This adds a way to specify the `evalSystem` or `evalPackages` explicitly when calling the `project` functions.
Currently if we want to make a `flake` that supports multiple systems we have few options:
* Require builders for all the supported systems (even just for `nix flake show`).
* Pass `--impure` so that haskell.nix can see `builtins.currentSystem` to set up `pkgs.evalPackages` to use that. Unfortunately this prevents nix from caching some of the work it does and often results in it recalculating for each supported system when it would otherwise be cached and take no time at all.
* Add an overlay to replace `evalPackages`. This works, but it is not straight forward.
* Materialize the nix files for the project.
This change allows `evalSystem = "x86_64-linux";` to be passed telling `haskell.nix` to run `cabal` and `nix-tools` on that system. The user will have to have a builder for that system, but does not need to have builders for the others (unless building outputs for them).
With cabal 3 it should be possible to reference a sublib in the
`build-depends` of a `.cabal` file using `package-name:sublib-name`
The `cabal-sublib` test is updated to include the new type syntax
and a fix is included for the component builder.
We will need to update `plan-to-nix` in `nix-tools` as well.
For now the work around is to use a module to add the sublib to
`depends` (see `test/cabal-sublib/default.nix`).
Without this fix the `cabal-sublib:slib` was not found by
`setup configure` because only `--dependency=slib=cabal-sublib-...`
was passed. The fix is to also pass
`--dependency=cabal-sublib:slib=cabal-sublib-...`.
Fixes ghcjs 8.6.5 and 8.8.4.
Uses emscripten for ghcjs 8.8 and adds scripts for building ghcjs 8.8.
Many fixes for ghcjs test failures.
Includes relocatableConfigFiles for making relocatable ghcjs bundles.
Changes to the interface of haskell.nix (from the changelog.md file):
* Removed `sources.nixpkgs-default`, use `sources.nixpkgs` instead.
* Removed `./nixpkgs` directory, use `(import ./. {}).sources`
or `./nix/sources.nix` instead.
* Removes V1 interface for details on how to fix old code see:
https://github.com/input-output-hk/haskell.nix/issues/709
* Removed defaultCompilerNixName.
* cabalProject, cabalProject', hackage-project and hackage-package
now require a `compiler-nix-name` argument.
* `haskell-nix.tool` and `.tools` now require a `compiler-nix-name` argument.
New functions `p.tool` and `p.tools` (where p is a project) do not.
Like `shellFor { tools = ... }` they will use the compiler nix name
from the project (including stack projects where it is derived from
the resolver).
* `haskell-nix.alex` and `haskell-nix.happy` have been removed. Use
`p.tool "alex" "3.2.5"` or `shellFor { tools = { alex = "3.2.5"; } }`.
* `haskell-nix.nix-tools` -> `haskell-nix.nix-tools.ghc883` (it includes
the hpack exe now).
* `haskell-nix.cabal-install` ->
`p.tool "cabal" "3.2.0.0"` or `shellFor { tools = { cabal = "3.2.0.0"; } }`
* `haskell-nix.haskellNixRoots` -> `haskell-nix.roots ghc883` or `p.roots`
Other changes:
Adds hpack executable to the nix-tools derivations.
Adds a `cabal-hpack` test to make sure `hpack` works with
`cabalProject`.
Reduces the number of calls to `cabalProject` (particularly when
checking materialization), by giving internal tools a per-compiler
attribute.
Uses happy 1.19.12 when building newer ghc versions.
Updates cabal-install 3.2.0.0 to use the source from github that
is compatible with ghc 8.10.1.
Updates the docs for callCabalProjectToNix.
Adds a license mapping to fix a common warning.
Generation the Haddock documentation for a component in a dedicated
derivation (instead of as part of the derivation to build the component).
This means that the haddock documents will not be built until they are
required for instance in a shellFor shell.

Without this pin the plan choosen with the latest hackage is currently
broken and the build fails with:
```

In de3f82a419 a isNativeMusl function was
added, but we did not use it in `builder/ghc-for-component-wrapper.nix`
for selecting a ghc with a suitable `haddock` executable (it was only
used in builder/default.nix).
