There's a typo in the table of supported versions: two of the 21.11 rows should say `nixpkgs-2111` rather than `nixpkgs-2105`. This threw me off for a bit earlier because I skimmed the table and thought 21.11 wasn't supported yet.
`nix.binaryCachePublicKeys` and `nix.binaryCaches` are now deprecated in NixOS: the current names for these settings are `nix.settings.trusted-public-keys` and `nix.settings.substituters`, respectively
The idea is to keep 8.10.4 in CI while 8.10.5 is still neither in
- a (non-nightly) Stackage LTS resolver
- upstream Nixpkgs-unstable
Hopefully it isn't long before 8.10.5 is more standard and we can remove
8.10.4 from the IOHK build.
This commit also updates documentation (which seems to have fallen out
of date), with some changes and additions to hopefully make things
easier on first-time readers.
The `hix` tools are wrappers for the various `nix` tools that
use `haskell.nix` without the need to add any `.nix` files.
This is useful for:
* A quick way to try out haskell.nix for new users.
* Using haskell.nix to work on projects that do not have
`.nix` files.
* Testing to see if `haskell.nix` can build a project.
* Making `flake` and `non flake` configurations to check `haskell.nix`
treats them the same.
The configuration arguments for `Hix` can be (from highest precedence to lowest):
* Passed on the command line with `--arg` (or `--argstr` for string args).
* Placed in `nix/hix.nix` file in the project dir.
* Placed in `~/.config/hix/hix.conf`
Boilerplate `default.nix`, `shell.nix` and `flake.nix` files can be added to a
a project with a `nix/hix.nix` file to make it work with the standard `Nix`
tools.
When copy-pasting the modified lines to the `default.nix` file, it will produce the following error:
`error: cannot coerce a set to a string, at [...]/default.nix`
Making the changes makes it work. Actually, the lines above (untouched in this PR) `fetchTarball "[...]/master.tar.gz"` were correct alread.
There are now 4 project modules used to check the arguments passed to the various project functions:
* `project-common.nix` - Arguments used by all the project functions
* `stack-project.nix` - Used by the `stackProject` and `stackProject'` functions
* `cabal-project.nix` - Used by the `cabalProject` and `cabalProject'` functions
* `project.nix` - Just the `projectFileName` argument that is used by `project` and `project'` functions to determine whether to call `stackProject` or `cabalProject` function.
This also includes the `rawProject.args` that was mistakenly left out of #1141 causing #1142 and improvements for the docs for the use of the `shell` argument in `flake.nix` files.
* doc/tutorial: Fix up materialization tutorial
Capitalize Nix everywhere, use consistent formatting of lists and fix
some typos.
* doc/tutorial: Update materialization examples
Update the practical examples of how to materialize a haskell.nix
project. The examples had aged to the point where they could no longer
be followed.
This PR adds a `flake` function to haskell.nix projects. It can
be used to transform the outputs of project into a flattened structure
that can be used to make a `flake.nix` file for your project.
Because the nix code and commands used are different a lot of stuff in
the getting-started.md will not work with a `flake.nix`. So instead
of trying to add a flake section to that guide this PR adds a new
version for Nix Flake users.
Fixes:
Warning: `stdenv.lib` is deprecated and will be removed in the next release. Please use `pkgs.lib` instead. For more information see https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/108938
* Update getting started for NixOS users
Based on the file that writes nix.conf, and visual inspection, these settings update the nix.conf on NixOS as specified.
* Better tutorial structure
responding to feedback
After investigating adding a project argument to override the
mapping of libs to packages we realised we could fix the X11
package by updating `modules/configuration-nix.nix`.
We also updated `system-nixpkgs-map.nix` to allow multiple
packages to be mapped for a single library (turned out not
to be necessary for X11).

This change adds a `projectCross` attribute to the return value of
the project functions. It is similar to `pkgs.pkgsCross` and makes
it easier to build cross compiled versions of project (or get
a cross compile with `p.projectCross.${platform}.shellFor`).
* Drop 19.09 support
This is a year old. NixOS doesn't even support the last stable release,
let alone the one before that.
Also cuts our CI size by a third, which is always nice.
* Remove 19.09 compatibility pieces
It turns out the `otherShells` arg we added to `shellFor` is very
similar to the `inputsFrom` argument of `mkShell`. We can use
`inputsFrom` instead having `otherShells` by replacing the use of
`mkDerivation` with `mkShell` in `shellFor`.
Allow for hoogle to be materialized in `shellFor` by using `tools.hoogle` when passed in.
