According to the Unicode Standard, you should use U+2019 RIGHT SINGLE QUOTATION MARK for apostrophes [1]. Before this change, some of the text in this repo would use U+2018 LEFT SINGLE QUOTATION MARKs instead. [1]: https://www.unicode.org/versions/Unicode15.0.0/ch06.pdf#G12411

# Haskell {#haskell}
|
||
|
||
The Haskell infrastructure in Nixpkgs has two main purposes: The primary purpose
|
||
is to provide a Haskell compiler and build tools as well as infrastructure for
|
||
packaging Haskell-based packages.
|
||
|
||
The secondary purpose is to provide support for Haskell development environments
|
||
including prebuilt Haskell libraries. However, in this area sacrifices have been
|
||
made due to self-imposed restrictions in Nixpkgs, to lessen the maintenance
|
||
effort and to improve performance. (More details in the subsection
|
||
[Limitations.](#haskell-limitations))
|
||
|
||
## Available packages {#haskell-available-packages}
|
||
|
||
The compiler and most build tools are exposed at the top level:
|
||
|
||
* `ghc` is the default version of GHC
|
||
* Language specific tools: `cabal-install`, `stack`, `hpack`, …
|
||
|
||
Many “normal” user facing packages written in Haskell, like `niv` or `cachix`,
|
||
are also exposed at the top level, and there is nothing Haskell specific to
|
||
installing and using them.
|
||
|
||
All of these packages are originally defined in the `haskellPackages` package
|
||
set and are re-exposed with a reduced dependency closure for convenience.
|
||
(see `justStaticExecutables` below)
|
||
|
||
The `haskellPackages` set includes at least one version of every package from
|
||
Hackage as well as some manually injected packages. This amounts to a lot of
|
||
packages, so it is hidden from `nix-env -qa` by default for performance reasons.
|
||
You can still list all packages in the set like this:
|
||
|
||
```console
|
||
$ nix-env -f '<nixpkgs>' -qaP -A haskellPackages
|
||
haskellPackages.a50 a50-0.5
|
||
haskellPackages.AAI AAI-0.2.0.1
|
||
haskellPackages.aasam aasam-0.2.0.0
|
||
haskellPackages.abacate abacate-0.0.0.0
|
||
haskellPackages.abc-puzzle abc-puzzle-0.2.1
|
||
…
|
||
```
|
||
Also, the `haskellPackages` set is included on [search.nixos.org].
|
||
|
||
The attribute names in `haskellPackages` always correspond with their name on
|
||
Hackage. Since Hackage allows names that are not valid Nix without escaping,
|
||
you need to take care when handling attribute names like `3dmodels`.
|
||
|
||
For packages that are part of [Stackage], we use the version prescribed by a
|
||
Stackage solver (usually the current LTS one) as the default version. For all
|
||
other packages we use the latest version from Hackage. See
|
||
[below](#haskell-available-versions) to learn which versions are provided
|
||
exactly.
|
||
|
||
Roughly half of the 16K packages contained in `haskellPackages` don't actually
|
||
build and are marked as broken semi-automatically. Most of those packages are
|
||
deprecated or unmaintained, but sometimes packages that should build, do not
|
||
build. Very often fixing them is not a lot of work.
|
||
|
||
<!--
|
||
TODO(@sternenseemann):
|
||
How you can help with that is
|
||
described in [Fixing a broken package](#haskell-fixing-a-broken-package).
|
||
-->
|
||
|
||
`haskellPackages` is built with our default compiler, but we also provide other
|
||
releases of GHC and package sets built with them. You can list all available
|
||
compilers like this:
|
||
|
||
```console
|
||
$ nix-env -f '<nixpkgs>' -qaP -A haskell.compiler

|
||
haskell.compiler.ghcjs ghcjs-8.10.7
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Each of those compiler versions has a corresponding attribute set built using
|
||
it. However, the non-standard package sets are not tested regularly and, as a
|
||
result, contain fewer working packages. The corresponding package set for GHC
|
||
9.4.4 is `haskell.packages.ghc944`. In fact `haskellPackages` is just an alias
|
||
for `haskell.packages.ghc924`:
|
||
|
||
```console
|
||
$ nix-env -f '<nixpkgs>' -qaP -A haskell.packages.ghc924
|
||
haskell.packages.ghc924.a50 a50-0.5
|
||
haskell.packages.ghc924.AAI AAI-0.2.0.1
|
||
haskell.packages.ghc924.aasam aasam-0.2.0.0
|
||
haskell.packages.ghc924.abacate abacate-0.0.0.0
|
||
haskell.packages.ghc924.abc-puzzle abc-puzzle-0.2.1
|
||
…
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Every package set also re-exposes the GHC used to build its packages as `haskell.packages.*.ghc`.
