Sometimes I want to pass a different implementation of `mkNugetDeps`.
For example in private repos, it can be handy to use `__noChroot = true`
and bypass the deps.nix generation altogether. Or some Nuget packages
ship with ELF binaries that need to be patched, and that's best done as
soon as possible.
Currently `buildPerlPackage` prefixes the Perl version to the package's
`pname`, which results in `nix run` not being able to work for any
packages build with it out of the box. This commit corrects that and
phases out the ability to set `name` directly, as well as refactors the
code to not require `cleanedAttrs`.
- put `findlib` in `buildInputs` of `mkCoqDerivation` to make sure `coq` packages find their ocaml plugin dependencies,
- use `propagatedBuildInputs` to make sure ocaml plugin dependencies are in path,
- updated `coqPackage.heq` (broken url),
- fixed use of `DESTDIR` and `COQMF_COQLIB` in mkCoqDerivation,
- adding `COQCORELIB` environement variable to put ocaml plugin files in the right place,
- make `metaFetch` available from `coqPackages`
- use propagatedBuildInputs to make sure ocaml plugin stuff is in path
- updated coqPackage.heq (broken url)
- fixed use of `DESTDIR` and `COQMF_COQLIB` in mkCoqDerivation
- adding `COQCORELIB` environement variable to put ocaml plugin files in the right place
- make metaFetch available from `coqPackages`
There are many different versions of the `cudatoolkit` and related
cuda packages, and it can be tricky to ensure they remain compatible.
- `cudaPackages` is now a package set with `cudatoolkit`, `cudnn`, `cutensor`, `nccl`, as well as `cudatoolkit` split into smaller packages ("redist");
- expressions should now use `cudaPackages` as parameter instead of the individual cuda packages;
- `makeScope` is now used, so it is possible to use `.overrideScope'` to set e.g. a different `cudnn` version;
- `release-cuda.nix` is introduced to easily evaluate cuda packages using hydra.
The current wrapper only includes vim, gvim and the man pages
(optionally). This rewrite distinguishes two scenarios, which I expect
cover the majority of use cases:
- standalone mode, when `name != "vim"`, means the user already has a
vim in scope and only wants to add a customized version with a
different name. In this case we only include wrappers for `/bin/*vim`.
- non-standalone mode, when `name == "vim"`, means the user expects a
normal vim package that uses the specified configuration. In this case
we include everything in the original derivation, with wrappers for
all the executables that accept a vimrc.
Few things going on in this commit:
Do not print "Building subPakage $pkg" message if actually going to skip the
package. This was confusing to me when I was trying to figure out how to set
excludedPackages and seeing the "Building subpackage $pkg" messages for
packages I wanted to skip. Turns out this messages was being printed before
checking if we actually wanted to build the package and not necessarily that my
excludedPackages was wrong.
Make go-packages look a little bit more like go-modules, by adding testdata to
the default list of excluded packages.
This commit also does some setup outside the buildGoDir function so that we
avoid checking `excludedPackages` for every package and cut down the number
of grep calls by half since we always want at least one grep for the default
excludedPackages, might as well just add to the patterns being checked.
Finally, adds documentation for usage of excludedPackages and subPackages. I
had to read the implementation to figure out how to correctly use these
function arguments since there was no documentation and different uses in the
code base. So this commit documents usage of the arguments.
CONFLICT (rename/add): Rename pkgs/development/python-modules/jsonwatch/default.nix->pkgs/tools/misc/jsonwatch/default.nix in nixpkgs/master. Added pkgs/tools/misc/jsonwatch/default.nix in HEAD
I found out how to use aspell with a custom dictionary and so ran that
on `rust.section.md`.
These changes are trivial consistency in spelling and nomenclature.
This stems from a discussion [here](https://discourse.nixos.org/t/what-rust-overlay-do-you-use-and-why-advice-appreciated/15412)
I removed an entire section because I feel like that duplicated
Mozilla's original instructions on how to consume the overlay.
The goal here is to simply the "getting started with Rust" in a nix or
NixOS environment.
I will try to do some follow up work to update the code snippets and
output. nightly is on `1.57.0-nightly` :)
