stack ghci in the checked out repository complains

[573]

Following the (new) steps outlined in the developer guide I get - trying stack ghci:

Configuring GHCi with the following packages: hledger-lib, hledger-web, hledger
GHCi, version 7.10.1: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ :? for help
: cannot satisfy -package base-compat
(use -v for more information)

Thanks for the report. I haven't fully stack-updated the dev guide apart from the "how to set up for development" section. Does stack build succeed ? Can you paste the commands you're using ? Here, stack ghci gives a lot of errors but stack ghci hledger-lib, stack ghci hledger, stack ghci hledger-web seem to work.

PS: fixed typo in previous comment, I meant stack ghci PKG.

I. e. stack ghci hledger-lib gives:

For the stack build part, the linker seems to be missing a library actually, I'll only cite the logs (966 ll. long) tail here:

Will try sudo apt-get install libtinfo-dev

stack build works with the library installed.

stack ghci hledger-lib now gives:

GHCi, version 7.10.1: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ :? for help
: cannot satisfy -package test-framework
(use -v for more information)

[573]

running stack test and then stack ghci hledger-lib again worked.

stack bench then stack ghci hledger works, i guess i got stack now 😉.

[simonmichael]

Valuable testing, thanks! So it looks like currently

• stack doesn't fetch system libraries like terminfo
• stack ghci doesn't fetch deps
• stack ghci seems to require the test and benchmark deps for some reason, and you have to stack test and stack bench (both) to fetch those

[simonmichael]

• stack ghci hledger-web needs to find things like static/ in its working directory, and doesn't in your case

[573]

Had fun and you're welcome! The list of open points appears good to me.

[simonmichael]

Resolved hopefully, cf http://hledger.org/developer-guide.html#use-the-repl-ghci