|
||
|
||
### Available package versions {#haskell-available-versions}
|
||
|
||
We aim for a “blessed” package set which only contains one version of each
|
||
package, like Stackage (and based on it) but with more packages. Normally in
|
||
nixpkgs the number of building Haskell packages is roughly two to three times
|
||
the size of Stackage. For choosing the version to use for a certain package we
|
||
use the following rules:
|
||
|
||
1. By default, for every package `haskellPackages.foo` is the newest version
|
||
found on Hackage (at the time of the last update of our package set).
|
||
2. If the Stackage snapshot that we use (usually the newest LTS snapshot)
|
||
contains a package, we use the Stackage version as default version for that
|
||
package.
|
||
3. For some packages, which are not on Stackage, we have manual overrides to
|
||
set the default version to a version older than the newest on Hackage. We do
|
||
this to get them or their reverse dependencies to compile in our package set.
|
||
4. For all packages, for which the newest Hackage version is not the default
|
||
version, there will also be a `haskellPackages.foo_x_y_z` package with the
|
||
newest version.
|
||
5. For some packages, we also manually add other `haskellPackages.foo_x_y_z`
|
||
versions, if they are required for a certain build.
|
||
|
||
Relying on `haskellPackages.foo_x_y_z` attributes in derivations outside
|
||
nixpkgs is discouraged because they may change or disappear with every package
|
||
set update.
|
||
<!-- TODO(@maralorn) We should add a link to callHackage, etc. once we added
|
||
them to the docs. -->
|
||
|
||
All `haskell.packages.*` package sets use the same package descriptions and the same sets
|
||
of versions by default. There are however GHC version specific override `.nix`
|
||
files to loosen this a bit.
|
||
|
||
### Dependency resolution
|
||
|
||
Normally when you build Haskell packages with `cabal-install`, `cabal-install`
|
||
does dependency resolution. It will look at all Haskell package versions known
|
||
on Hackage and tries to pick for every (transitive) dependency of your build
|
||
exactly one version. Those versions need to satisfy all the version constraints
|
||
given in the `.cabal` file of your package and all its dependencies.
|
||
|
||
The [Haskell builder in nixpkgs](#haskell-mkderivation) does no such thing.
|
||
It will simply take as input packages with names off the desired dependencies
|
||
and just check whether they fulfill the version bounds and (by default, see
|
||
`jailbreak`) fail if they don’t.
|
||
|
||
The package resolution is done by the `haskellPackages.callPackage` function
|
||
which will, e.g., use `haskellPackages.aeson` for a package input of name
|
||
`aeson`.
|
||
While this is the default behavior, it is possible to override the dependencies
|
||
for a specific package, see
|
||
[`override` and `overrideScope`](#haskell-overriding-haskell-packages).
|
||
|
||
### Limitations {#haskell-limitations}
|
||
|
||
Our main objective with `haskellPackages` is to package Haskell software in
|
||
nixpkgs. This entails some limitations, partially due to self-imposed
|
||
restrictions of nixpkgs, partially in the name of maintainability:
|
||
|
||
* Only the packages built with the default compiler see extensive testing of the
|
||
whole package set. For other GHC versions only a few essential packages are
|
||
tested and cached.
|
||
* As described above we only build one version of most packages.
|
||
|
||
The experience using an older or newer packaged compiler or using different
|
||
versions may be worse, because builds will not be cached on `cache.nixos.org`
|
||
or may fail.
|
||
|
||
Thus, to get the best experience, make sure that your project can be compiled
|
||
using the default compiler of nixpkgs and recent versions of its dependencies.
|
||
|
||
A result of this setup is, that getting a valid build plan for a given
|
||
package can sometimes be quite painful, and in fact this is where most of the
|
||
maintenance work for `haskellPackages` is required. Besides that, it is not
|
||
possible to get the dependencies of a legacy project from nixpkgs or to use a
|
||
specific stack solver for compiling a project.
|
||
|
||
Even though we couldn’t use them directly in nixpkgs, it would be desirable
|
||
to have tooling to generate working Nix package sets from build plans generated
|
||
by `cabal-install` or a specific Stackage snapshot via import-from-derivation.
|
||
Sadly we currently don’t have tooling for this. For this you might be
|
||
interested in the alternative [haskell.nix] framework, which, be warned, is
|
||
completely incompatible with packages from `haskellPackages`.
|
||
|
||
<!-- TODO(@maralorn) Link to package set generation docs in the contributers guide below. -->
|
||
|
||
## `haskellPackages.mkDerivation` {#haskell-mkderivation}
|
||
|
||
Every haskell package set has its own haskell-aware `mkDerivation` which is used
|
||
to build its packages. Generally you won't have to interact with this builder
|
||
since [cabal2nix][cabal2nix] can generate packages
|
||
using it for an arbitrary cabal package definition. Still it is useful to know
|
||
the parameters it takes when you need to
|
||
[override](#haskell-overriding-haskell-packages) a generated Nix expression.
|
||
|
||
`haskellPackages.mkDerivation` is a wrapper around `stdenv.mkDerivation` which
|
||
re-defines the default phases to be haskell aware and handles dependency
|
||
specification, test suites, benchmarks etc. by compiling and invoking the
|
||
package's `Setup.hs`. It does *not* use or invoke the `cabal-install` binary,
|
||
but uses the underlying `Cabal` library instead.