* Add native musl support
- adds haskellLibl.isNaviveMusl and related fixes (previously it was
assumed that for musl we always use cross-compilation)
- fixed some issues for musl intoduced in nixpkgs 20.03 (ssh/fetchcvs
infinite recursion, busybox pkgsMusl.pkgsStatic chain, etc.)
- cross-compilation fixes for ghc (absolute path for ar, always pass
target to configure, libffi and gmp packages for target platform) -
this needs more testing
* Better explanation for targetPlatform.{libffi, gmp}
* Ghc configure script now respect AR env variable

This overlay helps accessing common executable components.
Typically we want to make these available in a nix-shell
created with shellFor. In most cases the package name
will be the same as the executable, but we have a
`toolPackageName` mapping to help when it is not.
```
# To get a single tool:
haskell-nix.tool "cabal" "3.2.0.0"
# This does the same thing as:
(haskell-nix.hackage-package {
name = "cabal-install"
version = "3.2.0.0"
}).components.exes.cabal
# To get an attr set containing multiple tools:
haskell-nix.tools { cabal = "3.2.0.0"; hlint = "2.2.11"; }
# To add tools to a shell:
shellFor { tools = { cabal = "3.2.0.0"; hlint = "2.2.11"; }; }
```
When used in shellFor the tools will be compiled with the same version
of ghc used in the shell (the build ghc in the case of cross
compilation).
Instead of a version string we can use an attr set containing
arguments that will be passed to `cabalProject`.
For instance to specify the ghc used to compile. Use:
```
haskell-nix.tool "cabal" {
version = "3.2.0.0";
ghc = haskell-nix.compiler.ghc883;
}
```
* Update nixpkgs pins to include 20.03, wobble
- Add 20.03
- Remove 19.03 (and old 18.09 file)
- Update 19.09 to latest
- Update github pin to 20.03
- Remove workarounds for 19.03
* Mark openssl as allowedInsecure
* Force python3 for mkdocs
* Remove unused (and broken) test files
* Make default.nix expose pinned nixpkgs
Also make `nixpkgs/default.nix` just an attribute set of sources.
This is simpler, and consistent with what e.g. `niv` does.
* Add backwards compatibility shim, and version argument to allow evolution in future
* Fix some missed things
* Fix and improve quickstart
* Enables tests for Musl and AArch64 (also rasbery pi, but leaves them disabled for now) and includes many fixes for the tests that were broken.
* Makes Musl cross compiler more like native (including making `ghci` and `runghc` work)
* Updates selection of enableShared
* Works around missing configFiles attribute issue
* Use ghc-extra-packages and compiler.nix-name to pick the right extra packages
* Leaves out --cross-compile on hsc2hs for musl
* Fixes haddock and hoogle for musl and disables them for other cross compilers
* Adds ghc 8.8.3
* Static link components (except libraries and `all`) on musl
* Use qemu for the arm cross compile `testWrapper`
* Add isCrossHost and isCrossTarget functions
* Fixes profiling on AArch64
* Disable split sections when compiling for windows (fixes GHC 8.8 cross compile to windows)
* Disable hoogle in cross compiler shells for now
* fix SETUP being build properly by the build stdenv (nixpkgs#56555 made NIX_DONT_SET_RPATH less restrictive; which showed up in 19.09).
* 19.09 fixes
* Update wine.nix
Currently the haskell.nix overlays replace `haskell` and
`haskellPackages` in the root of pkgs with versions that have just a
fraction of what nixpkgs provides.
Although `haskell-nix.haskellPackages` could be used to provide a much
more complete set there are subtle differences that are likely to cause
issues (and nixpkgs has patches for many haskell packages).
To make it possible for haskell.nix and nixpkgs haskell to coexist,
we need to move the remaining parts of haskell.nix outside of the
`haskell-nix` attribute into `haskell-nix`.
