## Submitting changes
|
||||
|
||||
* Format the commits in the following way:
|
||||
|
||||
`(pkg-name | service-name): (from -> to | init at version | refactor | etc)`
|
||||
|
||||
Examples:
|
||||
|
||||
* nginx: init at 2.0.1
|
||||
* firefox: 3.0 -> 3.1.1
|
||||
* hydra service: add bazBaz option
|
||||
* nginx service: refactor config generation
|
||||
|
||||
* `meta.description` should:
|
||||
* Be capitalized
|
||||
* Not start with the package name
|
||||
* Not have a dot at the end
|
||||

By default Rebar3 wants to manage it's own dependencies. In the
|
||||
normal non-Nix, this is perfectly acceptable. In the Nix world it
|
||||
is not. To support this we have created two versions of rebar3,
|
||||
<literal>rebar3</literal> and <literal>rebar3-open</literal>. The
|
||||
<literal>rebar3</literal> version has been patched to remove the
|
||||
ability to download anything from it. If you are not running it a
|
||||
nix-shell or a nix-build then its probably not going to work for
|
||||
you. <literal>rebar3-open</literal> is the normal, un-modified
|
||||
rebar3. It should work exactly as would any other version of
|
||||
rebar3. Any Erlang package should rely on
|
||||
<literal>rebar3</literal> and thats really what you should be
|
||||
using too.

sneaky things to get it not to go out and pull packages on its

Nixpkgs distributes build instructions for all Haskell packages registered on

[Hackage](http://hackage.haskell.org/), but strangely enough normal Nix package

lookups don't seem to discover any of them, except for the default version of ghc, cabal-install, and stack:
|
||||
|
||||
$ nix-env -i alex
|