|
||
If unset, all available targets are built and installed.
|
||
|
||
### Specifying dependencies {#haskell-derivation-deps}
|
||
|
||
Since `haskellPackages.mkDerivation` is intended to be generated from cabal
|
||
files, it reflects cabal's way of specifying dependencies. For one, dependencies
|
||
are grouped by what part of the package they belong to. This helps to reduce the
|
||
dependency closure of a derivation, for example benchmark dependencies are not
|
||
included if `doBenchmark == false`.
|
||
|
||
`setup*Depends`
|
||
: dependencies necessary to compile `Setup.hs`
|
||
|
||
`library*Depends`
|
||
: dependencies of a library contained in the package
|
||
|
||
`executable*Depends`
|
||
: dependencies of an executable contained in the package
|
||
|
||
`test*Depends`
|
||
: dependencies of a test suite contained in the package
|
||
|
||
`benchmark*Depends`
|
||
: dependencies of a benchmark contained in the package
|
||
|
||
The other categorization relates to the way the package depends on the dependency:
|
||
|
||
`*ToolDepends`
|
||
: Tools we need to run as part of the build process.
|
||
They are added to the derivation's `nativeBuildInputs`.
|
||
|
||
`*HaskellDepends`
|
||
: Haskell libraries the package depends on.
|
||
They are added to `propagatedBuildInputs`.
|
||
|
||
`*SystemDepends`
|
||
: Non-Haskell libraries the package depends on.
|
||
They are added to `buildInputs`
|
||
|
||
`*PkgconfigDepends`
|
||
: `*SystemDepends` which are discovered using `pkg-config`.
|
||
They are added to `buildInputs` and it is additionally
|
||
ensured that `pkg-config` is available at build time.
|
||
|
||
`*FrameworkDepends`
|
||
: Apple SDK Framework which the package depends on when compiling it on Darwin.
|
||
|
||
Using these two distinctions, you should be able to categorize most of the dependency
|
||
specifications that are available:
|
||
`benchmarkFrameworkDepends`,
|
||
`benchmarkHaskellDepends`,
|
||
`benchmarkPkgconfigDepends`,
|
||
`benchmarkSystemDepends`,
|
||
`benchmarkToolDepends`,
|
||
`executableFrameworkDepends`,
|
||
`executableHaskellDepends`,
|
||
`executablePkgconfigDepends`,
|
||
`executableSystemDepends`,
|
||
`executableToolDepends`,
|
||
`libraryFrameworkDepends`,
|
||
`libraryHaskellDepends`,
|
||
`libraryPkgconfigDepends`,
|
||
`librarySystemDepends`,
|
||
`libraryToolDepends`,
|
||
`setupHaskellDepends`,
|
||
`testFrameworkDepends`,
|
||
`testHaskellDepends`,
|
||
`testPkgconfigDepends`,
|
||
`testSystemDepends` and
|
||
`testToolDepends`.
|
||
|
||
That only leaves the following extra ways for specifying dependencies:
|
||
|
||
`buildDepends`
|
||
: Allows specifying Haskell dependencies which are added to `propagatedBuildInputs` unconditionally.
|
||
|
||
`buildTools`
|
||
: Like `*ToolDepends`, but are added to `nativeBuildInputs` unconditionally.
|
||
|
||
`extraLibraries`
|
||
: Like `*SystemDepends`, but are added to `buildInputs` unconditionally.
|
||
|
||
`pkg-configDepends`
|
||
: Like `*PkgconfigDepends`, but are added to `buildInputs` unconditionally.
|
||
|
||
`testDepends`
|
||
: Deprecated, use either `testHaskellDepends` or `testSystemDepends`.
|
||
|
||
`benchmarkDepends`
|
||
: Deprecated, use either `benchmarkHaskellDepends` or `benchmarkSystemDepends`.
|
||
|
||
The dependency specification methods in this list which are unconditional
|
||
are especially useful when writing [overrides](#haskell-overriding-haskell-packages)
|
||
when you want to make sure that they are definitely included. However, it is
|
||
recommended to use the more accurate ones listed above when possible.
|
||
|
||
### Meta attributes
|
||
|
||
`haskellPackages.mkDerivation` accepts the following attributes as direct
|
||
arguments which are transparently set in `meta` of the resulting derivation. See
|
||
the [Meta-attributes section](#chap-meta) for their documentation.
