# 41-non-flake-inputs This example shows a `flake = false` input that exposes raw files instead of flake outputs. It includes: - one local input in `release-data/` without its own `flake.nix`, - one package that reads JSON from that input during evaluation, and - a check that proves the raw source and derived values match. Useful commands: ```bash nix flake metadata nix build ./result/bin/show-raw-release nix flake check ```