$ nix-env -qa ghc
|
||||
ghc-7.10.2
|
||||
|
||||
The Haskell package set is not registered in the top-level namespace because it
|
||||
is *huge*. If all Haskell packages were visible to these commands, then
|
||||
name-based search/install operations would be much slower than they are now. We
|
||||
avoided that by keeping all Haskell-related packages in a separate attribute
|
||||
set called `haskellPackages`, which the following command will list:
|
||||
|
||||
$ nix-env -f "<nixpkgs>" -qaP -A haskellPackages
|
||||
haskellPackages.a50 a50-0.5
|
||||
haskellPackages.abacate haskell-abacate-0.0.0.0
|
||||
haskellPackages.abcBridge haskell-abcBridge-0.12
|
||||
haskellPackages.afv afv-0.1.1
|
||||
haskellPackages.alex alex-3.1.4
|
||||
haskellPackages.Allure Allure-0.4.101.1
|
||||
haskellPackages.alms alms-0.6.7
|
||||
[... some 8000 entries omitted ...]
|
||||
|
||||
To install any of those packages into your profile, refer to them by their
|
||||
attribute path (first column):
|
||||
|
||||
$ nix-env -f "<nixpkgs>" -iA haskellPackages.Allure ...
|
||||
|
||||
The attribute path of any Haskell packages corresponds to the name of that
|
||||
particular package on Hackage: the package `cabal-install` has the attribute
|
||||
`haskellPackages.cabal-install`, and so on. (Actually, this convention causes
|
||||
trouble with packages like `3dmodels` and `4Blocks`, because these names are
|
||||
invalid identifiers in the Nix language. The issue of how to deal with these
|
||||
rare corner cases is currently unresolved.)
|
||||
|
||||
Haskell packages who's Nix name (second column) begins with a `haskell-` prefix
|
||||
are packages that provide a library whereas packages without that prefix
|
||||
provide just executables. Libraries may provide executables too, though: the
|
||||
package `haskell-pandoc`, for example, installs both a library and an
|
||||
application. You can install and use Haskell executables just like any other
|
||||
program in Nixpkgs, but using Haskell libraries for development is a bit
|
||||
trickier and we'll address that subject in great detail in section [How to
|
||||
create a development environment].
|
||||
|
||||
Attribute paths are deterministic inside of Nixpkgs, but the path necessary to
|
||||
reach Nixpkgs varies from system to system. We dodged that problem by giving
|
||||
`nix-env` an explicit `-f "<nixpkgs>"` parameter, but if you call `nix-env`
|
||||
without that flag, then chances are the invocation fails:
|
||||
|
||||
$ nix-env -iA haskellPackages.cabal-install
|
||||
error: attribute ‘haskellPackages’ in selection path
|
||||
‘haskellPackages.cabal-install’ not found
|
||||
|
||||
On NixOS, for example, Nixpkgs does *not* exist in the top-level namespace by
|
||||
default. To figure out the proper attribute path, it's easiest to query for the
|
||||
path of a well-known Nixpkgs package, i.e.:
|
||||
|
||||
$ nix-env -qaP coreutils
|
||||
nixos.coreutils coreutils-8.23
|
||||
|
||||
If your system responds like that (most NixOS installations will), then the
|
||||
attribute path to `haskellPackages` is `nixos.haskellPackages`. Thus, if you
|
||||
want to use `nix-env` without giving an explicit `-f` flag, then that's the way
|
||||
to do it:
|
||||
|
||||
$ nix-env -qaP -A nixos.haskellPackages
|
||||
$ nix-env -iA nixos.haskellPackages.cabal-install
|
||||
|
||||
Our current default compiler is GHC 7.10.x and the `haskellPackages` set
|
||||
contains packages built with that particular version. Nixpkgs contains the
|
||||
latest major release of every GHC since 6.10.4, however, and there is a whole
|
||||
family of package sets available that defines Hackage packages built with each
|
||||
of those compilers, too:
|
||||
|
||||
$ nix-env -f "<nixpkgs>" -qaP -A haskell.packages.ghc6123
|
||||
$ nix-env -f "<nixpkgs>" -qaP -A haskell.packages.ghc763
|
||||
|
||||
The name `haskellPackages` is really just a synonym for
|
||||
`haskell.packages.ghc7102`, because we prefer that package set internally and
|
||||
recommend it to our users as their default choice, but ultimately you are free
|
||||
to compile your Haskell packages with any GHC version you please. The following
|
||||
command displays the complete list of available compilers:
|
||||
|
||||
$ nix-env -f "<nixpkgs>" -qaP -A haskell.compiler
|
||||
haskell.compiler.ghc6104 ghc-6.10.4
|
||||
haskell.compiler.ghc6123 ghc-6.12.3
|
||||
haskell.compiler.ghc704 ghc-7.0.4
|
||||
haskell.compiler.ghc722 ghc-7.2.2
|
||||
haskell.compiler.ghc742 ghc-7.4.2
|
||||
haskell.compiler.ghc763 ghc-7.6.3
|
||||
haskell.compiler.ghc784 ghc-7.8.4
|
||||
haskell.compiler.ghc7102 ghc-7.10.2
|
||||
haskell.compiler.ghcHEAD ghc-7.11.20150402
|
||||
haskell.compiler.ghcNokinds ghc-nokinds-7.11.20150704
|
||||
haskell.compiler.ghcjs ghcjs-0.1.0
|
||||
haskell.compiler.jhc jhc-0.8.2
|
||||
haskell.compiler.uhc uhc-1.1.9.0
|
||||
|
||||
We have no package sets for `jhc` or `uhc` yet, unfortunately, but for every
|
||||
version of GHC listed above, there exists a package set based on that compiler.
|
||||
Also, the attributes `haskell.compiler.ghcXYC` and
|
||||
`haskell.packages.ghcXYC.ghc` are synonymous for the sake of convenience.
|
||||
|
||||
## How to create a development environment
|
||||
|
||||
### How to install a compiler
|
||||
|
||||
A simple development environment consists of a Haskell compiler and the tool
|
||||
`cabal-install`, and we saw in section [How to install Haskell packages] how
|
||||
you can install those programs into your user profile:
|
||||
|
||||
$ nix-env -f "<nixpkgs>" -iA haskellPackages.ghc haskellPackages.cabal-install
|
||||
|
||||
Instead of the default package set `haskellPackages`, you can also use the more
|
||||
precise name `haskell.compiler.ghc7102`, which has the advantage that it refers
|
||||
to the same GHC version regardless of what Nixpkgs considers "default" at any
|
||||
given time.
|
||||
|
||||
Once you've made those tools available in `$PATH`, it's possible to build
|
||||
Hackage packages the same way people without access to Nix do it all the time:
|
||||
|
||||
$ cabal get lens-4.11 && cd lens-4.11
|
||||
$ cabal install -j --dependencies-only
|
||||
$ cabal configure
|
||||
$ cabal build
|
||||
|
||||
If you enjoy working with Cabal sandboxes, then that's entirely possible too:
|
||||
just execute the command
|
||||
|
||||
$ cabal sandbox init
|
||||
|
||||
before installing the required dependencies.
|
||||
|
||||
The `nix-shell` utility makes it easy to switch to a different compiler
|
||||
version; just enter the Nix shell environment with the command
|
||||
|
||||
$ nix-shell -p haskell.compiler.ghc784
|
||||
|
||||
to bring GHC 7.8.4 into `$PATH`. Re-running `cabal configure` switches your
|
||||
build to use that compiler instead. If you're working on a project that doesn't
|
||||
depend on any additional system libraries outside of GHC, then it's sufficient
|
||||
even to run the `cabal configure` command inside of the shell:
|
||||
|
||||
$ nix-shell -p haskell.compiler.ghc784 --command "cabal configure"
|
||||
|
||||
Afterwards, all other commands like `cabal build` work just fine in any shell
|
||||
environment, because the configure phase recorded the absolute paths to all
|
||||
required tools like GHC in its build configuration inside of the `dist/`
|
||||
directory. Please note, however, that `nix-collect-garbage` can break such an
|
||||
environment because the Nix store paths created by `nix-shell` aren't "alive"
|
||||
anymore once `nix-shell` has terminated. If you find that your Haskell builds
|
||||
no longer work after garbage collection, then you'll have to re-run `cabal
|
||||
configure` inside of a new `nix-shell` environment.
|
||||
|
||||
### How to install a compiler with libraries
|
||||
|
||||
GHC expects to find all installed libraries inside of its own `lib` directory.
|
||||
This approach works fine on traditional Unix systems, but it doesn't work for
|
||||
Nix, because GHC's store path is immutable once it's built. We cannot install
|
||||
additional libraries into that location. As a consequence, our copies of GHC
|
||||
don't know any packages except their own core libraries, like `base`,
|
||||
`containers`, `Cabal`, etc.
|
||||
|
||||
We can register additional libraries to GHC, however, using a special build
|
||||
function called `ghcWithPackages`. That function expects one argument: a
|
||||
function that maps from an attribute set of Haskell packages to a list of
|
||||
packages, which determines the libraries known to that particular version of
|
||||
GHC. For example, the Nix expression `ghcWithPackages (pkgs: [pkgs.mtl])`
|
||||
generates a copy of GHC that has the `mtl` library registered in addition to
|
||||
its normal core packages:
|
||||
|
||||
$ nix-shell -p "haskellPackages.ghcWithPackages (pkgs: [pkgs.mtl])"
|
||||
|
||||
[nix-shell:~]$ ghc-pkg list mtl
|
||||
/nix/store/zy79...-ghc-7.10.2/lib/ghc-7.10.2/package.conf.d:
|
||||
mtl-2.2.1
|
||||
|
||||
This function allows users to define their own development environment by means
|
||||
of an override. After adding the following snippet to `~/.nixpkgs/config.nix`,
|
||||
|
||||
{
|
||||
packageOverrides = super: let self = super.pkgs; in
|
||||
{
|
||||
myHaskellEnv = self.haskell.packages.ghc7102.ghcWithPackages
|
||||
(haskellPackages: with haskellPackages; [
|
||||
# libraries
|
||||
arrows async cgi criterion
|
||||
# tools
|
||||
cabal-install haskintex
|
||||
]);
|
||||
};
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
it's possible to install that compiler with `nix-env -f "<nixpkgs>" -iA
|
||||
myHaskellEnv`. If you'd like to switch that development environment to a
|
||||
different version of GHC, just replace the `ghc7102` bit in the previous
|
||||
definition with the appropriate name. Of course, it's also possible to define
|
||||
any number of these development environments! (You can't install two of them
|
||||
into the same profile at the same time, though, because that would result in
|
||||
file conflicts.)
|
||||
|
||||
The generated `ghc` program is a wrapper script that re-directs the real
|
||||
GHC executable to use a new `lib` directory --- one that we specifically
|
||||
constructed to contain all those packages the user requested:
|
||||
|
||||
$ cat $(type -p ghc)
|
||||
#! /nix/store/xlxj...-bash-4.3-p33/bin/bash -e
|
||||
export NIX_GHC=/nix/store/19sm...-ghc-7.10.2/bin/ghc
|
||||
export NIX_GHCPKG=/nix/store/19sm...-ghc-7.10.2/bin/ghc-pkg
|
||||
export NIX_GHC_DOCDIR=/nix/store/19sm...-ghc-7.10.2/share/doc/ghc/html
|
||||
export NIX_GHC_LIBDIR=/nix/store/19sm...-ghc-7.10.2/lib/ghc-7.10.2
|
||||
exec /nix/store/j50p...-ghc-7.10.2/bin/ghc "-B$NIX_GHC_LIBDIR" "$@"
|
||||
|
||||
The variables `$NIX_GHC`, `$NIX_GHCPKG`, etc. point to the *new* store path
|
||||
`ghcWithPackages` constructed specifically for this environment. The last line
|
||||
of the wrapper script then executes the real `ghc`, but passes the path to the
|
||||
new `lib` directory using GHC's `-B` flag.
|
||||
|
||||
The purpose of those environment variables is to work around an impurity in the
|
||||
popular [ghc-paths](http://hackage.haskell.org/package/ghc-paths) library. That
|
||||
library promises to give its users access to GHC's installation paths. Only,
|
||||
the library can't possible know that path when it's compiled, because the path
|
||||
GHC considers its own is determined only much later, when the user configures
|
||||
it through `ghcWithPackages`. So we [patched
|
||||
ghc-paths](https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/pkgs/development/haskell-modules/patches/ghc-paths-nix.patch)
|
||||
to return the paths found in those environment variables at run-time rather
|
||||
than trying to guess them at compile-time.
|
||||
|
||||
To make sure that mechanism works properly all the time, we recommend that you
|
||||
set those variables to meaningful values in your shell environment, too, i.e.
|
||||
by adding the following code to your `~/.bashrc`:
|
||||
|
||||
if type >/dev/null 2>&1 -p ghc; then
|
||||
eval "$(egrep ^export "$(type -p ghc)")"
|
||||
fi
|
||||
|
||||
If you are certain that you'll use only one GHC environment which is located in
|
||||
your user profile, then you can use the following code, too, which has the
|
||||
advantage that it doesn't contain any paths from the Nix store, i.e. those
|
||||
settings always remain valid even if a `nix-env -u` operation updates the GHC
|
||||
environment in your profile:
|
||||
|
||||
if [ -e ~/.nix-profile/bin/ghc ]; then
|
||||
export NIX_GHC="$HOME/.nix-profile/bin/ghc"
|
||||
export NIX_GHCPKG="$HOME/.nix-profile/bin/ghc-pkg"
|
||||
export NIX_GHC_DOCDIR="$HOME/.nix-profile/share/doc/ghc/html"
|
||||
export NIX_GHC_LIBDIR="$HOME/.nix-profile/lib/ghc-$($NIX_GHC --numeric-version)"
|
||||
fi
|
||||
|
||||
### How to install a compiler with libraries, hoogle and documentation indexes
|
||||
|
||||
If you plan to use your environment for interactive programming, not just
|
||||
compiling random Haskell code, you might want to replace `ghcWithPackages` in
|
||||
all the listings above with `ghcWithHoogle`.
|
||||
|
||||
This environment generator not only produces an environment with GHC and all
|
||||
the specified libraries, but also generates a `hoogle` and `haddock` indexes
|
||||
for all the packages, and provides a wrapper script around `hoogle` binary that
|
||||
uses all those things. A precise name for this thing would be
|
||||
"`ghcWithPackagesAndHoogleAndDocumentationIndexes`", which is, regrettably, too
|
||||
long and scary.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, installing the following environment
|
||||
|
||||
{
|
||||
packageOverrides = super: let self = super.pkgs; in
|
||||
{
|
||||
myHaskellEnv = self.haskellPackages.ghcWithHoogle
|
||||
(haskellPackages: with haskellPackages; [
|
||||
# libraries
|
||||
arrows async cgi criterion
|
||||
# tools
|
||||
cabal-install haskintex
|
||||
]);
|
||||
};
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
allows one to browse module documentation index [not too dissimilar to
|
||||
this](https://downloads.haskell.org/~ghc/latest/docs/html/libraries/index.html)
|
||||
for all the specified packages and their dependencies by directing a browser of
|
||||
choice to `~/.nix-profiles/share/doc/hoogle/index.html` (or
|
||||
`/run/current-system/sw/share/doc/hoogle/index.html` in case you put it in
|
||||
`environment.systemPackages` in NixOS).
|
||||
|
||||
After you've marveled enough at that try adding the following to your
|
||||
`~/.ghc/ghci.conf`
|
||||
|
||||
:def hoogle \s -> return $ ":! hoogle search -cl --count=15 \"" ++ s ++ "\""
|
||||
:def doc \s -> return $ ":! hoogle search -cl --info \"" ++ s ++ "\""
|
||||
|
||||
and test it by typing into `ghci`:
|
||||
|
||||
:hoogle a -> a
|
||||
:doc a -> a
|
||||
|
||||
Be sure to note the links to `haddock` files in the output. With any modern and
|
||||
properly configured terminal emulator you can just click those links to
|
||||
navigate there.
|
||||
|
||||
Finally, you can run
|
||||
|
||||
hoogle server -p 8080
|
||||
|
||||
and navigate to http://localhost:8080/ for your own local
|
||||
[Hoogle](https://www.haskell.org/hoogle/). Note, however, that Firefox and
|
||||
possibly other browsers disallow navigation from `http:` to `file:` URIs for
|
||||
security reasons, which might be quite an inconvenience. See [this
|
||||
page](http://kb.mozillazine.org/Links_to_local_pages_do_not_work) for
|
||||
workarounds.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### How to create ad hoc environments for `nix-shell`
|
||||
|
||||
The easiest way to create an ad hoc development environment is to run
|
||||
`nix-shell` with the appropriate GHC environment given on the command-line:
|
||||
|
||||
nix-shell -p "haskellPackages.ghcWithPackages (pkgs: with pkgs; [mtl pandoc])"
|
||||
|
||||
For more sophisticated use-cases, however, it's more convenient to save the
|
||||
desired configuration in a file called `shell.nix` that looks like this:
|
||||
|
||||
{ nixpkgs ? import <nixpkgs> {}, compiler ? "ghc7102" }:
|
||||
let
|
||||
inherit (nixpkgs) pkgs;
|
||||
ghc = pkgs.haskell.packages.${compiler}.ghcWithPackages (ps: with ps; [
|
||||
monad-par mtl
|
||||
]);
|
||||
in
|
||||
pkgs.stdenv.mkDerivation {
|
||||
name = "my-haskell-env-0";
|
||||
buildInputs = [ ghc ];
|
||||
shellHook = "eval $(egrep ^export ${ghc}/bin/ghc)";
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
Now run `nix-shell` --- or even `nix-shell --pure` --- to enter a shell
|
||||