|
||
|
||
* These attributes are populated with a default value if omitted:
|
||
* `homepage`: defaults to the Hackage page for `pname`.
|
||
* `platforms`: defaults to `lib.platforms.all` (since GHC can cross-compile)
|
||
* These attributes are only set if given:
|
||
* `description`
|
||
* `license`
|
||
* `changelog`
|
||
* `maintainers`
|
||
* `broken`
|
||
* `hydraPlatforms`

||
## Development environments {#haskell-development-environments}
|
||
|
||
In addition to building and installing Haskell software, nixpkgs can also
|
||
provide development environments for Haskell projects. This has the obvious
|
||
advantage that you benefit from `cache.nixos.org` and no longer need to compile
|
||
all project dependencies yourself. While it is often very useful, this is not
|
||
the primary use case of our package set. Have a look at the section
|
||
[available package versions](#haskell-available-versions) to learn which
|
||
versions of packages we provide and the section
|
||
[limitations](#haskell-limitations), to judge whether a `haskellPackages`
|
||
based development environment for your project is feasible.
|
||
|
||
By default, every derivation built using
|
||
[`haskellPackages.mkDerivation`](#haskell-mkderivation) exposes an environment
|
||
suitable for building it interactively as the `env` attribute. For example, if
|
||
you have a local checkout of `random`, you can enter a development environment
|
||
for it like this (if the dependencies in the development and packaged version
|
||
match):
|
||
|
||
```console
|
||
$ cd ~/src/random
|
||
$ nix-shell -A haskellPackages.random.env '<nixpkgs>'
|
||
[nix-shell:~/src/random]$ ghc-pkg list
|
||
/nix/store/a8hhl54xlzfizrhcf03c1l3f6l9l8qwv-ghc-9.2.4-with-packages/lib/ghc-9.2.4/package.conf.d
|
||
Cabal-3.6.3.0
|
||
array-0.5.4.0
|
||
base-4.16.3.0
|
||
binary-0.8.9.0
|
||
…
|
||
ghc-9.2.4
|
||
…
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
As you can see, the environment contains a GHC which is set up so it finds all
|
||
dependencies of `random`. Note that this environment does not mirror
|
||
the environment used to build the package, but is intended as a convenient
|
||
tool for development and simple debugging. `env` relies on the `ghcWithPackages`
|
||
wrapper which automatically injects a pre-populated package-db into every
|
||
GHC invocation. In contrast, using `nix-shell -A haskellPackages.random` will
|
||
not result in an environment in which the dependencies are in GHCs package
|
||
database. Instead, the Haskell builder will pass in all dependencies explicitly
|
||
via configure flags.
|
||
|
||
`env` mirrors the normal derivation environment in one aspect: It does not include
|
||
familiar development tools like `cabal-install`, since we rely on plain `Setup.hs`
|
||
to build all packages. However, `cabal-install` will work as expected if in
|
||
`PATH` (e.g. when installed globally and using a `nix-shell` without `--pure`).
|
||
A declarative and pure way of adding arbitrary development tools is provided
|
||
via [`shellFor`](#haskell-shellFor).
|
||
|
||
When using `cabal-install` for dependency resolution you need to be a bit
|
||
careful to achieve build purity. `cabal-install` will find and use all
|
||
dependencies installed from the packages `env` via Nix, but it will also
|
||
consult Hackage to potentially download and compile dependencies if it can’t
|
||
find a valid build plan locally. To prevent this you can either never run
|
||
`cabal update`, remove the cabal database from your `~/.cabal` folder or run
|
||
`cabal` with `--offline`. Note though, that for some usecases `cabal2nix` needs
|
||
the local Hackage db.
|
||
|
||
Often you won't work on a package that is already part of `haskellPackages` or
|
||
Hackage, so we first need to write a Nix expression to obtain the development
|
||
environment from. Luckily, we can generate one very easily from an already
|
||
existing cabal file using `cabal2nix`:
|
||
|
||
```console
|
||
$ ls
|
||
my-project.cabal src …
|
||
$ cabal2nix ./. > my-project.nix
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
The generated Nix expression evaluates to a function ready to be
|
||
`callPackage`-ed. For now, we can add a minimal `default.nix` which does just
|
||
that:
|
||
|
||
```nix
|
||
# Retrieve nixpkgs impurely from NIX_PATH for now, you can pin it instead, of course.
|
||
{ pkgs ? import <nixpkgs> {} }:
|
||
|
||
# use the nixpkgs default haskell package set
|
||
pkgs.haskellPackages.callPackage ./my-project.nix { }
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Using `nix-build default.nix` we can now build our project, but we can also
|
||
enter a shell with all the package's dependencies available using `nix-shell
|
||
-A env default.nix`. If you have `cabal-install` installed globally, it'll work
|
||
inside the shell as expected.
