix.

I'm going to close this since it's already packaged. Please feel free to update the issue if you feel you want anything else to be done about it.

There appears to be no bin/prettier in the package, at least not for the nodejs-16_x.nodePackages on nixpkgs-unstable:

$ ls -F /nix/store/lajmk0widqbg8g7q6xhxjv9pfjmxfkjj-prettier-2.4.1
lib/

[06kellyjac]

It's in the normal nodePackages but not nodePackages_latest

λ ls $(nix path-info nixpkgs#nodePackages.prettier)/bin
 prettier

λ ls $(nix path-info nixpkgs#nodePackages_latest.prettier)/bin
lsd: /nix/store/mah61fapmawvg62jxgd3z889gy9gryf3-prettier-2.4.1/bin: No such file or directory (os error 2).
λ ls $(nix path-info nixpkgs#nodePackages_latest.prettier)
 lib

Please open a separate issue

[andersk]

That is

• Packages from nodePackages_latest don't result in executables in $PATH. #145432