environment that has the appropriate compiler in `$PATH`. If you use `--pure`,
|
||||
then add all other packages that your development environment needs into the
|
||||
`buildInputs` attribute. If you'd like to switch to a different compiler
|
||||
version, then pass an appropriate `compiler` argument to the expression, i.e.
|
||||
`nix-shell --argstr compiler ghc784`.
|
||||
|
||||
If you need such an environment because you'd like to compile a Hackage package
|
||||
outside of Nix --- i.e. because you're hacking on the latest version from Git
|
||||
---, then the package set provides suitable nix-shell environments for you
|
||||
already! Every Haskell package has an `env` attribute that provides a shell
|
||||
environment suitable for compiling that particular package. If you'd like to
|
||||
hack the `lens` library, for example, then you just have to check out the
|
||||
source code and enter the appropriate environment:
|
||||
|
||||
$ cabal get lens-4.11 && cd lens-4.11
|
||||
Downloading lens-4.11...
|
||||
Unpacking to lens-4.11/
|
||||
|
||||
$ nix-shell "<nixpkgs>" -A haskellPackages.lens.env
|
||||
[nix-shell:/tmp/lens-4.11]$
|
||||
|
||||
At point, you can run `cabal configure`, `cabal build`, and all the other
|
||||
development commands. Note that you need `cabal-install` installed in your
|
||||
`$PATH` already to use it here --- the `nix-shell` environment does not provide
|
||||
it.
|
||||
|
||||
## How to create Nix builds for your own private Haskell packages
|
||||
|
||||
If your own Haskell packages have build instructions for Cabal, then you can
|
||||
convert those automatically into build instructions for Nix using the
|
||||
`cabal2nix` utility, which you can install into your profile by running
|
||||
`nix-env -i cabal2nix`.
|
||||
|
||||
### How to build a stand-alone project
|
||||
|
||||
For example, let's assume that you're working on a private project called
|
||||
`foo`. To generate a Nix build expression for it, change into the project's
|
||||
top-level directory and run the command:
|
||||
|
||||
$ cabal2nix . >foo.nix
|
||||
|
||||
Then write the following snippet into a file called `default.nix`:
|
||||
|
||||
{ nixpkgs ? import <nixpkgs> {}, compiler ? "ghc7102" }:
|
||||
nixpkgs.pkgs.haskell.packages.${compiler}.callPackage ./foo.nix { }
|
||||
|
||||
Finally, store the following code in a file called `shell.nix`:
|
||||
|
||||
{ nixpkgs ? import <nixpkgs> {}, compiler ? "ghc7102" }:
|
||||
(import ./default.nix { inherit nixpkgs compiler; }).env
|
||||
|
||||
At this point, you can run `nix-build` to have Nix compile your project and
|
||||
install it into a Nix store path. The local directory will contain a symlink
|
||||
called `result` after `nix-build` returns that points into that location. Of
|
||||
course, passing the flag `--argstr compiler ghc763` allows switching the build
|
||||
to any version of GHC currently supported.
|
||||
|
||||
Furthermore, you can call `nix-shell` to enter an interactive development
|
||||
environment in which you can use `cabal configure` and `cabal build` to develop
|
||||
your code. That environment will automatically contain a proper GHC derivation
|
||||
with all the required libraries registered as well as all the system-level
|
||||
libraries your package might need.
|
||||
|
||||
If your package does not depend on any system-level libraries, then it's
|
||||
sufficient to run
|
||||
|
||||
$ nix-shell --command "cabal configure"
|
||||
|
||||
once to set up your build. `cabal-install` determines the absolute paths to all
|
||||
resources required for the build and writes them into a config file in the
|
||||
`dist/` directory. Once that's done, you can run `cabal build` and any other
|
||||
command for that project even outside of the `nix-shell` environment. This
|
||||
feature is particularly nice for those of us who like to edit their code with
|
||||
an IDE, like Emacs' `haskell-mode`, because it's not necessary to start Emacs
|
||||
inside of nix-shell just to make it find out the necessary settings for
|
||||
building the project; `cabal-install` has already done that for us.
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to do some quick-and-dirty hacking and don't want to bother setting
|
||||
up a `default.nix` and `shell.nix` file manually, then you can use the
|
||||
`--shell` flag offered by `cabal2nix` to have it generate a stand-alone
|
||||
`nix-shell` environment for you. With that feature, running
|
||||
|
||||
$ cabal2nix --shell . >shell.nix
|
||||
$ nix-shell --command "cabal configure"
|
||||
|
||||
is usually enough to set up a build environment for any given Haskell package.
|
||||
You can even use that generated file to run `nix-build`, too:
|
||||
|
||||
$ nix-build shell.nix
|
||||
|
||||
### How to build projects that depend on each other
|
||||
|
||||
If you have multiple private Haskell packages that depend on each other, then
|
||||
you'll have to register those packages in the Nixpkgs set to make them visible
|
||||
for the dependency resolution performed by `callPackage`. First of all, change
|
||||
into each of your projects top-level directories and generate a `default.nix`
|
||||
file with `cabal2nix`:
|
||||
|
||||
$ cd ~/src/foo && cabal2nix . >default.nix
|
||||
$ cd ~/src/bar && cabal2nix . >default.nix
|
||||
|
||||
Then edit your `~/.nixpkgs/config.nix` file to register those builds in the
|
||||
default Haskell package set:
|
||||
|
||||
{
|
||||
packageOverrides = super: let self = super.pkgs; in
|
||||
{
|
||||
haskellPackages = super.haskellPackages.override {
|
||||
overrides = self: super: {
|
||||
foo = self.callPackage ../src/foo {};
|
||||
bar = self.callPackage ../src/bar {};
|
||||
};
|
||||
};
|
||||
};
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
Once that's accomplished, `nix-env -f "<nixpkgs>" -qA haskellPackages` will
|
||||
show your packages like any other package from Hackage, and you can build them
|
||||
|
||||
$ nix-build "<nixpkgs>" -A haskellPackages.foo
|
||||
|
||||
or enter an interactive shell environment suitable for building them:
|
||||
|
||||
$ nix-shell "<nixpkgs>" -A haskellPackages.bar.env
|
||||
|
||||
## Miscellaneous Topics
|
||||
|
||||
### How to build with profiling enabled
|
||||
|
||||
Every Haskell package set takes a function called `overrides` that you can use
|
||||
to manipulate the package as much as you please. One useful application of this
|
||||
feature is to replace the default `mkDerivation` function with one that enables
|
||||
library profiling for all packages. To accomplish that, add configure the
|
||||
following snippet in your `~/.nixpkgs/config.nix` file:
|
||||
|
||||
{
|
||||
packageOverrides = super: let self = super.pkgs; in
|
||||
{
|
||||
profiledHaskellPackages = self.haskellPackages.override {
|
||||
overrides = self: super: {
|
||||
mkDerivation = args: super.mkDerivation (args // {
|
||||
enableLibraryProfiling = true;
|
||||
});
|
||||
};
|
||||
};
|
||||
};
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
Then, replace instances of `haskellPackages` in the `cabal2nix`-generated
|
||||
`default.nix` or `shell.nix` files with `profiledHaskellPackages`.
|
||||
|
||||
### How to override package versions in a compiler-specific package set
|
||||
|
||||
Nixpkgs provides the latest version of
|
||||
[`ghc-events`](http://hackage.haskell.org/package/ghc-events), which is 0.4.4.0
|
||||
at the time of this writing. This is fine for users of GHC 7.10.x, but GHC
|
||||
7.8.4 cannot compile that binary. Now, one way to solve that problem is to
|
||||
register an older version of `ghc-events` in the 7.8.x-specific package set.
|
||||
The first step is to generate Nix build instructions with `cabal2nix`:
|
||||
|
||||
$ cabal2nix cabal://ghc-events-0.4.3.0 >~/.nixpkgs/ghc-events-0.4.3.0.nix
|
||||
|
||||
Then add the override in `~/.nixpkgs/config.nix`:
|
||||
|
||||
{
|
||||
packageOverrides = super: let self = super.pkgs; in
|
||||
{
|
||||
haskell = super.haskell // {
|
||||
packages = super.haskell.packages // {
|
||||
ghc784 = super.haskell.packages.ghc784.override {
|
||||
overrides = self: super: {
|
||||
ghc-events = self.callPackage ./ghc-events-0.4.3.0.nix {};
|
||||
};
|
||||
};
|
||||
};
|
||||
};
|
||||
};
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
This code is a little crazy, no doubt, but it's necessary because the intuitive
|
||||
version
|
||||
|
||||
haskell.packages.ghc784 = super.haskell.packages.ghc784.override {
|
||||
overrides = self: super: {
|
||||
ghc-events = self.callPackage ./ghc-events-0.4.3.0.nix {};
|
||||
};
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
doesn't do what we want it to: that code replaces the `haskell` package set in
|
||||
Nixpkgs with one that contains only one entry,`packages`, which contains only
|
||||
one entry `ghc784`. This override loses the `haskell.compiler` set, and it
|
||||
loses the `haskell.packages.ghcXYZ` sets for all compilers but GHC 7.8.4. To
|
||||
avoid that problem, we have to perform the convoluted little dance from above,
|
||||
iterating over each step in hierarchy.
|
||||
|
||||
Once it's accomplished, however, we can install a variant of `ghc-events`
|
||||
that's compiled with GHC 7.8.4:
|
||||
|
||||
nix-env -f "<nixpkgs>" -iA haskell.packages.ghc784.ghc-events
|
||||
|
||||
Unfortunately, it turns out that this build fails again while executing the
|
||||
test suite! Apparently, the release archive on Hackage is missing some data
|
||||
files that the test suite requires, so we cannot run it. We accomplish that by
|
||||
re-generating the Nix expression with the `--no-check` flag:
|
||||
|
||||
$ cabal2nix --no-check cabal://ghc-events-0.4.3.0 >~/.nixpkgs/ghc-events-0.4.3.0.nix
|
||||
|
||||
Now the builds succeeds.
|
||||
|
||||
Of course, in the concrete example of `ghc-events` this whole exercise is not
|
||||
an ideal solution, because `ghc-events` can analyze the output emitted by any
|
||||
version of GHC later than 6.12 regardless of the compiler version that was used
|
||||
to build the `ghc-events' executable, so strictly speaking there's no reason to
|
||||
prefer one built with GHC 7.8.x in the first place. However, for users who
|
||||
cannot use GHC 7.10.x at all for some reason, the approach of downgrading to an
|
||||
older version might be useful.
|
||||
|
||||
### How to recover from GHC's infamous non-deterministic library ID bug
|
||||
|
||||
GHC and distributed build farms don't get along well:
|
||||
|
||||
https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/4012
|
||||
|
||||
When you see an error like this one
|
||||
|
||||
package foo-0.7.1.0 is broken due to missing package
|
||||
text-1.2.0.4-98506efb1b9ada233bb5c2b2db516d91
|
||||
|
||||
then you have to download and re-install `foo` and all its dependents from
|
||||
scratch:
|
||||
|
||||
# nix-store -q --referrers /nix/store/*-haskell-text-1.2.0.4 \
|
||||
| xargs -L 1 nix-store --repair-path --option binary-caches http://hydra.nixos.org
|
||||
|
||||
If you're using additional Hydra servers other than `hydra.nixos.org`, then it
|
||||
might be necessary to purge the local caches that store data from those
|
||||
machines to disable these binary channels for the duration of the previous
|
||||
command, i.e. by running:
|
||||
|
||||
rm /nix/var/nix/binary-cache-v3.sqlite
|
||||
rm /nix/var/nix/manifests/*
|
||||
rm /nix/var/nix/channel-cache/*
|
||||
|
||||
### Builds on Darwin fail with `math.h` not found
|
||||
|
||||
Users of GHC on Darwin have occasionally reported that builds fail, because the
|
||||
compiler complains about a missing include file:
|
||||
|
||||
fatal error: 'math.h' file not found
|
||||
|
||||
The issue has been discussed at length in [ticket
|
||||
6390](https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/6390), and so far no good
|
||||
solution has been proposed. As a work-around, users who run into this problem
|
||||
can configure the environment variables
|
||||
|
||||
export NIX_CFLAGS_COMPILE="-idirafter /usr/include"
|
||||
export NIX_CFLAGS_LINK="-L/usr/lib"
|
||||
|
||||
in their `~/.bashrc` file to avoid the compiler error.
|
||||
|
||||
### Using Stack together with Nix
|
||||
|
||||
-- While building package zlib-0.5.4.2 using:
|
||||
runhaskell -package=Cabal-1.22.4.0 -clear-package-db [... lots of flags ...]
|
||||
Process exited with code: ExitFailure 1
|
||||
Logs have been written to: /home/foo/src/stack-ide/.stack-work/logs/zlib-0.5.4.2.log
|
||||
|
||||
Configuring zlib-0.5.4.2...
|
||||
Setup.hs: Missing dependency on a foreign library:
|
||||
* Missing (or bad) header file: zlib.h
|
||||
This problem can usually be solved by installing the system package that
|
||||
provides this library (you may need the "-dev" version). If the library is
|
||||
already installed but in a non-standard location then you can use the flags
|
||||
--extra-include-dirs= and --extra-lib-dirs= to specify where it is.
|
||||
If the header file does exist, it may contain errors that are caught by the C
|
||||
compiler at the preprocessing stage. In this case you can re-run configure
|
||||
with the verbosity flag -v3 to see the error messages.
|
||||
|
||||
When you run the build inside of the nix-shell environment, the system
|
||||
is configured to find libz.so without any special flags -- the compiler
|
||||
and linker "just know" how to find it. Consequently, Cabal won't record
|
||||
any search paths for libz.so in the package description, which means
|
||||
that the package works fine inside of nix-shell, but once you leave the
|
||||
shell the shared object can no longer be found. That issue is by no
|
||||
means specific to Stack: you'll have that problem with any other
|
||||
Haskell package that's built inside of nix-shell but run outside of that
|
||||
environment.
|
||||
|
||||
I suppose we could try to remedy the issue by wrapping `stack` or
|
||||
`cabal` with a script that tries to find those kind of implicit search
|
||||
paths and makes them explicit on the "cabal configure" command line. I
|
||||
don't think anyone is working on that subject yet, though, because the
|
||||
problem doesn't seem so bad in practice.
|
||||
|
||||
You can remedy that issue in several ways. First of all, run
|
||||
|
||||
$ nix-build --no-out-link "<nixpkgs>" -A zlib
|
||||
/nix/store/alsvwzkiw4b7ip38l4nlfjijdvg3fvzn-zlib-1.2.8
|
||||
|
||||
to find out the store path of the system's zlib library. Now, you can
|
||||
|
||||
1) add that path (plus a "/lib" suffix) to your $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
|
||||
environment variable to make sure your system linker finds libz.so
|
||||
automatically. It's no pretty solution, but it will work.
|
||||
|
||||
2) As a variant of (1), you can also install any number of system
|
||||
libraries into your user's profile (or some other profile) and point
|
||||
$LD_LIBRARY_PATH to that profile instead, so that you don't have to
|
||||
list dozens of those store paths all over the place.
|
||||
|
||||
3) The solution I prefer is to call stack with an appropriate
|
||||
--extra-lib-dirs flag like so:
|
||||
|
||||
$ stack --extra-lib-dirs=/nix/store/alsvwzkiw4b7ip38l4nlfjijdvg3fvzn-zlib-1.2.8/lib build
|
||||
|
||||
Typically, you'll need --extra-include-dirs as well. It's possible
|
||||
to add those flag to the project's "stack.yaml" or your user's
|
||||
global "~/.stack/global/stack.yaml" file so that you don't have to
|
||||
specify them manually every time.
|
||||
|
||||
The same thing applies to `cabal configure`, of course, if you're
|
||||
building with `cabal-install` instead of Stack.
|
||||
|
||||
### Creating statically linked binaries
|
||||
|
||||
There are two levels of static linking. The first option is to configure the
|
||||
build with the Cabal flag `--disable-executable-dynamic`. In Nix expressions,
|
||||
this can be achieved by setting the attribute:
|
||||
|
||||
enableSharedExecutables = false;
|
||||
|
||||
That gives you a binary with statically linked Haskell libraries and
|
||||
dynamically linked system libraries.
|
||||
|
||||
To link both Haskell libraries and system libraries statically, the additional
|
||||
flags `--ghc-option=-optl=-static --ghc-option=-optl=-pthread` need to be used.
|
||||
In Nix, this is accomplished with:
|
||||
|
||||
configureFlags = [ "--ghc-option=-optl=-static" "--ghc-option=-optl=-pthread" ];
|
||||
|
||||
It's important to realize, however, that most system libraries in Nix are built
|
||||
as shared libraries only, i.e. there is just no static library available that
|
||||
Cabal could link!