|
||
|
||
### shellFor {#haskell-shellFor}
|
||
|
||
Having to install tools globally is obviously not great, especially if you want
|
||
to provide a batteries-included `shell.nix` with your project. Luckily there's a
|
||
proper tool for making development environments out of packages' build
|
||
environments: `shellFor`, a function exposed by every haskell package set. It
|
||
takes the following arguments and returns a derivation which is suitable as a
|
||
development environment inside `nix-shell`:
|
||
|
||
`packages`
|
||
: This argument is used to select the packages for which to build the
|
||
development environment. This should be a function which takes a haskell package
|
||
set and returns a list of packages. `shellFor` will pass the used package set to
|
||
this function and include all dependencies of the returned package in the build
|
||
environment. This means you can reuse Nix expressions of packages included in
|
||
nixpkgs, but also use local Nix expressions like this: `hpkgs: [
|
||
(hpkgs.callPackage ./my-project.nix { }) ]`.
|
||
|
||
`nativeBuildInputs`
|
||
: Expects a list of derivations to add as build tools to the build environment.
|
||
This is the place to add packages like `cabal-install`, `doctest` or `hlint`.
|
||
Defaults to `[]`.
|
||
|
||
`buildInputs`
|
||
: Expects a list of derivations to add as library dependencies, like `openssl`.
|
||
This is rarely necessary as the haskell package expressions usually track system
|
||
dependencies as well. Defaults to `[]`. (see also
|
||
[derivation dependencies](#haskell-derivation-deps))
|
||
|
||
`withHoogle`
|
||
: If this is true, `hoogle` will be added to `nativeBuildInputs`.
|
||
Additionally, its database will be populated with all included dependencies,
|
||
so you'll be able search through the documentation of your dependencies.
|
||
Defaults to `false`.
|
||
|
||
`genericBuilderArgsModifier`
|
||
: This argument accepts a function allowing you to modify the arguments passed
|
||
to `mkDerivation` in order to create the development environment. For example,
|
||
`args: { doCheck = false; }` would cause the environment to not include any test
|
||
dependencies. Defaults to `lib.id`.
|
||
|
||
`doBenchmark`
|
||
: This is a shortcut for enabling `doBenchmark` via `genericBuilderArgsModifier`.
|
||
Setting it to `true` will cause the development environment to include all
|
||
benchmark dependencies which would be excluded by default. Defaults to `false`.
|
||
|
||
One neat property of `shellFor` is that it allows you to work on multiple
|
||
packages using the same environment in conjunction with
|
||
[cabal.project files][cabal-project-files].
|
||
Say our example above depends on `distribution-nixpkgs` and we have a project
|
||
file set up for both, we can add the following `shell.nix` expression:
|
||
|
||
```nix
|
||
{ pkgs ? import <nixpkgs> {} }:
|
||
|
||
pkgs.haskellPackages.shellFor {
|
||
packages = hpkgs: [
|
||
# reuse the nixpkgs for this package
|
||
hpkgs.distribution-nixpkgs
|
||
# call our generated Nix expression manually
|
||
(hpkgs.callPackage ./my-project/my-project.nix { })
|
||
];
|
||
|
||
# development tools we use
|
||
nativeBuildInputs = [
|
||
pkgs.cabal-install
|
||
pkgs.haskellPackages.doctest
|
||
pkgs.cabal2nix
|
||
];
|
||
|
||
# Extra arguments are added to mkDerivation's arguments as-is.
|
||
# Since it adds all passed arguments to the shell environment,
|
||
# we can use this to set the environment variable the `Paths_`
|
||
# module of distribution-nixpkgs uses to search for bundled
|
||
# files.
|
||
# See also: https://cabal.readthedocs.io/en/latest/cabal-package.html#accessing-data-files-from-package-code
|
||
distribution_nixpkgs_datadir = toString ./distribution-nixpkgs;
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
### haskell-language-server {#haskell-language-server}
|
||
|
||
To use HLS in short: Install `pkgs.haskell-language-server` e.g. in
|
||
`nativeBuildInputs` in `shellFor` and use the `haskell-language-server-wrapper`
|
||
command to run it. See the [HLS user guide] on how to configure your text
|
||
editor to use HLS and how to test your setup.
|
||
|
||
HLS needs to be compiled with the GHC version of the project you use it
|
||
on.
|
||
|
||
``pkgs.haskell-language-server`` provides
|
||
``haskell-language-server-wrapper``, ``haskell-language-server``
|
||
and ``haskell-language-server-x.x.x``
|
||
binaries, where ``x.x.x`` is the GHC version for which it is compiled. By
|
||
default, it only includes binaries for the current GHC version, to reduce
|
||
closure size. The closure size is large, because HLS needs to be dynamically
|
||
linked to work reliably. You can override the list of supported GHC versions
|
||
with e.g.
