Can each service be isolated in a container?

[dlight]

Ok so I didn't find anything about it, but can services-flake isolate each service using containers? (Does this even make sense?)

Either by using systemd-nspawn, docker, or by depending on some flake that manages cgroups and namespaces.

Can you elaborate on this?

I mean, could services-flake create a container for each service, and run inside its own container?

There's some projects to create and run containers using nix flakes, like extra-containers and flake-containers but they don't come with a list of predefined services like services-flake does.

No

At the moment, services-flake only exports processComposeModules to be used with https://github.com/Platonic-Systems/process-compose-flake. However, in the future we are exploring to export configuration for other backends to consume, see: #354
