(address . guix-patches@gnu.org)
When developing a Haskell package it is often useful to have a Guix package
definition for that package, previously one would have to write that package
definition by hand, and if the .cabal file changed one would manually update
the Guix package definition.
This commit allows one to specify a custom source for their package, meaning
that one could programatically generate a Guix package definition for their
local Haskell package. If the .cabal file changes, the generated package
definition will also change accordingly. One could for instance write the
following in a guix.scm file:
(define-values (ghc-haskeme deps)
(call-with-input-file "haskeme.cabal"
(lambda (port)
(hackage->guix-package
"haskeme"
#:port port
#:source (local-file "." "haskeme-checkout"
#:recursive? #t
#:select? hg-predicate)))))
ghc-haskeme
Invoking ‘guix build -f guix.scm’ would then always build an up-to-date
version of the package.
* guix/import/hackage.scm (hackage-module->sexp): Add optional keyword
argument ‘source’
(hackage->guix-package): Likewise.
* tests/hackage.scm (eval-test-with-cabal): Likewise.
("hackage->guix-package local source"): New test.
---
Without this I would have to manually write my Guix package definition,
and manually update the ‘inputs’ field if I added a new dependency in my
.cabal file. This patch offers something similar to pkgs.callCabal2nix
(I could find any link to the docs, classic Nix) in Nixpkgs where i can
just write the following
Toggle snippet (12 lines)
let
haskellPackages = pkgs.haskell.packages.${compiler}.override {
overrides = hpNew: hpOld: {
haskeme = hpNew.callCabal2nix "haskeme" ./. { };
};
};
in
{
haskeme = haskellPackages.haskeme;
}
to get a Nix package definition of my Haskell package.