|
||
|
||
```nix
|
||
pkgs.haskell-language-server.override { supportedGhcVersions = [ "90" "94" ]; }
|
||
```
|
||
Where all strings `version` are allowed such that
|
||
`haskell.packages.ghc${version}` is an existing package set.
|
||
|
||
When you run `haskell-language-server-wrapper` it will detect the GHC
|
||
version used by the project you are working on (by asking e.g. cabal or
|
||
stack) and pick the appropriate versioned binary from your path.
|
||
|
||
Be careful when installing HLS globally and using a pinned nixpkgs for a
|
||
Haskell project in a `nix-shell`. If the nixpkgs versions deviate to much
|
||
(e.g., use different `glibc` versions) the `haskell-language-server-?.?.?`
|
||
executable will try to detect these situations and refuse to start. It is
|
||
recommended to obtain HLS via `nix-shell` from the nixpkgs version pinned in
|
||
there instead.
|
||
|
||
The top level `pkgs.haskell-language-server` attribute is just a convenience
|
||
wrapper to make it possible to install HLS for multiple GHC versions at the
|
||
same time. If you know, that you only use one GHC version, e.g., in a project
|
||
specific `nix-shell` you can simply use
|
||
`pkgs.haskellPackages.haskell-language-server` or
|
||
`pkgs.haskell.packages.*.haskell-language-server` from the package set you use.
|
||
|
||
If you use `nix-shell` for your development environments remember to start your
|
||
editor in that environment. You may want to use something like `direnv` and/or an
|
||
editor plugin to achieve this.
|
||
|
||
## Overriding Haskell packages {#haskell-overriding-haskell-packages}
|
||
|
||
### Overriding a single package
|
||
|
||
<!-- TODO(@sternenseemann): we should document /somewhere/ that base == null etc. -->
|
||
|
||
Like many language specific subsystems in nixpkgs, the Haskell infrastructure
|
||
also has its own quirks when it comes to overriding. Overriding of the *inputs*
|
||
to a package at least follows the standard procedure. For example, imagine you
|
||
need to build `nix-tree` with a more recent version of `brick` than the default
|
||
one provided by `haskellPackages`:
|
||
|
||
```nix
|
||
haskellPackages.nix-tree.override {
|
||
brick = haskellPackages.brick_0_67;
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
<!-- TODO(@sternenseemann): This belongs in the next section
|
||
One common problem you may run into with such an override is the build failing
|
||
with “abort because of serious configure-time warning from Cabal”. When scrolling
|
||
up, you'll usually notice that Cabal noticed that more than one versions of the same
|
||
package was present in the dependency graph. This typically causes a later compilation
|
||
failure (the error message `haskellPackages.mkDerivation` produces tries to save
|
||
you the time of finding this out yourself, but if you wish to do so, you can
|
||
disable it using `allowInconsistentDependencies`). Luckily, `haskellPackages` provides
|
||
you with a tool to deal with this. `overrideScope` creates a new `haskellPackages`
|
||
instance with the override applied *globally* for this package, so the dependency
|
||
closure automatically uses a consistent version of the overridden package. E. g.
|
||
if `haskell-ci` needs a recent version of `Cabal`, but also uses other packages
|
||
that depend on that library, you may want to use:
|
||
|
||
```nix
|
||
haskellPackages.haskell-ci.overrideScope (self: super: {
|
||
Cabal = self.Cabal_3_6_2_0;
|
||
})
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
-->
|
||
|
||
The custom interface comes into play when you want to override the arguments
|
||
passed to `haskellPackages.mkDerivation`. For this, the function `overrideCabal`
|
||
from `haskell.lib.compose` is used. E.g., if you want to install a man page
|
||
that is distributed with the package, you can do something like this:
|
||
|
||
```nix
|
||
haskell.lib.compose.overrideCabal (drv: {
|
||
postInstall = ''
|
||
${drv.postInstall or ""}
|
||
install -Dm644 man/pnbackup.1 -t $out/share/man/man1
|
||
'';
|
||
}) haskellPackages.pnbackup
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
`overrideCabal` takes two arguments:
|
||
|
||
1. A function which receives all arguments passed to `haskellPackages.mkDerivation`
|
||
before and returns a set of arguments to replace (or add) with a new value.
