Hoogle with cabal 3.2?

[erikd]

I am using cabal version 3.2 for which

cabal haddock all --hoogle

does not wortk:

cabal: unrecognized 'haddock' option `--hoogle'

Using an earlier version of cabal (eg 2.4) is a huge pain in the neck because older versions can't read the index file, and so delete it and download a new one. Then when I switch back to 3.2 I need to download the index again.

Any idea what is required to implement cabal haddock all --hoogle ?

The name of the flag seems to have changed. This seems to at least generate the hoogle files:

cabal haddock all --haddock-hoogle

The documentation needs an update.

Which documentation were you following?

The cabal documentation is also wrong: https://cabal.readthedocs.io/en/latest/setup-commands.html?highlight=hoogle#cmdoption-runhaskell-Setup.hs-haddock-hoogle