Packages, including the Nix packages collection, are distributed through

distributed for users of Nix on non-NixOS distributions through the channel

`nixpkgs`. Users of NixOS generally use one of the `nixos-*` channels, e.g.
|

`nixos-16.03`, which includes all packages and modules for the stable NixOS

16.03. The purpose of stable NixOS releases are generally only given

Both `nixos-unstable` and `nixpkgs` follow the `master` branch of the Nixpkgs
|

repository, although both do lag the `master` branch by generally

# User's Guide to the Haskell Infrastructure

|
||||
|
||||
## How to install Haskell packages
|
||||
|
||||
Nixpkgs distributes build instructions for all Haskell packages registered on
|
||||
[Hackage](http://hackage.haskell.org/), but strangely enough normal Nix package
|
||||
lookups don't seem to discover any of them, except for the default version of ghc, cabal-install, and stack:
|
||||
|
||||
$ nix-env -i alex
|
||||
error: selector ‘alex’ matches no derivations
|
||||
$ nix-env -qa ghc
|
||||
ghc-7.10.2
|
||||
|
||||
The Haskell package set is not registered in the top-level namespace because it
|
||||
is *huge*. If all Haskell packages were visible to these commands, then
|
||||
name-based search/install operations would be much slower than they are now. We
|
||||
avoided that by keeping all Haskell-related packages in a separate attribute
|
||||
set called `haskellPackages`, which the following command will list:
|
||||
|
||||
$ nix-env -f "<nixpkgs>" -qaP -A haskellPackages
|
||||
haskellPackages.a50 a50-0.5
|
||||
haskellPackages.abacate haskell-abacate-0.0.0.0
|
||||
haskellPackages.abcBridge haskell-abcBridge-0.12
|
||||
haskellPackages.afv afv-0.1.1
|
||||
haskellPackages.alex alex-3.1.4
|
||||
haskellPackages.Allure Allure-0.4.101.1
|
||||
haskellPackages.alms alms-0.6.7
|
||||
[... some 8000 entries omitted ...]
|
||||
|
||||
To install any of those packages into your profile, refer to them by their
|
||||
attribute path (first column):
|
||||
|
||||
$ nix-env -f "<nixpkgs>" -iA haskellPackages.Allure ...
|
||||
|
||||
The attribute path of any Haskell packages corresponds to the name of that
|
||||
particular package on Hackage: the package `cabal-install` has the attribute
|
||||
`haskellPackages.cabal-install`, and so on. (Actually, this convention causes
|
||||
trouble with packages like `3dmodels` and `4Blocks`, because these names are
|
||||
invalid identifiers in the Nix language. The issue of how to deal with these
|
||||
rare corner cases is currently unresolved.)
|
||||
|
||||
Haskell packages who's Nix name (second column) begins with a `haskell-` prefix
|
||||
are packages that provide a library whereas packages without that prefix
|
||||
provide just executables. Libraries may provide executables too, though: the
|
||||
package `haskell-pandoc`, for example, installs both a library and an
|
||||
application. You can install and use Haskell executables just like any other
|
||||
program in Nixpkgs, but using Haskell libraries for development is a bit
|
||||
trickier and we'll address that subject in great detail in section [How to
|
||||
create a development environment].
|
||||
|
||||
Attribute paths are deterministic inside of Nixpkgs, but the path necessary to
|
||||
reach Nixpkgs varies from system to system. We dodged that problem by giving
|
||||
`nix-env` an explicit `-f "<nixpkgs>"` parameter, but if you call `nix-env`
|
||||
without that flag, then chances are the invocation fails:
|
||||
|
||||
$ nix-env -iA haskellPackages.cabal-install
|
||||
error: attribute ‘haskellPackages’ in selection path
|
||||
‘haskellPackages.cabal-install’ not found
|
||||
|
||||
On NixOS, for example, Nixpkgs does *not* exist in the top-level namespace by
|
||||
default. To figure out the proper attribute path, it's easiest to query for the
|
||||
path of a well-known Nixpkgs package, i.e.:
|
||||
|
||||
$ nix-env -qaP coreutils
|
||||
nixos.coreutils coreutils-8.23
|
||||
|
||||
If your system responds like that (most NixOS installations will), then the
|
||||
attribute path to `haskellPackages` is `nixos.haskellPackages`. Thus, if you
|
||||
want to use `nix-env` without giving an explicit `-f` flag, then that's the way
|
||||
to do it:
|
||||
|
||||
$ nix-env -qaP -A nixos.haskellPackages
|
||||
$ nix-env -iA nixos.haskellPackages.cabal-install
|
||||
|
||||
Our current default compiler is GHC 7.10.x and the `haskellPackages` set
|
||||
contains packages built with that particular version. Nixpkgs contains the
|
||||
latest major release of every GHC since 6.10.4, however, and there is a whole
|
||||
family of package sets available that defines Hackage packages built with each
|
||||
of those compilers, too:
|
||||
|
||||
$ nix-env -f "<nixpkgs>" -qaP -A haskell.packages.ghc6123
|
||||
$ nix-env -f "<nixpkgs>" -qaP -A haskell.packages.ghc763
|
||||
|
||||
The name `haskellPackages` is really just a synonym for
|
||||
`haskell.packages.ghc7102`, because we prefer that package set internally and
|
||||
recommend it to our users as their default choice, but ultimately you are free
|
||||
to compile your Haskell packages with any GHC version you please. The following
|
||||
command displays the complete list of available compilers:
|
||||
|
||||
$ nix-env -f "<nixpkgs>" -qaP -A haskell.compiler
|
||||
haskell.compiler.ghc6104 ghc-6.10.4
|
||||
haskell.compiler.ghc6123 ghc-6.12.3
|
||||
haskell.compiler.ghc704 ghc-7.0.4
|
||||

