Nix

# idea: provide nix environment for your developement actions
# experimental
/*
# example:
# add postgresql to environment and create ctags (tagfiles can be extracted from TAG_FILES)
# add this to your ~/.nixpkgs/config.nix
{
packageOverrides = pkgs : with pkgs; with sourceAndTags;
let simple = { name, buildInputs ? [], cTags ? [], extraCmds ? ""}:
pkgs.myEnvFun {
inherit name;
buildInputs = buildInputs
++ map (x : sourceWithTagsDerivation ( (addCTaggingInfo x ).passthru.sourceWithTags ) ) cTags;
extraCmds = ''
${extraCmds}
HOME=${builtins.getEnv "HOME"}
. ~/.bashrc
'';
};
in rec {
# this is the example we will be using
nixEnv = simple {
name = "mytestenv";
buildInputs = [ libtool stdenv perl curl bzip2 openssl db45 autoconf automake zlib ];
};
# this is a second example (not covered here but still useful) - given by viric
sdlEnv = pkgs.myEnvFun {
name = "sdl";
buildInputs = [ stdenv SDL SDL_image SDL_ttf SDL_gfx cmake SDL_net pkgconfig];
};
# add more environments below here, just follow the syntax given in the above examples
};
}
put this into your .bashrc
loadEnv(){ . "${HOME}/.nix-profile/dev-envs/${1}"; }
afterwards execute the new bash shell:
$ bash
the nix expression created is called: env-mytestenv and must appear when searching for it using:
$ nix-env -qa '*' | grep nix
env-mytestenv
now we should build our newly defined custom environment using this command on a shell, so type:
$ nix-env -iA env-mytestenv
afterwards load the new environment using:
$ loadEnv mytestenv
one could also use this function instead:
$ load-mytestenv-env
the result using either command should be:
env-mytestenv loaded
note: after you typed the above command you will lose all the other tools usually found in a shell you are used to. in this
example you will not be able to type 'vi' to edit a file as vi is not included in the dependencies
