If a folder contains a `default.nix`, Nix expressions contained in
adjacent files should not be imported (they might be things like a
`shell.nix` or a `deps.nix` which do not evaluate to derivations).
The tree traversal still continues for all children folders of a
folder with a `default.nix`.
Instead of exposing the entire package tree from nixpkgs, whitelist
individual packages explicitly so that they show up in
`pkgs.third_party`.
This makes it much easier to control external dependencies used by my
projects.
Bonus: It even includes a working `third_party.callPackage` with only
the whitelisted packages!
This is not the final layout yet, but makes it so that my top-level
attribute set is no longer overlaid into nixpkgs itself.
This is useful for other people who are importing my monorepo.
This makes it possible for people to drop a default.nix into folders
along the way that add additional things into the attribute set at
that level.
These default.nix files are imported and merged with the rest of the
traversal from that point on. In theory nothing stops a user from
putting a derivation into one of them, but the effects of merging that
derivation's underlying attribute set with random other things from
the traversal are undefined.
This feature is being introduced for a slight revamp of the thirdParty
layout.
Passes the location from the root at which packages are imported on to
all packages.
The path is passed in as a parameter called 'locatedAt' which contains
a list of strings with each individual path component.
For example, the blog source in `services/tazblog` will have a list
with `[ "services" "tazblog" ]` passed in as the `locatedAt`
attribute.
This can be used for enabling features such as path-specific imports
when using things like buildGo.
This is a tiny program that does nothing but exists to demonstrate
pkgs.buildGo by building a program that depends on a local library as
well as a protobuf definition.
Broadly speaking, the following things are included:
* there is now a uniform `args` struct that is passed to all
derivations, package headers have been changed appropriately
* overrides are now loaded from a separate `override` folder just
using read-tree.nix
* third-party packages have moved into the `third_party` attribute set
This attribute contains a list of all derivations that should be built
by the CI for this repository.
This includes all of my own packages that are not marked as broken, as
well as select third-party packages.
This version is agnostic of the working directory even if
insertFile/insertTemplate are used, which makes it a lot nicer to work
with in this repository structure.