|
||||
haskell.compiler.ghc742 ghc-7.4.2
|
||||

|
||||

|

|
||||

|
||||
haskell.compiler.ghcNokinds ghc-nokinds-7.11.20150704
|
||||
haskell.compiler.ghcjs ghcjs-0.1.0
|
||||
haskell.compiler.jhc jhc-0.8.2
|
||||
haskell.compiler.uhc uhc-1.1.9.0
|
||||
|
||||
We have no package sets for `jhc` or `uhc` yet, unfortunately, but for every
|
||||
version of GHC listed above, there exists a package set based on that compiler.
|
||||
Also, the attributes `haskell.compiler.ghcXYC` and
|
||||
`haskell.packages.ghcXYC.ghc` are synonymous for the sake of convenience.
|
||||
|
||||
## How to create a development environment
|
||||
|
||||
### How to install a compiler
|
||||
|
||||
A simple development environment consists of a Haskell compiler and one or both
|
||||
of the tools `cabal-install` and `stack`. We saw in section
|
||||
[How to install Haskell packages] how you can install those programs into your
|
||||
user profile:
|
||||
|
||||
$ nix-env -f "<nixpkgs>" -iA haskellPackages.ghc haskellPackages.cabal-install
|
||||
|
||||
Instead of the default package set `haskellPackages`, you can also use the more
|
||||
precise name `haskell.compiler.ghc7102`, which has the advantage that it refers
|
||||
to the same GHC version regardless of what Nixpkgs considers "default" at any
|
||||
given time.
|
||||
|
||||
Once you've made those tools available in `$PATH`, it's possible to build
|
||||
Hackage packages the same way people without access to Nix do it all the time:
|
||||
|
||||
$ cabal get lens-4.11 && cd lens-4.11
|
||||
$ cabal install -j --dependencies-only
|
||||
$ cabal configure
|
||||
$ cabal build
|
||||
|
||||
If you enjoy working with Cabal sandboxes, then that's entirely possible too:
|
||||
just execute the command
|
||||
|
||||
$ cabal sandbox init
|
||||
|
||||
before installing the required dependencies.
|
||||
|
||||
The `nix-shell` utility makes it easy to switch to a different compiler
|
||||
version; just enter the Nix shell environment with the command
|
||||
|
||||
$ nix-shell -p haskell.compiler.ghc784
|
||||
|
||||
to bring GHC 7.8.4 into `$PATH`. Alternatively, you can use Stack instead of
|
||||
`nix-shell` directly to select compiler versions and other build tools
|
||||
per-project. It uses `nix-shell` under the hood when Nix support is turned on.
|
||||
See [How to build a Haskell project using Stack].
|
||||
|
||||
If you're using `cabal-install`, re-running `cabal configure` inside the spawned
|
||||
shell switches your build to use that compiler instead. If you're working on
|
||||
a project that doesn't depend on any additional system libraries outside of GHC,
|
||||
then it's even sufficient to just run the `cabal configure` command inside of
|
||||
the shell:
|
||||
|
||||
$ nix-shell -p haskell.compiler.ghc784 --command "cabal configure"
|
||||
|
||||
Afterwards, all other commands like `cabal build` work just fine in any shell
|
||||
environment, because the configure phase recorded the absolute paths to all
|
||||
required tools like GHC in its build configuration inside of the `dist/`
|
||||
directory. Please note, however, that `nix-collect-garbage` can break such an
|
||||
environment because the Nix store paths created by `nix-shell` aren't "alive"
|
||||
anymore once `nix-shell` has terminated. If you find that your Haskell builds
|
||||
no longer work after garbage collection, then you'll have to re-run `cabal
|
||||
configure` inside of a new `nix-shell` environment.
|
||||
|
||||
### How to install a compiler with libraries
|
||||
|
||||
GHC expects to find all installed libraries inside of its own `lib` directory.
|
||||
This approach works fine on traditional Unix systems, but it doesn't work for
|
||||
Nix, because GHC's store path is immutable once it's built. We cannot install
|
||||
additional libraries into that location. As a consequence, our copies of GHC
|
||||
don't know any packages except their own core libraries, like `base`,
|
||||
`containers`, `Cabal`, etc.
|
||||
|
||||
We can register additional libraries to GHC, however, using a special build
|
||||
function called `ghcWithPackages`. That function expects one argument: a
|
||||
function that maps from an attribute set of Haskell packages to a list of
|
||||
packages, which determines the libraries known to that particular version of
|
||||
GHC. For example, the Nix expression `ghcWithPackages (pkgs: [pkgs.mtl])`
|
||||
generates a copy of GHC that has the `mtl` library registered in addition to
|
||||
its normal core packages:
|
||||
|
||||
$ nix-shell -p "haskellPackages.ghcWithPackages (pkgs: [pkgs.mtl])"
|
||||
|
||||
[nix-shell:~]$ ghc-pkg list mtl
|
||||
/nix/store/zy79...-ghc-7.10.2/lib/ghc-7.10.2/package.conf.d:
|
||||
mtl-2.2.1
|
||||
|
||||
This function allows users to define their own development environment by means
|
||||
of an override. After adding the following snippet to `~/.nixpkgs/config.nix`,
|
||||
|
||||
{
|
||||
packageOverrides = super: let self = super.pkgs; in
|
||||
{
|
||||
myHaskellEnv = self.haskell.packages.ghc7102.ghcWithPackages
|
||||
(haskellPackages: with haskellPackages; [
|
||||
# libraries
|
||||
arrows async cgi criterion
|
||||
# tools
|
||||
cabal-install haskintex
|
||||
]);
|
||||
};
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
it's possible to install that compiler with `nix-env -f "<nixpkgs>" -iA
|
||||
myHaskellEnv`. If you'd like to switch that development environment to a
|
||||
different version of GHC, just replace the `ghc7102` bit in the previous
|
||||
definition with the appropriate name. Of course, it's also possible to define
|
||||
any number of these development environments! (You can't install two of them
|
||||
into the same profile at the same time, though, because that would result in
|
||||
file conflicts.)
|
||||
|
||||
The generated `ghc` program is a wrapper script that re-directs the real
|
||||
GHC executable to use a new `lib` directory --- one that we specifically
|
||||
constructed to contain all those packages the user requested:
|
||||
|
||||
$ cat $(type -p ghc)
|
||||
#! /nix/store/xlxj...-bash-4.3-p33/bin/bash -e
|
||||
export NIX_GHC=/nix/store/19sm...-ghc-7.10.2/bin/ghc
|
||||
export NIX_GHCPKG=/nix/store/19sm...-ghc-7.10.2/bin/ghc-pkg
|
||||
export NIX_GHC_DOCDIR=/nix/store/19sm...-ghc-7.10.2/share/doc/ghc/html
|
||||
export NIX_GHC_LIBDIR=/nix/store/19sm...-ghc-7.10.2/lib/ghc-7.10.2
|
||||
exec /nix/store/j50p...-ghc-7.10.2/bin/ghc "-B$NIX_GHC_LIBDIR" "$@"
|
||||
|
||||
The variables `$NIX_GHC`, `$NIX_GHCPKG`, etc. point to the *new* store path
|
||||
`ghcWithPackages` constructed specifically for this environment. The last line
|
||||
of the wrapper script then executes the real `ghc`, but passes the path to the
|
||||
new `lib` directory using GHC's `-B` flag.
|
||||
|
||||
The purpose of those environment variables is to work around an impurity in the
|
||||
popular [ghc-paths](http://hackage.haskell.org/package/ghc-paths) library. That
|
||||
library promises to give its users access to GHC's installation paths. Only,
|
||||
the library can't possible know that path when it's compiled, because the path
|
||||
GHC considers its own is determined only much later, when the user configures
|
||||
it through `ghcWithPackages`. So we [patched
|
||||
ghc-paths](https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/pkgs/development/haskell-modules/patches/ghc-paths-nix.patch)
|
||||
to return the paths found in those environment variables at run-time rather
|
||||
than trying to guess them at compile-time.
|
||||
|
||||
To make sure that mechanism works properly all the time, we recommend that you
|
||||
set those variables to meaningful values in your shell environment, too, i.e.
|
||||
by adding the following code to your `~/.bashrc`:
|
||||
|
||||
if type >/dev/null 2>&1 -p ghc; then
|
||||
eval "$(egrep ^export "$(type -p ghc)")"
|
||||
fi
|
||||
|
||||
If you are certain that you'll use only one GHC environment which is located in
|
||||
your user profile, then you can use the following code, too, which has the
|
||||
advantage that it doesn't contain any paths from the Nix store, i.e. those
|
||||
settings always remain valid even if a `nix-env -u` operation updates the GHC
|
||||
environment in your profile:
|
||||
|
||||
if [ -e ~/.nix-profile/bin/ghc ]; then
|
||||
export NIX_GHC="$HOME/.nix-profile/bin/ghc"
|
||||
export NIX_GHCPKG="$HOME/.nix-profile/bin/ghc-pkg"
|
||||
export NIX_GHC_DOCDIR="$HOME/.nix-profile/share/doc/ghc/html"
|
||||
export NIX_GHC_LIBDIR="$HOME/.nix-profile/lib/ghc-$($NIX_GHC --numeric-version)"
|
||||
fi
|
||||
|
||||
### How to install a compiler with libraries, hoogle and documentation indexes
|
||||
|
||||
If you plan to use your environment for interactive programming, not just
|
||||
compiling random Haskell code, you might want to replace `ghcWithPackages` in
|
||||
all the listings above with `ghcWithHoogle`.
|
||||
|
||||
This environment generator not only produces an environment with GHC and all
|
||||
the specified libraries, but also generates a `hoogle` and `haddock` indexes
|
||||
for all the packages, and provides a wrapper script around `hoogle` binary that
|
||||
uses all those things. A precise name for this thing would be
|
||||
"`ghcWithPackagesAndHoogleAndDocumentationIndexes`", which is, regrettably, too
|
||||
long and scary.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, installing the following environment
|
||||
|
||||
{
|
||||
packageOverrides = super: let self = super.pkgs; in
|
||||
{
|
||||
myHaskellEnv = self.haskellPackages.ghcWithHoogle
|
||||
(haskellPackages: with haskellPackages; [
|
||||
# libraries
|
||||
arrows async cgi criterion
|
||||
# tools
|
||||
cabal-install haskintex
|
||||
]);
|
||||
};
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
allows one to browse module documentation index [not too dissimilar to
|
||||
this](https://downloads.haskell.org/~ghc/latest/docs/html/libraries/index.html)
|
||||
for all the specified packages and their dependencies by directing a browser of
|
||||
choice to `~/.nix-profiles/share/doc/hoogle/index.html` (or
|
||||
`/run/current-system/sw/share/doc/hoogle/index.html` in case you put it in
|
||||
`environment.systemPackages` in NixOS).
|
||||
|
||||
After you've marveled enough at that try adding the following to your
|
||||
`~/.ghc/ghci.conf`
|
||||
|
||||
:def hoogle \s -> return $ ":! hoogle search -cl --count=15 \"" ++ s ++ "\""
|
||||
:def doc \s -> return $ ":! hoogle search -cl --info \"" ++ s ++ "\""
|
||||
|
||||
and test it by typing into `ghci`:
|
||||
|
||||
:hoogle a -> a
|
||||
:doc a -> a
|
||||
|
||||
Be sure to note the links to `haddock` files in the output. With any modern and
|
||||
properly configured terminal emulator you can just click those links to
|
||||
navigate there.
|
||||
|
||||
Finally, you can run
|
||||
|
||||
hoogle server -p 8080
|
||||
|
||||
and navigate to http://localhost:8080/ for your own local
|
||||
[Hoogle](https://www.haskell.org/hoogle/). Note, however, that Firefox and
|
||||
possibly other browsers disallow navigation from `http:` to `file:` URIs for
|
||||
security reasons, which might be quite an inconvenience. See [this
|
||||
page](http://kb.mozillazine.org/Links_to_local_pages_do_not_work) for
|
||||
workarounds.
|
||||
|
||||
### How to build a Haskell project using Stack
|
||||
|
||||
[Stack](http://haskellstack.org) is a popular build tool for Haskell projects.
|
||||
It has first-class support for Nix. Stack can optionally use Nix to
|
||||
automatically select the right version of GHC and other build tools to build,
|
||||
test and execute apps in an existing project downloaded from somewhere on the
|
||||
Internet. Pass the `--nix` flag to any `stack` command to do so, e.g.
|
||||
|
||||
$ git clone --recursive http://github.com/yesodweb/wai
|
||||
$ cd wai
|
||||
$ stack --nix build
|
||||
|
||||
If you want `stack` to use Nix by default, you can add a `nix` section to the
|
||||
`stack.yaml` file, as explained in the [Stack documentation][stack-nix-doc]. For
|
||||
example:
|
||||
|
||||
nix:
|
||||
enable: true
|
||||
packages: [pkgconfig zeromq zlib]
|
||||
|
||||
The example configuration snippet above tells Stack to create an ad hoc
|
||||
environment for `nix-shell` as in the below section, in which the `pkgconfig`,
|
||||
`zeromq` and `zlib` packages from Nixpkgs are available. All `stack` commands
|
||||
will implicitly be executed inside this ad hoc environment.
|
||||
|
||||
Some projects have more sophisticated needs. For examples, some ad hoc
|
||||
environments might need to expose Nixpkgs packages compiled in a certain way, or
|
||||
with extra environment variables. In these cases, you'll need a `shell` field
|
||||
instead of `packages`:
|
||||
|
||||
nix:
|
||||
enable: true
|
||||
shell-file: shell.nix
|
||||
|
||||
For more on how to write a `shell.nix` file see the below section. You'll need
|
||||
to express a derivation. Note that Nixpkgs ships with a convenience wrapper
|
||||
function around `mkDerivation` called `haskell.lib.buildStackProject` to help you
|
||||
create this derivation in exactly the way Stack expects. All of the same inputs
|
||||
as `mkDerivation` can be provided. For example, to build a Stack project that
|
||||
including packages that link against a version of the R library compiled with
|
||||
special options turned on:
|
||||
|
||||
with (import <nixpkgs> { });
|
||||
|
||||
let R = pkgs.R.override { enableStrictBarrier = true; };
|
||||
in
|
||||
haskell.lib.buildStackProject {
|
||||
name = "HaskellR";
|
||||
buildInputs = [ R zeromq zlib ];
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
You can select a particular GHC version to compile with by setting the
|
||||
`ghc` attribute as an argument to `buildStackProject`. Better yet, let
|
||||
Stack choose what GHC version it wants based on the snapshot specified
|
||||
in `stack.yaml` (only works with Stack >= 1.1.3):
|
||||
|
||||
{nixpkgs ? import <nixpkgs> { }, ghc ? nixpkgs.ghc}
|
||||
|
||||
with nixpkgs;
|
||||
|
||||
let R = pkgs.R.override { enableStrictBarrier = true; };
|
||||
in
|
||||
haskell.lib.buildStackProject {
|
||||
name = "HaskellR";
|
||||
buildInputs = [ R zeromq zlib ];
|
||||
inherit ghc;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
[stack-nix-doc]: http://docs.haskellstack.org/en/stable/nix_integration.html
|
||||
|
||||
### How to create ad hoc environments for `nix-shell`
|
||||
|
||||
The easiest way to create an ad hoc development environment is to run
|
||||
`nix-shell` with the appropriate GHC environment given on the command-line:
|
||||
|
||||
nix-shell -p "haskellPackages.ghcWithPackages (pkgs: with pkgs; [mtl pandoc])"
|
||||
|
||||
For more sophisticated use-cases, however, it's more convenient to save the
|
||||
desired configuration in a file called `shell.nix` that looks like this:
|
||||
|
||||
{ nixpkgs ? import <nixpkgs> {}, compiler ? "ghc7102" }:
|
||||
let
|
||||
inherit (nixpkgs) pkgs;
|
||||
ghc = pkgs.haskell.packages.${compiler}.ghcWithPackages (ps: with ps; [
|
||||
monad-par mtl
|
||||
]);
|
||||
in
|
||||
pkgs.stdenv.mkDerivation {
|
||||
name = "my-haskell-env-0";
|
||||
buildInputs = [ ghc ];
|
||||
shellHook = "eval $(egrep ^export ${ghc}/bin/ghc)";
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
Now run `nix-shell` --- or even `nix-shell --pure` --- to enter a shell
|
||||
environment that has the appropriate compiler in `$PATH`. If you use `--pure`,
|
||||
then add all other packages that your development environment needs into the
|
||||
`buildInputs` attribute. If you'd like to switch to a different compiler
|
||||
version, then pass an appropriate `compiler` argument to the expression, i.e.
|
||||
`nix-shell --argstr compiler ghc784`.
|
||||
|
||||
If you need such an environment because you'd like to compile a Hackage package
|
||||
outside of Nix --- i.e. because you're hacking on the latest version from Git
|
||||
---, then the package set provides suitable nix-shell environments for you
|
||||
already! Every Haskell package has an `env` attribute that provides a shell
|
||||
environment suitable for compiling that particular package. If you'd like to
|
||||
hack the `lens` library, for example, then you just have to check out the
|
||||
source code and enter the appropriate environment:
|
||||
|
||||
$ cabal get lens-4.11 && cd lens-4.11
|
||||
Downloading lens-4.11...
|
||||
Unpacking to lens-4.11/
|
||||
|
||||
$ nix-shell "<nixpkgs>" -A haskellPackages.lens.env