|
||
2. The Haskell derivation to override.
|
||
|
||
The arguments are ordered so that you can easily create helper functions by making
|
||
use of currying:
|
||
|
||
```nix
|
||
let
|
||
installManPage = haskell.lib.compose.overrideCabal (drv: {
|
||
postInstall = ''
|
||
${drv.postInstall or ""}
|
||
install -Dm644 man/${drv.pname}.1 -t "$out/share/man/man1"
|
||
'';
|
||
});
|
||
in
|
||
|
||
installManPage haskellPackages.pnbackup
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
In fact, `haskell.lib.compose` already provides lots of useful helpers for common
|
||
tasks, detailed in the next section. They are also structured in such a way that
|
||
they can be combined using `lib.pipe`:
|
||
|
||
```nix
|
||
lib.pipe my-haskell-package [
|
||
# lift version bounds on dependencies
|
||
haskell.lib.compose.doJailbreak
|
||
# disable building the haddock documentation
|
||
haskell.lib.compose.dontHaddock
|
||
# pass extra package flag to Cabal's configure step
|
||
(haskell.lib.compose.enableCabalFlag "myflag")
|
||
]
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
#### `haskell.lib.compose`
|
||
|
||
The base interface for all overriding is the following function:
|
||
|
||
`overrideCabal f drv`
|
||
: Takes the arguments passed to obtain `drv` to `f` and uses the resulting
|
||
attribute set to update the argument set. Then a recomputed version of `drv`
|
||
using the new argument set is returned.
|
||
|
||
<!--
|
||
TODO(@sternenseemann): ideally we want to be more detailed here as well, but
|
||
I want to avoid the documentation having to be kept in sync in too many places.
|
||
We already document this stuff in the mkDerivation section and lib/compose.nix.
|
||
Ideally this section would be generated from the latter in the future.
|
||
-->
|
||
|
||
All other helper functions are implemented in terms of `overrideCabal` and make
|
||
common overrides shorter and more complicate ones trivial. The simple overrides
|
||
which only change a single argument are only described very briefly in the
|
||
following overview. Refer to the
|
||
[documentation of `haskellPackages.mkDerivation`](#haskell-mkderivation)
|
||
for a more detailed description of the effects of the respective arguments.
|
||
|
||
##### Packaging Helpers
|
||
|
||
`overrideSrc { src, version } drv`
|
||
: Replace the source used for building `drv` with the path or derivation given
|
||
as `src`. The `version` attribute is optional. Prefer this function over
|
||
overriding `src` via `overrideCabal`, since it also automatically takes care of
|
||
removing any Hackage revisions.
|
||
|
||
<!-- TODO(@sternenseemann): deprecated
|
||
|
||
`generateOptparseApplicativeCompletions list drv`
|
||
: Generate and install shell completion files for the installed executables whose
|
||
names are given via `list`. The executables need to be using `optparse-applicative`
|
||
for this to work.
|
||
-->
|
||
|
||
`justStaticExecutables drv`
|
||
: Only build and install the executables produced by `drv`, removing everything
|
||
that may refer to other Haskell packages' store paths (like libraries and
|
||
documentation). This dramatically reduces the closure size of the resulting
|
||
derivation. Note that the executables are only statically linked against their
|
||
Haskell dependencies, but will still link dynamically against libc, GMP and
|
||
other system library dependencies. If dependencies use their Cabal-generated
|
||
`Paths_*` module, this may not work as well if GHC's dead code elimination
|
||
is unable to remove the references to the dependency's store path that module
|
||
contains.
|
||
|
||
`enableSeparateBinOutput drv`
|
||
: Install executables produced by `drv` to a separate `bin` output. This
|
||
has a similar effect as `justStaticExecutables`, but preserves the libraries
|
||
and documentation in the `out` output alongside the `bin` output with a
|
||
much smaller closure size.
|
||
|
||
`markBroken drv`
|
||
: Sets the `broken` flag to `true` for `drv`.
|
||
|
||
`markUnbroken drv`, `unmarkBroken drv`
|
||
: Set the `broken` flag to `false` for `drv`.
|
||
|
||
`doDistribute drv`
|
||
: Updates `hydraPlatforms` so that Hydra will build `drv`. This is
|
||
sometimes necessary when working with versioned packages in
|
||
`haskellPackages` which are not built by default.
|
||
|
||
`dontDistribute drv`
|
||
: Sets `hydraPlatforms` to `[]`, causing Hydra to skip this package
|
||
altogether. Useful if it fails to evaluate cleanly and is causing
|
||
noise in the evaluation errors tab on Hydra.
|
||
|
||
##### Development Helpers
|
||
|
||
`sdistTarball drv`
|
||
: Create a source distribution tarball like those found on Hackage
|
||
instead of building the package `drv`.
|
||
|
||
`documentationTarball drv`
|
||
: Create a documentation tarball suitable for uploading to Hackage
|
||
instead of building the package `drv`.
|
||
|
||
`buildFromSdist drv`
|
||
: Uses `sdistTarball drv` as the source to compile `drv`. This helps to catch
|
||
packaging bugs when building from a local directory, e.g. when required files
|
||
are missing from `extra-source-files`.
