Nix build #5298
Comments

@hamishmack added the default.nix and may be able to help. |
|
The problem is just with the default.nix file. |
|
I'm inclined to delete the default.nix file, since I don't know how to keep it up to date, and it's problematic if it's not kept up to date, since people will assume they can use it. |

👍 for deleting the |

I've deleted the default.nix from the repository.
I'm sorry, I can't help with nix build issues,
but hopefully someone else following this thread can,
or you can ask on pandoc-discuss.

This is not necessarily true, especially if you use Having a |
|
|
Yes, but I was referring to the cabal2nix command that is used to generate a default.nix. My point was that |
What does it matter? The point is that it is a generated file and as such it should not be checked into the git repository because it can be derived automatically from the Cabal file. |
Actually it was not default.nix. Sorry, I should have pointed that out earlier. |
Yes.
But that will not allow you to override library dependencies to the exact version, or different source repo. Or specify non-Haskell dependencies (eg: latex). I once tried writing a default.nix to use pandoc 2.x as a library in my own Haskell project (nixpkgs only had 1.x at that time), which involved overriding a bunch of dependencies although I had given up on it.
Oh yes. I doubt a mere cabal2nix-generated default.nix is going to work for a non-trivial project like pandoc anyway. |
It is getting pretty close though. I think a lot of the things that were in the old default.nix are in the output of cabal2nix now. I did have a go a while back at updating it for use with a newer nixpkgs. Here is where I got to.... # This Nix file can be handy when working on the github version of pandoc.

# To build pandoc run:

# To run a nix shell with everything needed to build pandoc with cabal:

Depending on your use-case, you can use the default pandoc nix package: https://nixos.org/nixos/packages.html#pandoc-2, for example: |

My use case is to use |

@srid I found your comment by googling, actually the version of pandoc is really outdated (2.14.02) and i need a simple derivation for a flake to compile a latest version (2.14.2 or newer) . Do you have this in stock ? thanks |