|
||||
[nix-shell:/tmp/lens-4.11]$
|
||||
|
||||
At point, you can run `cabal configure`, `cabal build`, and all the other
|
||||
development commands. Note that you need `cabal-install` installed in your
|
||||
`$PATH` already to use it here --- the `nix-shell` environment does not provide
|
||||
it.
|
||||
|
||||
## How to create Nix builds for your own private Haskell packages
|
||||
|
||||
If your own Haskell packages have build instructions for Cabal, then you can
|
||||
convert those automatically into build instructions for Nix using the
|
||||
`cabal2nix` utility, which you can install into your profile by running
|
||||
`nix-env -i cabal2nix`.
|
||||
|
||||
### How to build a stand-alone project
|
||||
|
||||
For example, let's assume that you're working on a private project called
|
||||
`foo`. To generate a Nix build expression for it, change into the project's
|
||||
top-level directory and run the command:
|
||||
|
||||
$ cabal2nix . >foo.nix
|
||||
|
||||
Then write the following snippet into a file called `default.nix`:
|
||||
|
||||
{ nixpkgs ? import <nixpkgs> {}, compiler ? "ghc7102" }:
|
||||
nixpkgs.pkgs.haskell.packages.${compiler}.callPackage ./foo.nix { }
|
||||
|
||||
Finally, store the following code in a file called `shell.nix`:
|
||||
|
||||
{ nixpkgs ? import <nixpkgs> {}, compiler ? "ghc7102" }:
|
||||
(import ./default.nix { inherit nixpkgs compiler; }).env
|
||||
|
||||
At this point, you can run `nix-build` to have Nix compile your project and
|
||||
install it into a Nix store path. The local directory will contain a symlink
|
||||
called `result` after `nix-build` returns that points into that location. Of
|
||||
course, passing the flag `--argstr compiler ghc763` allows switching the build
|
||||
to any version of GHC currently supported.
|
||||
|
||||
Furthermore, you can call `nix-shell` to enter an interactive development
|
||||
environment in which you can use `cabal configure` and `cabal build` to develop
|
||||
your code. That environment will automatically contain a proper GHC derivation
|
||||
with all the required libraries registered as well as all the system-level
|
||||
libraries your package might need.
|
||||
|
||||
If your package does not depend on any system-level libraries, then it's
|
||||
sufficient to run
|
||||
|
||||
$ nix-shell --command "cabal configure"
|
||||
|
||||
once to set up your build. `cabal-install` determines the absolute paths to all
|
||||
resources required for the build and writes them into a config file in the
|
||||
`dist/` directory. Once that's done, you can run `cabal build` and any other
|
||||
command for that project even outside of the `nix-shell` environment. This
|
||||
feature is particularly nice for those of us who like to edit their code with
|
||||
an IDE, like Emacs' `haskell-mode`, because it's not necessary to start Emacs
|
||||
inside of nix-shell just to make it find out the necessary settings for
|
||||
building the project; `cabal-install` has already done that for us.
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to do some quick-and-dirty hacking and don't want to bother setting
|
||||
up a `default.nix` and `shell.nix` file manually, then you can use the
|
||||
`--shell` flag offered by `cabal2nix` to have it generate a stand-alone
|
||||
`nix-shell` environment for you. With that feature, running
|
||||
|
||||
$ cabal2nix --shell . >shell.nix
|
||||
$ nix-shell --command "cabal configure"
|
||||
|
||||
is usually enough to set up a build environment for any given Haskell package.
|
||||
You can even use that generated file to run `nix-build`, too:
|
||||
|
||||
$ nix-build shell.nix
|
||||
|
||||
### How to build projects that depend on each other
|
||||
|
||||
If you have multiple private Haskell packages that depend on each other, then
|
||||
you'll have to register those packages in the Nixpkgs set to make them visible
|
||||
for the dependency resolution performed by `callPackage`. First of all, change
|
||||
into each of your projects top-level directories and generate a `default.nix`
|
||||
file with `cabal2nix`:
|
||||
|
||||
$ cd ~/src/foo && cabal2nix . >default.nix
|
||||
$ cd ~/src/bar && cabal2nix . >default.nix
|
||||
|
||||
Then edit your `~/.nixpkgs/config.nix` file to register those builds in the
|
||||
default Haskell package set:
|
||||
|
||||
{
|
||||
packageOverrides = super: let self = super.pkgs; in
|
||||
{
|
||||
haskellPackages = super.haskellPackages.override {
|
||||
overrides = self: super: {
|
||||
foo = self.callPackage ../src/foo {};
|
||||
bar = self.callPackage ../src/bar {};
|
||||
};
|
||||
};
|
||||
};
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
Once that's accomplished, `nix-env -f "<nixpkgs>" -qA haskellPackages` will
|
||||
show your packages like any other package from Hackage, and you can build them
|
||||
|
||||
$ nix-build "<nixpkgs>" -A haskellPackages.foo
|
||||
|
||||
or enter an interactive shell environment suitable for building them:
|
||||
|
||||
$ nix-shell "<nixpkgs>" -A haskellPackages.bar.env
|
||||
|
||||
## Miscellaneous Topics
|
||||
|
||||
### How to build with profiling enabled
|
||||
|
||||
Every Haskell package set takes a function called `overrides` that you can use
|
||||
to manipulate the package as much as you please. One useful application of this
|
||||
feature is to replace the default `mkDerivation` function with one that enables
|
||||
library profiling for all packages. To accomplish that, add configure the
|
||||
following snippet in your `~/.nixpkgs/config.nix` file:
|
||||
|
||||
{
|
||||
packageOverrides = super: let self = super.pkgs; in
|
||||
{
|
||||
profiledHaskellPackages = self.haskellPackages.override {
|
||||
overrides = self: super: {
|
||||
mkDerivation = args: super.mkDerivation (args // {
|
||||
enableLibraryProfiling = true;
|
||||
});
|
||||
};
|
||||
};
|
||||
};
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
Then, replace instances of `haskellPackages` in the `cabal2nix`-generated
|
||||
`default.nix` or `shell.nix` files with `profiledHaskellPackages`.
|
||||
|
||||
### How to override package versions in a compiler-specific package set
|
||||
|
||||
Nixpkgs provides the latest version of
|
||||
[`ghc-events`](http://hackage.haskell.org/package/ghc-events), which is 0.4.4.0
|
||||
at the time of this writing. This is fine for users of GHC 7.10.x, but GHC
|
||||
7.8.4 cannot compile that binary. Now, one way to solve that problem is to
|
||||
register an older version of `ghc-events` in the 7.8.x-specific package set.
|
||||
The first step is to generate Nix build instructions with `cabal2nix`:
|
||||
|
||||
$ cabal2nix cabal://ghc-events-0.4.3.0 >~/.nixpkgs/ghc-events-0.4.3.0.nix
|
||||
|
||||
Then add the override in `~/.nixpkgs/config.nix`:
|
||||
|
||||
{
|
||||
packageOverrides = super: let self = super.pkgs; in
|
||||
{
|
||||
haskell = super.haskell // {
|
||||
packages = super.haskell.packages // {
|
||||
ghc784 = super.haskell.packages.ghc784.override {
|
||||
overrides = self: super: {
|
||||
ghc-events = self.callPackage ./ghc-events-0.4.3.0.nix {};
|
||||
};
|
||||
};
|
||||
};
|
||||
};
|
||||
};
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
This code is a little crazy, no doubt, but it's necessary because the intuitive
|
||||
version
|
||||
|
||||
haskell.packages.ghc784 = super.haskell.packages.ghc784.override {
|
||||
overrides = self: super: {
|
||||
ghc-events = self.callPackage ./ghc-events-0.4.3.0.nix {};
|
||||
};
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
doesn't do what we want it to: that code replaces the `haskell` package set in
|
||||
Nixpkgs with one that contains only one entry,`packages`, which contains only
|
||||
one entry `ghc784`. This override loses the `haskell.compiler` set, and it
|
||||
loses the `haskell.packages.ghcXYZ` sets for all compilers but GHC 7.8.4. To
|
||||
avoid that problem, we have to perform the convoluted little dance from above,
|
||||
iterating over each step in hierarchy.
|
||||
|
||||
Once it's accomplished, however, we can install a variant of `ghc-events`
|
||||
that's compiled with GHC 7.8.4:
|
||||
|
||||
nix-env -f "<nixpkgs>" -iA haskell.packages.ghc784.ghc-events
|
||||
|
||||
Unfortunately, it turns out that this build fails again while executing the
|
||||
test suite! Apparently, the release archive on Hackage is missing some data
|
||||
files that the test suite requires, so we cannot run it. We accomplish that by
|
||||
re-generating the Nix expression with the `--no-check` flag:
|
||||
|
||||
$ cabal2nix --no-check cabal://ghc-events-0.4.3.0 >~/.nixpkgs/ghc-events-0.4.3.0.nix
|
||||
|
||||
Now the builds succeeds.
|
||||
|
||||
Of course, in the concrete example of `ghc-events` this whole exercise is not
|
||||
an ideal solution, because `ghc-events` can analyze the output emitted by any
|
||||
version of GHC later than 6.12 regardless of the compiler version that was used
|
||||
to build the `ghc-events' executable, so strictly speaking there's no reason to
|
||||
prefer one built with GHC 7.8.x in the first place. However, for users who
|
||||
cannot use GHC 7.10.x at all for some reason, the approach of downgrading to an
|
||||
older version might be useful.
|
||||
|
||||
### How to recover from GHC's infamous non-deterministic library ID bug
|
||||
|
||||
GHC and distributed build farms don't get along well:
|
||||
|
||||
https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/4012
|
||||
|
||||
When you see an error like this one
|
||||
|
||||
package foo-0.7.1.0 is broken due to missing package
|
||||
text-1.2.0.4-98506efb1b9ada233bb5c2b2db516d91
|
||||
|
||||
then you have to download and re-install `foo` and all its dependents from
|
||||
scratch:
|
||||
|
||||
# nix-store -q --referrers /nix/store/*-haskell-text-1.2.0.4 \
|
||||
| xargs -L 1 nix-store --repair-path
|
||||
|
||||
If you're using additional Hydra servers other than `hydra.nixos.org`, then it
|
||||
might be necessary to purge the local caches that store data from those
|
||||
machines to disable these binary channels for the duration of the previous
|
||||
command, i.e. by running:
|
||||
|
||||
rm /nix/var/nix/binary-cache-v3.sqlite
|
||||
rm /nix/var/nix/manifests/*
|
||||
rm /nix/var/nix/channel-cache/*
|
||||
|
||||
### How to use the Haste Haskell-to-Javascript transpiler
|
||||
|
||||
Open a shell with `haste-compiler` and `haste-cabal-install` (you don't actually need
|
||||
`node`, but it can be useful to test stuff):
|
||||
|
||||
$ nix-shell -p "haskellPackages.ghcWithPackages (self: with self; [haste-cabal-install haste-compiler])" -p nodejs
|
||||
|
||||
You may not need the following step but if `haste-boot` fails to compile all the
|
||||
packages it needs, this might do the trick
|
||||
|
||||
$ haste-cabal update
|
||||
|
||||
`haste-boot` builds a set of core libraries so that they can be used from Javascript
|
||||
transpiled programs:
|
||||
|
||||
$ haste-boot
|
||||
|
||||
Transpile and run a "Hello world" program:
|
||||
|
||||
$ echo 'module Main where main = putStrLn "Hello world"' > hello-world.hs
|
||||
$ hastec --onexec hello-world.hs
|
||||
$ node hello-world.js
|
||||
Hello world
|
||||
|
||||
### Builds on Darwin fail with `math.h` not found
|
||||
|
||||
Users of GHC on Darwin have occasionally reported that builds fail, because the
|
||||
compiler complains about a missing include file:
|
||||
|
||||
fatal error: 'math.h' file not found
|
||||
|
||||
The issue has been discussed at length in [ticket
|
||||
6390](https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/6390), and so far no good
|
||||
solution has been proposed. As a work-around, users who run into this problem
|
||||
can configure the environment variables
|
||||
|
||||
export NIX_CFLAGS_COMPILE="-idirafter /usr/include"
|
||||
export NIX_CFLAGS_LINK="-L/usr/lib"
|
||||
|
||||
in their `~/.bashrc` file to avoid the compiler error.
|
||||
|
||||
### Builds using Stack complain about missing system libraries
|
||||
|
||||
-- While building package zlib-0.5.4.2 using:
|
||||
runhaskell -package=Cabal-1.22.4.0 -clear-package-db [... lots of flags ...]
|
||||
Process exited with code: ExitFailure 1
|
||||
Logs have been written to: /home/foo/src/stack-ide/.stack-work/logs/zlib-0.5.4.2.log
|
||||
|
||||
Configuring zlib-0.5.4.2...
|
||||
Setup.hs: Missing dependency on a foreign library:
|
||||
* Missing (or bad) header file: zlib.h
|
||||
This problem can usually be solved by installing the system package that
|
||||
provides this library (you may need the "-dev" version). If the library is
|
||||
already installed but in a non-standard location then you can use the flags
|
||||
--extra-include-dirs= and --extra-lib-dirs= to specify where it is.
|
||||
If the header file does exist, it may contain errors that are caught by the C
|
||||
compiler at the preprocessing stage. In this case you can re-run configure
|
||||
with the verbosity flag -v3 to see the error messages.
|
||||
|
||||
When you run the build inside of the nix-shell environment, the system
|
||||
is configured to find libz.so without any special flags -- the compiler
|
||||
and linker "just know" how to find it. Consequently, Cabal won't record
|
||||
any search paths for libz.so in the package description, which means
|
||||
that the package works fine inside of nix-shell, but once you leave the
|
||||
shell the shared object can no longer be found. That issue is by no
|
||||
means specific to Stack: you'll have that problem with any other
|
||||
Haskell package that's built inside of nix-shell but run outside of that
|
||||
environment.
|
||||
|
||||
You can remedy this issue in several ways. The easiest is to add a `nix` section
|
||||
to the `stack.yaml` like the following:
|
||||
|
||||
nix:
|
||||
enable: true
|
||||
packages: [ zlib ]
|
||||
|
||||
Stack's Nix support knows to add `${zlib.out}/lib` and `${zlib.dev}/include` as an
|
||||
`--extra-lib-dirs` and `extra-include-dirs`, respectively. Alternatively, you
|
||||
can achieve the same effect by hand. First of all, run
|
||||
|
||||
$ nix-build --no-out-link "<nixpkgs>" -A zlib
|
||||
/nix/store/alsvwzkiw4b7ip38l4nlfjijdvg3fvzn-zlib-1.2.8
|
||||
|
||||
to find out the store path of the system's zlib library. Now, you can
|
||||
|
||||
1) add that path (plus a "/lib" suffix) to your $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
|
||||
environment variable to make sure your system linker finds libz.so
|
||||
automatically. It's no pretty solution, but it will work.
|
||||
|
||||
2) As a variant of (1), you can also install any number of system
|
||||
libraries into your user's profile (or some other profile) and point
|
||||
$LD_LIBRARY_PATH to that profile instead, so that you don't have to
|
||||
list dozens of those store paths all over the place.
|
||||
|
||||
3) The solution I prefer is to call stack with an appropriate
|
||||
--extra-lib-dirs flag like so:
|
||||
|
||||
$ stack --extra-lib-dirs=/nix/store/alsvwzkiw4b7ip38l4nlfjijdvg3fvzn-zlib-1.2.8/lib build
|
||||
|
||||
Typically, you'll need --extra-include-dirs as well. It's possible
|
||||
to add those flag to the project's "stack.yaml" or your user's
|
||||
global "~/.stack/global/stack.yaml" file so that you don't have to
|
||||
specify them manually every time. But again, you're likely better off using
|
||||
Stack's Nix support instead.
|
||||
|
||||
The same thing applies to `cabal configure`, of course, if you're
|
||||
building with `cabal-install` instead of Stack.
|
||||
|
||||
### Creating statically linked binaries
|
||||
|
||||
There are two levels of static linking. The first option is to configure the
|
||||
build with the Cabal flag `--disable-executable-dynamic`. In Nix expressions,
|
||||
this can be achieved by setting the attribute:
|
||||
|
||||
enableSharedExecutables = false;
|
||||
|
||||
That gives you a binary with statically linked Haskell libraries and
|
||||
dynamically linked system libraries.
|
||||
|
||||
To link both Haskell libraries and system libraries statically, the additional
|
||||
flags `--ghc-option=-optl=-static --ghc-option=-optl=-pthread` need to be used.
|
||||
In Nix, this is accomplished with:
|
||||
|
||||
configureFlags = [ "--ghc-option=-optl=-static" "--ghc-option=-optl=-pthread" ];
|
||||
|
||||
It's important to realize, however, that most system libraries in Nix are built
|
||||
as shared libraries only, i.e. there is just no static library available that
|
||||
Cabal could link!