|
||
|
||
`failOnAllWarnings drv`
|
||
: Enables all warnings GHC supports and makes it fail the build if any of them
|
||
are emitted.
|
||
|
||
<!-- TODO(@sternenseemann):
|
||
`checkUnusedPackages opts drv`
|
||
: Adds an extra check to `postBuild` which fails the build if any dependency
|
||
taken as an input is not used. The `opts` attribute set allows relaxing this
|
||
check.
|
||
-->
|
||
|
||
`enableDWARFDebugging drv`
|
||
: Compiles the package with additional debug symbols enabled, useful
|
||
for debugging with e.g. `gdb`.
|
||
|
||
`doStrip drv`
|
||
: Sets `doStrip` to `true` for `drv`.
|
||
|
||
`dontStrip drv`
|
||
: Sets `doStrip` to `false` for `drv`.
|
||
|
||
<!-- TODO(@sternenseemann): shellAware -->
|
||
|
||
##### Trivial Helpers
|
||
|
||
`doJailbreak drv`
|
||
: Sets the `jailbreak` argument to `true` for `drv`.
|
||
|
||
`dontJailbreak drv`
|
||
: Sets the `jailbreak` argument to `false` for `drv`.
|
||
|
||
`doHaddock drv`
|
||
: Sets `doHaddock` to `true` for `drv`.
|
||
|
||
`dontHaddock drv`
|
||
: Sets `doHaddock` to `false` for `drv`. Useful if the build of a package is
|
||
failing because of e.g. a syntax error in the Haddock documentation.
|
||
|
||
`doHyperlinkSource drv`
|
||
: Sets `hyperlinkSource` to `true` for `drv`.
|
||
|
||
`dontHyperlinkSource drv`
|
||
: Sets `hyperlinkSource` to `false` for `drv`.
|
||
|
||
`doCheck drv`
|
||
: Sets `doCheck` to `true` for `drv`.
|
||
|
||
`dontCheck drv`
|
||
: Sets `doCheck` to `false` for `drv`. Useful if a package has a broken,
|
||
flaky or otherwise problematic test suite breaking the build.
|
||

#### Library functions in the Haskell package sets
|
||
|
||
Some library functions depend on packages from the Haskell package sets. Thus they are
|
||
exposed from those instead of from `haskell.lib.compose` which can only access what is
|
||
passed directly to it. When using the functions below, make sure that you are obtaining them
|
||
from the same package set (`haskellPackages`, `haskell.packages.ghc944` etc.) as the packages
|
||
you are working with or – even better – from the `self`/`final` fix point of your overlay to
|
||
`haskellPackages`.
|
||
|
||
Note: Some functions like `shellFor` that are not intended for overriding per se, are omitted
|
||
in this section. <!-- TODO(@sternenseemann): note about ifd section -->
|
||
|
||
`cabalSdist { src, name ? ... }`
|
||
: Generates the Cabal sdist tarball for `src`, suitable for uploading to Hackage.
|
||
Contrary to `haskell.lib.compose.sdistTarball`, it uses `cabal-install` over `Setup.hs`,
|
||
so it is usually faster: No build dependencies need to be downloaded, and we can
|
||
skip compiling `Setup.hs`.
|
||
|
||
`buildFromCabalSdist drv`
|
||
: Build `drv`, but run its `src` attribute through `cabalSdist` first. Useful for catching
|
||
files necessary for compilation that are missing from the sdist.
|
||
|
||
`generateOptparseApplicativeCompletions list drv`
|
||
: Generate and install shell completion files for the installed executables whose
|
||
names are given via `list`. The executables need to be using `optparse-applicative`
|
||
for [this to work][optparse-applicative-completions].
|
||
Note that this feature is automatically disabled when cross-compiling, since it
|
||
requires executing the binaries in question.

### Backporting {#haskell-backporting}
|
||
|
||
Backporting changes to a stable NixOS version in general is covered
|
||
in nixpkgs' `CONTRIBUTING.md` in general. In particular refer to the
|
||
[backporting policy](https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#criteria-for-backporting-changes)
|
||
to check if the change you have in mind may be backported.
|
||
|
||
This section focuses on how to backport a package update (e.g. a
|
||
bug fix or security release). Fixing a broken package works like
|
||
it does for the unstable branches.

## F.A.Q. {#haskell-faq}
|
||
|
||
### Why is topic X not covered in this section? Why is section Y missing?
|
||
|
||
We have been working on [moving the nixpkgs Haskell documentation back into the
|
||
nixpkgs manual](https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/121403). Since this
|
||
process has not been completed yet, you may find some topics missing here
|
||
covered in the old [haskell4nix docs](https://haskell4nix.readthedocs.io/).
|
||
|
||
If you feel any important topic is not documented at all, feel free to comment
|
||
on the issue linked above.