```
ghc -> haskell-nix.ghc
cabal-install -> haskell-nix.cabal-install
haskell.compiler -> haskell-nix.compiler
haskell.packages -> haskell-nix.packages
bootstrap.haskell.compiler -> haskell-nix.bootstrap.compiler
bootstrap.haskell.packages -> haskell-nix.bootstrap.packages
```
The following `haskellPackages` have been removed and instead the
nixpkgs versions will now be in `haskellPackages`. User code should
be updated if the nixpkgs versions are not desired:
```
haskellPackages.hoogle
-> haskell-nix.haskellPackages.hoogle.components.exes.hoogle
haskellPackages.happy
-> haskell-nix.haskellPackages.happy.components.exes.happy
haskellPackages.alex
-> haskell-nix.haskellPackages.alex.components.exes.alex;
```
Guard code has been added to overlays/defaults.nix to prevent us
inadvertently depending on the nixpkgs `haskell` or `haskellPackages`
inside the haskell.nix code base.
The Overlays branch
This is a major reorganization in how haskell.nix is used, and marks our 1.0 release.
The branch doesn't build due to numerous issues that we believe to be with the CI
and not this branch. We expect only very minor adjustments prior to calling this the
official 1.0 release.
* Move iohk-nix patches into haskell.nix
This moves the customizations we did in iohk-nix
into haskell.nix via overlays and config.
Add bootPkgs logic
this moves the nuking of bootPkgs where it belongs. This should eventually still be
removed and replaced by a proper solution, that doesn't require the nuking of
bootPkgs.
Allow us to bootstrap binary ghcs and a cabal-install
With this we can do the following:
```
$ nix repl compiler/old-ghc-nix
nix-repl> :b (let pkgs = import <nixpkgs> {}; in with import ./. {}; import ./compiler/bootstrap/cabal-install.nix { inherit (pkgs) fetchurl stdenv zlib; inherit hackage
; ghc = ghc844; src = pkgs.fetchurl { url = "https://github.com/haskell/cabal/archive/Cabal-v3.0.0.0-rc3.tar.gz"; sha256 = "1zl2mgg8307ykq3v8nmafc6zdhhj1cw7w8ffpap16dsm6
5lbnx33"; }; })
```
which wile it may look daunting, will allow us to bootstrap a
cabal-install with a ghc. From that point onwards, we should be able to
build any hackage package via haskell.nix.
Pass through cabal-install version
Better threading of arguments.
Add bootstrap overlay
Allow alex + happy to be built
This still has a wart: we need nix-tools, and for that we use the ghc865 from
nixpkgs. Ideally we'd build nix-tools against a specific ghc, but then
we'd need a build expression for that.
Make ghcjs work
Building something like this:
```
nix build '(with import ./. { nixpkgs = ../nixpkgs; nixpkgsArgs = { crossSystem = { config = "js-unknown-ghcjs"; }; }; }; (haskell-nix.hackage-package { name = "hello"; version = "1.0.0.2"; })).components.exes.hello'
```
will now work. Assuming `nixpkgs` has been appropriately patched to support the `js-unknown-ghcjs` triple.
Also: this will need an additional `Cabal` patch, to make `Cabal` understand what it needs to do with: `dist/build/hello/hello: copyFile: does not exist (No such file or directory)`
It needs to learn that `dist/build/hello/hello.jsexe` is what it wants to copy and that that is a directory. Luckily we do have some code in Cabal already that does this for `.exe` on windows.
Build `js-unknown-ghcjs` packages with haskell.nix
Using the following expression:
```
with import ./. { nixpkgs = ../nixpkgs; nixpkgsArgs = { crossSystem = { config = "js-unknown-ghcjs"; }; }; };
let Cabal = buildPackages.haskell-nix.hackage-package {
name = "Cabal"; version = "2.4.1.0";
modules = [
{ packages.Cabal.patches = [ ./Cabal-install-folder.diff ]; }
];
}; in
(haskell-nix.hackage-package {
name = "hello"; version = "1.0.0.2";
modules = [
({config, ... }:{ packages.hello.package.setup-depends = [ Cabal ]; })
];}).components.exes.hello
```
in a `test.nix` file. And running
```
nix build -f ./test.nix
```
on it, will produce
```

* Use setup-depends from nix-tools output
* Use `-package ghc` when building Setup.hs
* Include --package-db when building Setup
* Fix for tests on case insensitive FS (macOS)
The file `conduit.hs` looks like `Conduit.hs` to ghc and it uses it
by mistake for `import Conduit`.