||||

# Python
|
||||
|
||||
## User Guide
|
||||
|
||||
Several versions of Python are available on Nix as well as a high amount of
|
||||
packages. The default interpreter is CPython 2.7.
|
||||
|
||||
### Using Python
|
||||
|
||||
#### Installing Python and packages
|
||||
|
||||
It is important to make a distinction between Python packages that are
|
||||
used as libraries, and applications that are written in Python.
|
||||
|
||||
Applications on Nix are installed typically into your user
|
||||
profile imperatively using `nix-env -i`, and on NixOS declaratively by adding the
|
||||
package name to `environment.systemPackages` in `/etc/nixos/configuration.nix`.
|
||||
Dependencies such as libraries are automatically installed and should not be
|
||||
installed explicitly.
|
||||
|
||||
The same goes for Python applications and libraries. Python applications can be
|
||||
installed in your profile, but Python libraries you would like to use to develop
|
||||
cannot. If you do install libraries in your profile, then you will end up with
|
||||
import errors.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Python environments using `nix-shell`
|
||||
|
||||
The recommended method for creating Python environments for development is with
|
||||
`nix-shell`. Executing
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
$ nix-shell -p python35Packages.numpy python35Packages.toolz
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
opens a Nix shell which has available the requested packages and dependencies.
|
||||
Now you can launch the Python interpreter (which is itself a dependency)
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
[nix-shell:~] python3
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If the packages were not available yet in the Nix store, Nix would download or
|
||||
build them automatically. A convenient option with `nix-shell` is the `--run`
|
||||
option, with which you can execute a command in the `nix-shell`. Let's say we
|
||||
want the above environment and directly run the Python interpreter
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
$ nix-shell -p python35Packages.numpy python35Packages.toolz --run "python3"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This way you can use the `--run` option also to directly run a script
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
$ nix-shell -p python35Packages.numpy python35Packages.toolz --run "python3 myscript.py"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
In fact, for this specific use case there is a more convenient method. You can
|
||||
add a [shebang](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shebang_(Unix)) to your script
|
||||
specifying which dependencies Nix shell needs. With the following shebang, you
|
||||
can use `nix-shell myscript.py` and it will make available all dependencies and
|
||||
run the script in the `python3` shell.
|
||||
|
||||
```py
|
||||
#! /usr/bin/env nix-shell
|
||||
#! nix-shell -i python3 -p python3Packages.numpy
|
||||
|
||||
import numpy
|
||||
|
||||
print(numpy.__version__)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Likely you do not want to type your dependencies each and every time. What you
|
||||
can do is write a simple Nix expression which sets up an environment for you,
|
||||
requiring you only to type `nix-shell`. Say we want to have Python 3.5, `numpy`
|
||||
and `toolz`, like before, in an environment. With a `shell.nix` file
|
||||
containing
|
||||
|
||||
```nix
|
||||
with import <nixpkgs> {};
|
||||
|
||||
(pkgs.python35.withPackages (ps: [ps.numpy ps.toolz])).env
|
||||
```
|
||||
executing `nix-shell` gives you again a Nix shell from which you can run Python.
|
||||
|
||||
What's happening here?
|
||||
|
||||
1. We begin with importing the Nix Packages collections. `import <nixpkgs>` import the `<nixpkgs>` function, `{}` calls it and the `with` statement brings all attributes of `nixpkgs` in the local scope. Therefore we can now use `pkgs`.
|
||||
2. Then we create a Python 3.5 environment with the `withPackages` function.
|
||||
3. The `withPackages` function expects us to provide a function as an argument that takes the set of all python packages and returns a list of packages to include in the environment. Here, we select the packages `numpy` and `toolz` from the package set.
|
||||
4. And finally, for in interactive use we return the environment by using the `env` attribute.
|
||||
|
||||
### Developing with Python
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Now that you know how to get a working Python environment on Nix, it is time to go forward and start actually developing with Python.
|
||||
We will first have a look at how Python packages are packaged on Nix. Then, we will look how you can use development mode with your code.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Python packaging on Nix
|
||||
|
||||
On Nix all packages are built by functions. The main function in Nix for building Python packages is [`buildPythonPackage`](https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/pkgs/development/python-modules/generic/default.nix).
|
||||
Let's see how we would build the `toolz` package. According to [`python-packages.nix`](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/master/pkgs/top-level/python-packages.nix) `toolz` is build using
|
||||
|
||||
```nix
|
||||
toolz = buildPythonPackage rec{
|
||||
name = "toolz-${version}";
|
||||
version = "0.7.4";
|
||||
|
||||
src = pkgs.fetchurl{
|
||||
url = "mirror://pypi/t/toolz/toolz-${version}.tar.gz";
|
||||
sha256 = "43c2c9e5e7a16b6c88ba3088a9bfc82f7db8e13378be7c78d6c14a5f8ed05afd";
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
meta = {
|
||||
homepage = "http://github.com/pytoolz/toolz/";
|
||||
description = "List processing tools and functional utilities";
|
||||
license = licenses.bsd3;
|
||||
maintainers = with maintainers; [ fridh ];
|
||||
};
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
What happens here? The function `buildPythonPackage` is called and as argument
|
||||
it accepts a set. In this case the set is a recursive set ([`rec`](http://nixos.org/nix/manual/#sec-constructs)).
|
||||
One of the arguments is the name of the package, which consists of a basename
|
||||
(generally following the name on PyPi) and a version. Another argument, `src`
|
||||
specifies the source, which in this case is fetched from an url. `fetchurl` not
|
||||
only downloads the target file, but also validates its hash. Furthermore, we
|
||||
specify some (optional) [meta information](http://nixos.org/nixpkgs/manual/#chap-meta).
|
||||
|
||||
The output of the function is a derivation, which is an attribute with the name
|
||||
`toolz` of the set `pythonPackages`. Actually, sets are created for all interpreter versions,
|
||||
so `python27Packages`, `python34Packages`, `python35Packages` and `pypyPackages`.
|
||||
|
||||
The above example works when you're directly working on
|
||||
`pkgs/top-level/python-packages.nix` in the Nixpkgs repository. Often though,
|
||||
you will want to test a Nix expression outside of the Nixpkgs tree. If you
|
||||
create a `shell.nix` file with the following contents
|
||||
|
||||
```nix
|
||||
with import <nixpkgs> {};
|
||||
|
||||
pkgs.python35Packages.buildPythonPackage rec {
|
||||
name = "toolz-${version}";
|
||||
version = "0.7.4";
|
||||
|
||||
src = pkgs.fetchurl{
|
||||
url = "mirror://pypi/t/toolz/toolz-${version}.tar.gz";
|
||||
sha256 = "43c2c9e5e7a16b6c88ba3088a9bfc82f7db8e13378be7c78d6c14a5f8ed05afd";
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
meta = {
|
||||
homepage = "http://github.com/pytoolz/toolz/";
|
||||
description = "List processing tools and functional utilities";
|
||||
license = licenses.bsd3;
|
||||
maintainers = with maintainers; [ fridh ];
|
||||
};
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
and then execute `nix-shell` will result in an environment in which you can use
|
||||
Python 3.5 and the `toolz` package. As you can see we had to explicitly mention
|
||||
for which Python version we want to build a package.
|
||||
|
||||
The above example considered only a single package. Generally you will want to use multiple packages.
|
||||
If we create a `shell.nix` file with the following contents
|
||||
|
||||
```nix
|
||||
with import <nixpkgs> {};
|
||||
|
||||
( let
|
||||
toolz = pkgs.python35Packages.buildPythonPackage rec {
|
||||
name = "toolz-${version}";
|
||||
version = "0.7.4";
|
||||
|
||||
src = pkgs.fetchurl{
|
||||
url = "mirror://pypi/t/toolz/toolz-${version}.tar.gz";
|
||||
sha256 = "43c2c9e5e7a16b6c88ba3088a9bfc82f7db8e13378be7c78d6c14a5f8ed05afd";
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
meta = {
|
||||
homepage = "http://github.com/pytoolz/toolz/";
|
||||
description = "List processing tools and functional utilities";
|
||||
license = licenses.bsd3;
|
||||
maintainers = with maintainers; [ fridh ];
|
||||
};
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
in pkgs.python35.withPackages (ps: [ps.numpy toolz])
|
||||
).env
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
and again execute `nix-shell`, then we get a Python 3.5 environment with our
|
||||
locally defined package as well as `numpy` which is build according to the
|
||||
definition in Nixpkgs. What did we do here? Well, we took the Nix expression
|
||||
that we used earlier to build a Python environment, and said that we wanted to
|
||||
include our own version of `toolz`. To introduce our own package in the scope of
|
||||
`withPackages` we used a
|
||||
[`let`](http://nixos.org/nix/manual/#sec-constructs) expression.
|
||||
You can see that we used `ps.numpy` to select numpy from the nixpkgs package set (`ps`).
|
||||
But we do not take `toolz` from the nixpkgs package set this time.
|
||||
Instead, `toolz` will resolve to our local definition that we introduced with `let`.
|
||||
|
||||
### Handling dependencies
|
||||
|
||||
Our example, `toolz`, doesn't have any dependencies on other Python
|
||||
packages or system libraries. According to the manual, `buildPythonPackage`
|
||||
uses the arguments `buildInputs` and `propagatedBuildInputs` to specify dependencies. If something is
|
||||
exclusively a build-time dependency, then the dependency should be included as a
|
||||
`buildInput`, but if it is (also) a runtime dependency, then it should be added
|
||||
to `propagatedBuildInputs`. Test dependencies are considered build-time dependencies.
|
||||
|
||||
The following example shows which arguments are given to `buildPythonPackage` in
|
||||
order to build [`datashape`](https://github.com/blaze/datashape).
|
||||
|
||||
```nix
|
||||
datashape = buildPythonPackage rec {
|
||||
name = "datashape-${version}";
|
||||
version = "0.4.7";
|
||||
|
||||
src = pkgs.fetchurl {
|
||||
url = "mirror://pypi/D/DataShape/${name}.tar.gz";
|
||||
sha256 = "14b2ef766d4c9652ab813182e866f493475e65e558bed0822e38bf07bba1a278";
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
buildInputs = with self; [ pytest ];
|
||||
propagatedBuildInputs = with self; [ numpy multipledispatch dateutil ];
|
||||
|
||||
meta = {
|
||||
homepage = https://github.com/ContinuumIO/datashape;
|
||||
description = "A data description language";
|
||||
license = licenses.bsd2;
|
||||
maintainers = with maintainers; [ fridh ];
|
||||
};
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
We can see several runtime dependencies, `numpy`, `multipledispatch`, and
|
||||
`dateutil`. Furthermore, we have one `buildInput`, i.e. `pytest`. `pytest` is a
|
||||
test runner and is only used during the `checkPhase` and is therefore not added
|
||||
to `propagatedBuildInputs`.
|
||||
|
||||
In the previous case we had only dependencies on other Python packages to consider.
|
||||
Occasionally you have also system libraries to consider. E.g., `lxml` provides
|
||||
Python bindings to `libxml2` and `libxslt`. These libraries are only required
|
||||
when building the bindings and are therefore added as `buildInputs`.
|
||||
|
||||
```nix
|
||||
lxml = buildPythonPackage rec {
|
||||
name = "lxml-3.4.4";
|
||||
|
||||
src = pkgs.fetchurl {
|
||||
url = "mirror://pypi/l/lxml/${name}.tar.gz";
|
||||
sha256 = "16a0fa97hym9ysdk3rmqz32xdjqmy4w34ld3rm3jf5viqjx65lxk";
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
buildInputs = with self; [ pkgs.libxml2 pkgs.libxslt ];
|
||||
|
||||
meta = {
|
||||
description = "Pythonic binding for the libxml2 and libxslt libraries";
|
||||
homepage = http://lxml.de;
|
||||
license = licenses.bsd3;
|
||||
maintainers = with maintainers; [ sjourdois ];
|
||||
};
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
In this example `lxml` and Nix are able to work out exactly where the relevant
|
||||
files of the dependencies are. This is not always the case.
|
||||
|
||||
The example below shows bindings to The Fastest Fourier Transform in the West, commonly known as
|
||||
FFTW. On Nix we have separate packages of FFTW for the different types of floats
|
||||
(`"single"`, `"double"`, `"long-double"`). The bindings need all three types,
|
||||
and therefore we add all three as `buildInputs`. The bindings don't expect to
|
||||
find each of them in a different folder, and therefore we have to set `LDFLAGS`
|
||||
and `CFLAGS`.
|
||||
|
||||
```nix
|
||||
pyfftw = buildPythonPackage rec {
|
||||
name = "pyfftw-${version}";
|
||||
version = "0.9.2";
|
||||
|
||||
src = pkgs.fetchurl {
|
||||
url = "mirror://pypi/p/pyFFTW/pyFFTW-${version}.tar.gz";
|
||||
sha256 = "f6bbb6afa93085409ab24885a1a3cdb8909f095a142f4d49e346f2bd1b789074";
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
buildInputs = [ pkgs.fftw pkgs.fftwFloat pkgs.fftwLongDouble];
|
||||
|
||||
propagatedBuildInputs = with self; [ numpy scipy ];
|
||||
|
||||
# Tests cannot import pyfftw. pyfftw works fine though.
|
||||
doCheck = false;
|
||||
|
||||
LDFLAGS="-L${pkgs.fftw.dev}/lib -L${pkgs.fftwFloat.out}/lib -L${pkgs.fftwLongDouble.out}/lib"
|
||||
CFLAGS="-I${pkgs.fftw.dev}/include -I${pkgs.fftwFloat.dev}/include -I${pkgs.fftwLongDouble.dev}/include"
|
||||
'';
|
||||
|
||||
meta = {
|
||||
description = "A pythonic wrapper around FFTW, the FFT library, presenting a unified interface for all the supported transforms";
|
||||
homepage = http://hgomersall.github.com/pyFFTW/;
|

license = with licenses; [ bsd2 bsd3 ];
|
||||
maintainer = with maintainers; [ fridh ];
|
||||
};
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
Note also the line `doCheck = false;`, we explicitly disabled running the test-suite.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
#### Develop local package
|
||||
|
||||
As a Python developer you're likely aware of [development mode](http://pythonhosted.org/setuptools/setuptools.html#development-mode) (`python setup.py develop`);
|
||||
instead of installing the package this command creates a special link to the project code.
|
||||
That way, you can run updated code without having to reinstall after each and every change you make.
|
||||
Development mode is also available on Nix as [explained](http://nixos.org/nixpkgs/manual/#ssec-python-development) in the Nixpkgs manual.
|
||||
Let's see how you can use it.
|
||||
|
||||
In the previous Nix expression the source was fetched from an url. We can also refer to a local source instead using
|
||||
|
||||
```nix
|
||||
src = ./path/to/source/tree;
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If we create a `shell.nix` file which calls `buildPythonPackage`, and if `src`
|
||||
is a local source, and if the local source has a `setup.py`, then development
|
||||
mode is activated.
|
||||
|
||||
In the following example we create a simple environment that
|
||||
has a Python 3.5 version of our package in it, as well as its dependencies and
|
||||
other packages we like to have in the environment, all specified with `propagatedBuildInputs`.
|
||||
Indeed, we can just add any package we like to have in our environment to `propagatedBuildInputs`.
|
||||
|
||||
```nix
|
||||
with import <nixpkgs>;
|
||||
with pkgs.python35Packages;
|
||||
|
||||
buildPythonPackage rec {
|
||||
name = "mypackage";
|
||||
src = ./path/to/package/source;
|
||||
propagatedBuildInputs = [ pytest numpy pkgs.libsndfile ];
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
It is important to note that due to how development mode is implemented on Nix it is not possible to have multiple packages simultaneously in development mode.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### Organising your packages
|
||||
|
||||
So far we discussed how you can use Python on Nix, and how you can develop with
|
||||
it. We've looked at how you write expressions to package Python packages, and we
|
||||
looked at how you can create environments in which specified packages are
|
||||
available.
|
||||
|
||||
At some point you'll likely have multiple packages which you would
|
||||
like to be able to use in different projects. In order to minimise unnecessary
|
||||
duplication we now look at how you can maintain yourself a repository with your
|
||||
own packages. The important functions here are `import` and `callPackage`.
|
||||
|
||||
### Including a derivation using `callPackage`
|
||||
|
||||
Earlier we created a Python environment using `withPackages`, and included the
|
||||
`toolz` package via a `let` expression.
|
||||
Let's split the package definition from the environment definition.
|
||||
|
||||
We first create a function that builds `toolz` in `~/path/to/toolz/release.nix`
|
||||
|
||||
```nix
|
||||
{ pkgs, buildPythonPackage }:
|
||||
|
||||
buildPythonPackage rec {
|
||||
name = "toolz-${version}";
|
||||
version = "0.7.4";
|
||||
|
||||
src = pkgs.fetchurl{
|
||||
url = "mirror://pypi/t/toolz/toolz-${version}.tar.gz";
|
||||
sha256 = "43c2c9e5e7a16b6c88ba3088a9bfc82f7db8e13378be7c78d6c14a5f8ed05afd";
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
meta = {
|
||||
homepage = "http://github.com/pytoolz/toolz/";
|
||||
description = "List processing tools and functional utilities";
|
||||
license = licenses.bsd3;
|
||||
maintainers = with maintainers; [ fridh ];
|
||||
};
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
It takes two arguments, `pkgs` and `buildPythonPackage`.
|
||||
We now call this function using `callPackage` in the definition of our environment
|
||||
|
||||
```nix
|
||||
with import <nixpkgs> {};
|
||||
|
||||
( let
|
||||
toolz = pkgs.callPackage ~/path/to/toolz/release.nix { pkgs=pkgs; buildPythonPackage=pkgs.python35Packages.buildPythonPackage; };
|
||||
in pkgs.python35.withPackages (ps: [ ps.numpy toolz ])
|
||||
).env
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Important to remember is that the Python version for which the package is made
|
||||
depends on the `python` derivation that is passed to `buildPythonPackage`. Nix
|
||||
tries to automatically pass arguments when possible, which is why generally you
|
||||
don't explicitly define which `python` derivation should be used. In the above
|
||||
example we use `buildPythonPackage` that is part of the set `python35Packages`,
|
||||
and in this case the `python35` interpreter is automatically used.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Reference
|
||||
|
||||
### Interpreters
|
||||
|
||||
Versions 2.6, 2.7, 3.3, 3.4 and 3.5 of the CPython interpreter are available on
|
||||
Nix and are available as `python26`, `python27`, `python33`, `python34` and
|
||||
`python35`. The PyPy interpreter is also available as `pypy`. Currently, the
|
||||
aliases `python` and `python3` correspond to respectively `python27` and
|
||||
`python35`. The Nix expressions for the interpreters can be found in
|
||||
`pkgs/development/interpreters/python`.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
#### Missing modules standard library
|
||||
|
||||
The interpreters `python26` and `python27` do not include modules that
|
||||
require external dependencies. This is done in order to reduce the closure size.
|
||||
The following modules need to be added as `buildInput` explicitly:
|
||||
|
||||
* `python.modules.bsddb`
|
||||
* `python.modules.curses`
|
||||
* `python.modules.curses_panel`
|
||||
* `python.modules.crypt`
|
||||
* `python.modules.gdbm`
|
||||
* `python.modules.sqlite3`
|
||||
* `python.modules.tkinter`
|
||||
* `python.modules.readline`
|
||||
|
||||
For convenience `python27Full` and `python26Full` are provided with all
|
||||
modules included.
|
||||
|
||||
All packages depending on any Python interpreter get appended
|
||||
`out/{python.sitePackages}` to `$PYTHONPATH` if such directory
|
||||
exists.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Attributes on interpreters packages
|
||||
|
||||
Each interpreter has the following attributes:
|
||||
|
||||
- `libPrefix`. Name of the folder in `${python}/lib/` for corresponding interpreter.
|
||||
- `interpreter`. Alias for `${python}/bin/${executable}`.
|
||||
- `buildEnv`. Function to build python interpreter environments with extra packages bundled together. See section *python.buildEnv function* for usage and documentation.
|
||||
- `withPackages`. Simpler interface to `buildEnv`. See section *python.withPackages function* for usage and documentation.
|
||||
- `sitePackages`. Alias for `lib/${libPrefix}/site-packages`.
|
||||
- `executable`. Name of the interpreter executable, ie `python3.4`.
|
||||
|
||||
### Building packages and applications
|
||||
|
||||
Python packages (libraries) and applications that use `setuptools` or
|
||||
`distutils` are typically built with respectively the `buildPythonPackage` and
|
||||
`buildPythonApplication` functions.
|
||||
|
||||
All Python packages reside in `pkgs/top-level/python-packages.nix` and all
|
||||
applications elsewhere. Some packages are also defined in
|
||||
`pkgs/development/python-modules`. It is important that these packages are
|
||||
called in `pkgs/top-level/python-packages.nix` and not elsewhere, to guarantee
|
||||
the right version of the package is built.
|
||||
|
||||
Based on the packages defined in `pkgs/top-level/python-packages.nix` an
|
||||
attribute set is created for each available Python interpreter. The available
|
||||
sets are
|
||||
|
||||
* `pkgs.python26Packages`
|
||||
* `pkgs.python27Packages`
|
||||
* `pkgs.python33Packages`
|
||||
* `pkgs.python34Packages`
|
||||
* `pkgs.python35Packages`
|
||||
* `pkgs.pypyPackages`
|
||||
|
||||
and the aliases
|
||||
|
||||
* `pkgs.pythonPackages` pointing to `pkgs.python27Packages`
|
||||
* `pkgs.python3Packages` pointing to `pkgs.python35Packages`
|
||||
|
||||
#### `buildPythonPackage` function
|
||||
|
||||
The `buildPythonPackage` function is implemented in
