Hey just stumbled about your template for rust projects. i was wondering where i would pass non rust dependencies when i want to run nix build? my project needs openssl and pkg-config.

Already tried that. Build still fails, saying it can't find pkgconfig. Here's how i defined it:

          # Rust package
          packages.default = pkgs.rustPlatform.buildRustPackage {
            inherit (cargoToml.package) name version;
            buildInputs = [
              pkgs.pkg-config
              pkgs.openssl
            ];
            src = ./.;
            cargoLock.lockFile = ./Cargo.lock;
          };

I believe you are looking for nativeBuildInputs
