Idris packages
==============
This directory contains build rules for idris packages. In addition,
it contains several functions to build and compose those packages.
Everything is exposed to the user via the `idrisPackages` attribute.
callPackage
------------
This is like the normal nixpkgs callPackage function, specialized to
idris packages.
builtins
---------
This is a list of all of the libraries that come packaged with Idris
itself.
build-idris-package
--------------------
A function to build an idris package. Its sole argument is a set like
you might pass to `stdenv.mkDerivation`, except `build-idris-package`
sets several attributes for you. See `build-idris-package.nix` for
details.
build-builtin-package
----------------------
A version of `build-idris-package` specialized to builtin libraries.
Mostly for internal use.
with-packages
-------------
Bundle idris together with a list of packages. Because idris currently
only supports a single directory in its library path, you must include
all desired libraries here, including `prelude` and `base`.

Node.js packages
================
The `pkgs/development/node-packages` folder contains a generated collection of
[NPM packages](https://npmjs.com/) that can be installed with the Nix package
manager.
As a rule of thumb, the package set should only provide *end user* software
packages, such as command-line utilities. Libraries should only be added to the
package set if there is a non-NPM package that requires it.
When it is desired to use NPM libraries in a development project, use the
`node2nix` generator directly on the `package.json` configuration file of the
project.
The package set also provides support for multiple Node.js versions. The policy
is that a new package should be added to the collection for the latest stable LTS
release (which is currently 6.x), unless there is an explicit reason to support
a different release.
If your package uses native addons, you need to examine what kind of native
build system it uses. Here are some examples:
* `node-gyp`
* `node-gyp-builder`
* `node-pre-gyp`
After you have identified the correct system, you need to override your package
expression while adding in build system as a build input. For example, `dat`
requires `node-gyp-build`, so we override its expression in `default-v6.nix`:
```nix
dat = nodePackages.dat.override (oldAttrs: {
buildInputs = oldAttrs.buildInputs ++ [ nodePackages.node-gyp-build ];
});
```
To add a package from NPM to nixpkgs:
1. Modify `pkgs/development/node-packages/node-packages-v6.json` to add, update
or remove package entries. (Or `pkgs/development/node-packages/node-packages-v4.json`
for packages depending on Node.js 4.x)
2. Run the script: `(cd pkgs/development/node-packages && ./generate.sh)`.
3. Build your new package to test your changes:
`cd /path/to/nixpkgs && nix-build -A nodePackages.<new-or-updated-package>`.
To build against a specific Node.js version (e.g. 4.x):
`nix-build -A nodePackages_4_x.<new-or-updated-package>`
4. Add and commit all modified and generated files.
For more information about the generation process, consult the
[README.md](https://github.com/svanderburg/node2nix) file of the `node2nix`
tool.

R packages
==========
## Installation
Define an environment for R that contains all the libraries that you'd like to
use by adding the following snippet to your $HOME/.config/nixpkgs/config.nix file:
```nix
{
packageOverrides = super: let self = super.pkgs; in
{
rEnv = super.rWrapper.override {
packages = with self.rPackages; [
devtools
ggplot2
reshape2
yaml
optparse
];
};
};
}
```
Then you can use `nix-env -f "<nixpkgs>" -iA rEnv` to install it into your user
profile. The set of available libraries can be discovered by running the
command `nix-env -f "<nixpkgs>" -qaP -A rPackages`. The first column from that
output is the name that has to be passed to rWrapper in the code snipped above.
However, if you'd like to add a file to your project source to make the
environment available for other contributors, you can create a `default.nix`
file like so:
```nix
let
pkgs = import <nixpkgs> {};
stdenv = pkgs.stdenv;
in with pkgs; {
myProject = stdenv.mkDerivation {
name = "myProject";
version = "1";
src = if pkgs.lib.inNixShell then null else nix;
buildInputs = with rPackages; [
R
ggplot2
knitr
];
};
}
```
and then run `nix-shell .` to be dropped into a shell with those packages
available.
## RStudio
RStudio uses a standard set of packages and ignores any custom R
environments or installed packages you may have. To create a custom
environment, see `rstudioWrapper`, which functions similarly to
`rWrapper`:
```nix
{
packageOverrides = super: let self = super.pkgs; in
{
rstudioEnv = super.rstudioWrapper.override {
packages = with self.rPackages; [
dplyr
ggplot2
reshape2
];
};
};
}
```
Then like above, `nix-env -f "<nixpkgs>" -iA rstudioEnv` will install
this into your user profile.
Alternatively, you can create a self-contained `shell.nix` without the need to
modify any configuration files:
```nix
{ pkgs ? import <nixpkgs> {}
}:
pkgs.rstudioWrapper.override {
packages = with pkgs.rPackages; [ dplyr ggplot2 reshape2 ];
}
```
Executing `nix-shell` will then drop you into an environment equivalent to the
one above. If you need additional packages just add them to the list and
re-enter the shell.
## Updating the package set
```bash
nix-shell generate-shell.nix
Rscript generate-r-packages.R cran > cran-packages.nix.new
mv cran-packages.nix.new cran-packages.nix
Rscript generate-r-packages.R bioc > bioc-packages.nix.new
mv bioc-packages.nix.new bioc-packages.nix
```
`generate-r-packages.R <repo>` reads `<repo>-packages.nix`, therefor the renaming.
## Testing if the Nix-expression could be evaluated
```bash
nix-build test-evaluation.nix --dry-run
```
If this exits fine, the expression is ok. If not, you have to edit `default.nix`