|
||||
`pkgs/development/python-modules/generic/default.nix`
|
||||
|
||||
and can be used as:
|
||||
|
||||
twisted = buildPythonPackage {
|
||||
name = "twisted-8.1.0";
|
||||
|
||||
src = pkgs.fetchurl {
|
||||
url = http://tmrc.mit.edu/mirror/twisted/Twisted/8.1/Twisted-8.1.0.tar.bz2;
|
||||
sha256 = "0q25zbr4xzknaghha72mq57kh53qw1bf8csgp63pm9sfi72qhirl";
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
propagatedBuildInputs = [ self.ZopeInterface ];
|
||||
|
||||
meta = {
|
||||
homepage = http://twistedmatrix.com/;
|
||||
description = "Twisted, an event-driven networking engine written in Python";
|
||||
license = stdenv.lib.licenses.mit; };
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
The `buildPythonPackage` mainly does four things:
|
||||
|
||||
* In the `buildPhase`, it calls `${python.interpreter} setup.py bdist_wheel` to
|
||||
build a wheel binary zipfile.
|
||||
* In the `installPhase`, it installs the wheel file using `pip install *.whl`.
|
||||
* In the `postFixup` phase, the `wrapPythonPrograms` bash function is called to
|
||||
wrap all programs in the `$out/bin/*` directory to include `$PATH`
|
||||
environment variable and add dependent libraries to script's `sys.path`.
|
||||
* In the `installCheck` phase, `${python.interpreter} setup.py test` is ran.
|
||||
|
||||
As in Perl, dependencies on other Python packages can be specified in the
|
||||
`buildInputs` and `propagatedBuildInputs` attributes. If something is
|
||||
exclusively a build-time dependency, use `buildInputs`; if it’s (also) a runtime
|
||||
dependency, use `propagatedBuildInputs`.
|
||||
|
||||
By default tests are run because `doCheck = true`. Test dependencies, like
|
||||
e.g. the test runner, should be added to `buildInputs`.
|
||||
|
||||
By default `meta.platforms` is set to the same value
|
||||
as the interpreter unless overriden otherwise.
|
||||
|
||||
##### `buildPythonPackage` parameters
|
||||
|
||||
All parameters from `mkDerivation` function are still supported.
|
||||
|
||||
* `namePrefix`: Prepended text to `${name}` parameter. Defaults to `"python3.3-"` for Python 3.3, etc. Set it to `""` if you're packaging an application or a command line tool.
|
||||
* `disabled`: If `true`, package is not build for particular python interpreter version. Grep around `pkgs/top-level/python-packages.nix` for examples.
|
||||
* `setupPyBuildFlags`: List of flags passed to `setup.py build_ext` command.
|
||||
* `pythonPath`: List of packages to be added into `$PYTHONPATH`. Packages in `pythonPath` are not propagated (contrary to `propagatedBuildInputs`).
|
||||
* `preShellHook`: Hook to execute commands before `shellHook`.
|
||||
* `postShellHook`: Hook to execute commands after `shellHook`.
|
||||
* `makeWrapperArgs`: A list of strings. Arguments to be passed to `makeWrapper`, which wraps generated binaries. By default, the arguments to `makeWrapper` set `PATH` and `PYTHONPATH` environment variables before calling the binary. Additional arguments here can allow a developer to set environment variables which will be available when the binary is run. For example, `makeWrapperArgs = ["--set FOO BAR" "--set BAZ QUX"]`.
|
||||
* `installFlags`: A list of strings. Arguments to be passed to `pip install`. To pass options to `python setup.py install`, use `--install-option`. E.g., `installFlags=["--install-option='--cpp_implementation'"].
|
||||
* `format`: Format of the source. Options are `setup` for when the source has a `setup.py` and `setuptools` is used to build a wheel, and `wheel` in case the source is already a binary wheel. The default value is `setup`.
|
||||
* `catchConflicts` If `true`, abort package build if a package name appears more than once in dependency tree. Default is `true`.
|
||||
|
||||
#### `buildPythonApplication` function
|
||||
|
||||
The `buildPythonApplication` function is practically the same as `buildPythonPackage`.
|
||||
The difference is that `buildPythonPackage` by default prefixes the names of the packages with the version of the interpreter.
|
||||
Because with an application we're not interested in multiple version the prefix is dropped.
|
||||
|
||||
#### python.buildEnv function
|
||||
|
||||
Python environments can be created using the low-level `pkgs.buildEnv` function.
|
||||
This example shows how to create an environment that has the Pyramid Web Framework.
|
||||
Saving the following as `default.nix`
|
||||
|
||||
with import <nixpkgs> {};
|
||||
|
||||
python.buildEnv.override {
|
||||
extraLibs = [ pkgs.pythonPackages.pyramid ];
|
||||
ignoreCollisions = true;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
and running `nix-build` will create
|
||||
|
||||
/nix/store/cf1xhjwzmdki7fasgr4kz6di72ykicl5-python-2.7.8-env
|
||||
|
||||
with wrapped binaries in `bin/`.
|
||||
|
||||
You can also use the `env` attribute to create local environments with needed
|
||||
packages installed. This is somewhat comparable to `virtualenv`. For example,
|
||||
running `nix-shell` with the following `shell.nix`
|
||||
|
||||
with import <nixpkgs> {};
|
||||
|
||||
(python3.buildEnv.override {
|
||||
extraLibs = with python3Packages; [ numpy requests2 ];
|
||||
}).env
|
||||
|
||||
will drop you into a shell where Python will have the
|
||||
specified packages in its path.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
##### `python.buildEnv` arguments
|
||||
|
||||
* `extraLibs`: List of packages installed inside the environment.
|
||||
* `postBuild`: Shell command executed after the build of environment.
|
||||
* `ignoreCollisions`: Ignore file collisions inside the environment (default is `false`).
|
||||
|
||||
#### python.withPackages function
|
||||
|
||||
The `python.withPackages` function provides a simpler interface to the `python.buildEnv` functionality.
|
||||
It takes a function as an argument that is passed the set of python packages and returns the list
|
||||
of the packages to be included in the environment. Using the `withPackages` function, the previous
|
||||
example for the Pyramid Web Framework environment can be written like this:
|
||||
|
||||
with import <nixpkgs> {};
|
||||
|
||||
python.withPackages (ps: [ps.pyramid])
|
||||
|
||||
`withPackages` passes the correct package set for the specific interpreter version as an
|
||||
argument to the function. In the above example, `ps` equals `pythonPackages`.
|
||||
But you can also easily switch to using python3:
|
||||
|
||||
with import <nixpkgs> {};
|
||||
|
||||
python3.withPackages (ps: [ps.pyramid])
|
||||
|
||||
Now, `ps` is set to `python3Packages`, matching the version of the interpreter.
|
||||
|
||||
As `python.withPackages` simply uses `python.buildEnv` under the hood, it also supports the `env`
|
||||
attribute. The `shell.nix` file from the previous section can thus be also written like this:
|
||||
|
||||
with import <nixpkgs> {};
|
||||
|
||||
(python33.withPackages (ps: [ps.numpy ps.requests2])).env
|
||||
|
||||
In contrast to `python.buildEnv`, `python.withPackages` does not support the more advanced options
|
||||
such as `ignoreCollisions = true` or `postBuild`. If you need them, you have to use `python.buildEnv`.
|
||||
|
||||
### Development mode
|
||||
|
||||
Development or editable mode is supported. To develop Python packages
|
||||
`buildPythonPackage` has additional logic inside `shellPhase` to run `pip
|
||||
install -e . --prefix $TMPDIR/`for the package.
|
||||
|
||||
Warning: `shellPhase` is executed only if `setup.py` exists.
|
||||
|
||||
Given a `default.nix`:
|
||||
|
||||
with import <nixpkgs> {};
|
||||
|
||||
buildPythonPackage { name = "myproject";
|
||||
|
||||
buildInputs = with pkgs.pythonPackages; [ pyramid ];
|
||||
|
||||
src = ./.; }
|
||||
|
||||
Running `nix-shell` with no arguments should give you
|
||||
the environment in which the package would be built with
|
||||
`nix-build`.
|
||||
|
||||
Shortcut to setup environments with C headers/libraries and python packages:
|
||||
|
||||
$ nix-shell -p pythonPackages.pyramid zlib libjpeg git
|
||||
|
||||
Note: There is a boolean value `lib.inNixShell` set to `true` if nix-shell is invoked.
|
||||
|
||||
### Tools
|
||||
|
||||
Packages inside nixpkgs are written by hand. However many tools exist in
|
||||
community to help save time. No tool is preferred at the moment.

## FAQ
|
||||
|
||||
### How can I install a working Python environment?
|
||||
|
||||
As explained in the user's guide installing individual Python packages
|
||||
imperatively with `nix-env -i` or declaratively in `environment.systemPackages`
|
||||
is not supported. However, it is possible to install a Python environment with packages (`python.buildEnv`).
|
||||
|
||||
In the following examples we create an environment with Python 3.5, `numpy` and `ipython`.
|
||||
As you might imagine there is one limitation here, and that's you can install
|
||||
only one environment at a time. You will notice the complaints about collisions
|
||||
when you try to install a second environment.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Environment defined in separate `.nix` file
|
||||
|
||||
Create a file, e.g. `build.nix`, with the following expression
|
||||
```nix
|
||||
with import <nixpkgs> {};
|
||||
with python35Packages;
|
||||
|
||||
python.withPackages (ps: with ps; [ numpy ipython ])
|
||||
```
|
||||
and install it in your profile with
|
||||
```
|
||||
nix-env -if build.nix
|
||||
```
|
||||
Now you can use the Python interpreter, as well as the extra packages that you added to the environment.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Environment defined in `~/.nixpkgs/config.nix`
|
||||
|
||||
If you prefer to, you could also add the environment as a package override to the Nixpkgs set.
|
||||
```
|
||||
packageOverrides = pkgs: with pkgs; with python35Packages; {
|
||||
myEnv = python.withPackages (ps: with ps; [ numpy ipython ]);
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
and install it in your profile with
|
||||
```
|
||||
nix-env -iA nixos.blogEnv
|
||||
```
|
||||
Note that I'm using the attribute path here.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Environment defined in `/etc/nixos/configuration.nix`
|
||||
|
||||
For the sake of completeness, here's another example how to install the environment system-wide.
|
||||
|
||||
```nix
|
||||
environment.systemPackages = with pkgs; [
|
||||
(python35Packages.python.withPackages (ps: callPackage ../packages/common-python-packages.nix { pythonPackages = ps; }))
|
||||
];
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### How to solve circular dependencies?
|
||||
|
||||
Consider the packages `A` and `B` that depend on each other. When packaging `B`,
|
||||
a solution is to override package `A` not to depend on `B` as an input. The same
|
||||
should also be done when packaging `A`.
|
||||
|
||||
### How to override a Python package?
|
||||
|
||||
Recursively updating a package can be done with `pkgs.overridePackages` as explained in the Nixpkgs manual.
|
||||
Python attribute sets are created for each interpreter version. We will therefore override the attribute set for the interpreter version we're interested.
|
||||
In the following example we change the name of the package `pandas` to `foo`.
|
||||
```
|
||||
newpkgs = pkgs.overridePackages(self: super: rec {
|
||||
python35Packages = super.python35Packages.override {
|
||||
self = python35Packages // { pandas = python35Packages.pandas.override{name="foo";};};
|
||||
};
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
This can be tested with
|
||||
```
|
||||
with import <nixpkgs> {};
|
||||
|
||||
(let
|
||||
|
||||
newpkgs = pkgs.overridePackages(self: super: rec {
|
||||
python35Packages = super.python35Packages.override {
|
||||
self = python35Packages // { pandas = python35Packages.pandas.override{name="foo";};};
|
||||
};
|
||||
});
|
||||
in newpkgs.python35.withPackages (ps: [ps.blaze])
|
||||
).env
|
||||
```
|
||||
A typical use case is to switch to another version of a certain package. For example, in the Nixpkgs repository we have multiple versions of `django` and `scipy`.
|
||||
In the following example we use a different version of `scipy`. All packages in `newpkgs` will now use the updated `scipy` version.
|
||||
```
|
||||
with import <nixpkgs> {};
|
||||
|
||||
(let
|
||||
|
||||
newpkgs = pkgs.overridePackages(self: super: rec {
|
||||
python35Packages = super.python35Packages.override {
|
||||
self = python35Packages // { scipy = python35Packages.scipy_0_16;};
|
||||
};
|
||||
});
|
||||
in newpkgs.python35.withPackages (ps: [ps.blaze])
|
||||
).env
|
||||
```
|
||||
The requested package `blaze` depends upon `pandas` which itself depends on `scipy`.
|
||||
|
||||
### `python setup.py bdist_wheel` cannot create .whl
|
||||
|
||||
Executing `python setup.py bdist_wheel` fails with
|
||||
```
|
||||
ValueError: ZIP does not support timestamps before 1980
|
||||
```
|
||||
This is because files are included that depend on items in the Nix store which have a timestamp of, that is, it corresponds to January the 1st, 1970 at 00:00:00. And as the error informs you, ZIP does not support that.
|
||||
Fortunately `bdist_wheel` takes into account `SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH`. On Nix this value is set to 1. By setting it to a value correspond to 1980 or later it is possible to build wheels.
|
||||
|
||||
Use 1980 as timestamp:
|
||||
```
|
||||
SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH=315532800 python3 setup.py bdist_wheel
|
||||
```
|
||||
or the current time:
|
||||
```
|
||||
SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH=$(date +%s) python3 setup.py bdist_wheel
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### `install_data` / `data_files` problems
|
||||
|
||||
If you get the following error:
|
||||
|
||||
could not create '/nix/store/6l1bvljpy8gazlsw2aw9skwwp4pmvyxw-python-2.7.8/etc':
|
||||
Permission denied
|
||||
|
||||
This is a [known bug](https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/issue/130/install_data-doesnt-respect-prefix) in setuptools.
|
||||
Setuptools `install_data` does not respect `--prefix`. An example of such package using the feature is `pkgs/tools/X11/xpra/default.nix`.
|
||||
As workaround install it as an extra `preInstall` step:
|
||||
|
||||
${python.interpreter} setup.py install_data --install-dir=$out --root=$out
|
||||
sed -i '/ = data\_files/d' setup.py
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### Rationale of non-existent global site-packages
|
||||
|
||||
On most operating systems a global `site-packages` is maintained. This however
|
||||
becomes problematic if you want to run multiple Python versions or have multiple
|
||||
versions of certain libraries for your projects. Generally, you would solve such
|
||||
issues by creating virtual environments using `virtualenv`.
|
||||
|
||||
On Nix each package has an isolated dependency tree which, in the case of
|
||||
Python, guarantees the right versions of the interpreter and libraries or
|
||||
packages are available. There is therefore no need to maintain a global `site-packages`.
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to create a Python environment for development, then the recommended
|
||||
method is to use `nix-shell`, either with or without the `python.buildEnv`
|
||||
function.

## Contributing
|
||||
|
||||
### Contributing guidelines
|
||||
|
||||
Following rules are desired to be respected:
|
||||
|
||||
* Make sure package builds for all python interpreters. Use `disabled` argument to `buildPythonPackage` to set unsupported interpreters.
|
||||
* If tests need to be disabled for a package, make sure you leave a comment about reasoning.
|
||||
* Packages in `pkgs/top-level/python-packages.nix` are sorted quasi-alphabetically to avoid merge conflicts.
|
||||
* Python libraries are supposed to be in `python-packages.nix` and packaged with `buildPythonPackage`. Python applications live outside of `python-packages.nix` and are packaged with `buildPythonApplication`.

<title>Multiple-output packages</title>

|

<section><title>Introduction</title>
|
||||
<para>The Nix language allows a derivation to produce multiple outputs, which is similar to what is utilized by other Linux distribution packaging systems. The outputs reside in separate nix store paths, so they can be mostly handled independently of each other, including passing to build inputs, garbage collection or binary substitution. The exception is that building from source always produces all the outputs.</para>
|
||||
<para>The main motivation is to save disk space by reducing runtime closure sizes; consequently also sizes of substituted binaries get reduced. Splitting can be used to have more granular runtime dependencies, for example the typical reduction is to split away development-only files, as those are typically not needed during runtime. As a result, closure sizes of many packages can get reduced to a half or even much less.</para>
|
||||
<note><para>The reduction effects could be instead achieved by building the parts in completely separate derivations. That would often additionally reduce build-time closures, but it tends to be much harder to write such derivations, as build systems typically assume all parts are being built at once. This compromise approach of single source package producing multiple binary packages is also utilized often by rpm and deb.</para></note>

<section><title>Using a split package</title>
|
||||
<para>In the Nix language the individual outputs can be reached explicitly as attributes, e.g. <varname>coreutils.info</varname>, but the typical case is just using packages as build inputs.</para>
|
||||
<para>When a multiple-output derivation gets into a build input of another derivation, the first output is added (<varname>.dev</varname> by convention) and also <varname>propagatedBuildOutputs</varname> of that package which by default contain <varname>$outputBin</varname> and <varname>$outputLib</varname>. (See <xref linkend="multiple-output-file-type-groups" />.)</para>

<section><title>Writing a split derivation</title>
|
||||
<para>Here you find how to write a derivation that produces multiple outputs.</para>
|
||||
<para>In nixpkgs there is a framework supporting multiple-output derivations. It tries to cover most cases by default behavior. You can find the source separated in <<filename>nixpkgs/pkgs/build-support/setup-hooks/multiple-outputs.sh</filename>>; it's relatively well-readable. The whole machinery is triggered by defining the <varname>outputs</varname> attribute to contain the list of desired output names (strings).</para>
|
||||
<programlisting>outputs = [ "dev" "out" "bin" "doc" ];</programlisting>
|
||||
<para>Often such a single line is enough. For each output an equally named environment variable is passed to the builder and contains the path in nix store for that output. By convention, the first output should usually be <varname>dev</varname>; typically you also want to have the main <varname>out</varname> output, as it catches any files that didn't get elsewhere.</para>
|
||||
|
||||
<note><para>There is a special handling of the <varname>debug</varname> output, described at <xref linkend="stdenv-separateDebugInfo" />.</para></note>

<para>CUPS, installed by <literal>services.printing</literal> module, now

has its data directory in <filename>/var/lib/cups</filename>. Old

configurations from <filename>/etc/cups</filename> are moved there
|
||||
automatically, but there might be problems. Also configuration options
|
||||
<literal>services.printing.cupsdConf</literal> and
|
||||
<literal>services.printing.cupsdFilesConf</literal> were removed
|
||||
because they had been allowing one to override configuration variables
|
||||
required for CUPS to work at all on NixOS. For most use cases,
|
||||
<literal>services.printing.extraConf</literal> and new option
|
||||
<literal>services.printing.extraFilesConf</literal> should be enough;
|
||||
if you encounter a situation when they are not, please file a bug.</para>
|
||||
|
||||
<para>There are also Gutenprint improvements; in particular, a new option
|
||||
<literal>services.printing.gutenprint</literal> is added to enable automatic
|

updating of Gutenprint PPMs; it's greatly recommended to enable it instead
|

of adding <literal>gutenprint</literal> to the <literal>drivers</literal> list.

<literal>programs.ibus</literal> moved to <literal>i18n.inputMethod.ibus</literal>.
|

The option <literal>programs.ibus.plugins</literal> changed to <literal>i18n.inputMethod.ibus.engines</literal>
|
||||
and the option to enable ibus changed from <literal>programs.ibus.enable</literal> to
|
||||
<literal>i18n.inputMethod.enabled</literal>.
|
||||
<literal>i18n.inputMethod.enabled</literal> should be set to the used input method name,
|

<literal>"ibus"</literal> for ibus.
|

An example of the new style:
|

|

<programlisting>

i18n.inputMethod.enabled = "ibus";
|

i18n.inputMethod.ibus.engines = with pkgs.ibus-engines; [ anthy mozc ];

<programlisting>

programs.ibus.enable = true;

programs.ibus.plugins = with pkgs; [ ibus-anthy mozc ];

The <literal>services.xserver.startGnuPGAgent</literal> option has been removed.
|
||||
GnuPG 2.1.x changed the way the gpg-agent works, and that new approach no
|
||||
longer requires (or even supports) the "start everything as a child of the
|
||||
agent" scheme we've implemented in NixOS for older versions.
|
||||
To configure the gpg-agent for your X session, add the following code to
|
||||
<filename>~/.bashrc</filename> or some file that’s sourced when your shell is started:
|
||||
<programlisting>
|
||||
GPG_TTY=$(tty)
|
||||
export GPG_TTY
|
||||
</programlisting>
|
||||
If you want to use gpg-agent for SSH, too, add the following to your session
|
||||
initialization (e.g. <literal>displayManager.sessionCommands</literal>)
|
||||
<programlisting>
|
||||
gpg-connect-agent /bye
|
||||
unset SSH_AGENT_PID
|
||||
export SSH_AUTH_SOCK="''${HOME}/.gnupg/S.gpg-agent.ssh"
|
||||
</programlisting>
|
||||
and make sure that
|
||||
<programlisting>
|
||||
enable-ssh-support
|
||||
</programlisting>
|
||||
is included in your <filename>~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf</filename>.
|
||||
You will need to use <command>ssh-add</command> to re-add your ssh keys.
|
||||
If gpg’s automatic transformation of the private keys to the new format fails,
|
||||
you will need to re-import your private keyring as well:
|
||||
<programlisting>
|
||||
gpg --import ~/.gnupg/secring.gpg
|
||||
</programlisting>
|
||||
The <command>gpg-agent(1)</command> man page has more details about this subject,

||||
i.e. in the "EXAMPLES" section.
