<p>As you can see, nix very kindly provides you with convenient options for the most essential tasks: mounting volumes, exposing ports, passing environment variables etc. But what about some more niche configurations that aren&rsquo;t exposed in <a href="https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/nixos/modules/virtualisation/oci-containers.nix">oci-containers.nix</a>. As far as I can tell, your best bet in these scenarios is <code>virtualisation.oci-containers.containers.&lt;name&gt;.extraOptions</code>; this lets you pass a list of command line arguments to your docker run command. For example, I had this in my config for a vpn container.</p>
