* | rust: update cargo builder to fetch registry dynamicallyKevin Cox2017-10-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The biggest benefit is that we no longer have to update the registry package. This means that just about any cargo package can be built by nix. No longer does `cargo update` need to be feared because it will update to packages newer then what is available in nixpkgs. Instead of fetching the cargo registry this bundles all the source code into a "vendor/" folder. This also uses the new --frozen and --locked flags which is nice. Currently cargo-vendor only provides binaries for Linux and macOS 64-bit. This can be solved by building it for the other architectures and uploading it somewhere (like the NixOS cache). This also has the downside that it requires a change to everyone's deps hash. And if the old one is used because it was cached it will fail to build as it will attempt to use the old version. For this reason the attribute has been renamed to `cargoSha256`. Authors: * Kevin Cox <kevincox@kevincox.ca> * Jörg Thalheim <Mic92@users.noreply.github.com> * zimbatm <zimbatm@zimbatm.com>

* | Python: add buildPythonPackage.overridePythonPackage method.Frederik Rietdijk2017-08-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This allows one to always override the call to `buildPythonPackage`. In the following example we create an environment where we have the `blaze` package using an older version of `pandas`. We override first the Python interpreter and pass `packageOverrides` which contains the overrides for packages in the package set. ``` with import <nixpkgs> {}; (let python = let packageOverrides = self: super: { pandas = super.pandas.overridePythonPackage(old: rec { version = "0.19.1"; name = "pandas-${version}"; src = super.fetchPypi { pname = "pandas"; inherit version; sha256 = "08blshqj9zj1wyjhhw3kl2vas75vhhicvv72flvf1z3jvapgw295"; }; }); }; in pkgs.python3.override {inherit packageOverrides;}; in python.withPackages(ps: [ps.blaze])).env ```

| * fzf: add script for finding 'share' folderAlexey Lebedeff2017-07-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | So that helper scripts can be easily sourced in interactive shell configuration. `autojump` package was already present and had the same requirements for findind a `share` folders, so I took an inspiration there. I beleive this is a better alternative to: - https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/25080 - https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/27058 Replacing `$out/share/shell` with `$bin/share/fzf` was necessary to prevent dependency loop in produced derivations.
