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).
This change updates to the latest `nix-tools` to get the following fixes (there are 3 PRs in nix-tools, but just the one in haskell.nix to avoid having to update the materialized files multiple times):
## Better support for source repository packages
* https://github.com/input-output-hk/nix-tools/pull/107
Currently these are replaced by the `cabalProject` functions with regular `packages:` before running cabal configure. Cabal does not treat these the same (the setting of `tests:` and `benchmarks:` in the `cabal.project` file):
* The plan found by `cabalProject` may not match the one used when running `cabal`.
* The performance of the solver may not be consistent with running `cabal`.
This change replaces `source-repository-package` with another `source-repository-package` pointing at a minimal git repo.
## Only include planned components
* https://github.com/input-output-hk/nix-tools/pull/108
Only the components in the `plan.json` are now included in the haskell.nix cabal projects. This avoids missing dependencies attempting to build components that were not in the plan. Should fix#993.
## Pick latest packages
* https://github.com/input-output-hk/nix-tools/pull/109
When the same package occurs more than once in a `plan.json` file (perhaps because it is needed both by the project itself and by one of the `setup` dependencies or `build-tool-dependencies` of the project) the latest version will now be the one picked by haskell.nix. This is a work around for a common issue with `cabal-doctest` when cross compiling to windows (an old version of Win32 is used even if a newer one was required by the projects `constraints`).

* Fix merge regression
* Combine drv, drv.source and drv.dist for doctest
* Skip cabal-doctests test when cross compiling
* Add the --no-magic flag to the .cabal file for the cabal-doctests test.
This appears to be necessary on OSX.
The --no-magic flag stops the doctest executable from expanding path
arguments, trying to locate the package db, etc.
This shouldn't be necessary with cabal-doctest, since all the
necessary options to pass to doctest are computed when running the Setup.hs
script.

`ghcOptions` has been moved from package and is now a list of strings.
old: packages.x.package.ghcOptions = "someGHCoption";
new: packages.x.ghcOptions = ["someGHCoption"];
To specify ghcOptions for all packages:
ghcOptions = ["someGHCoption"];
For a single component:
packages.x.compoents.library.ghcOptions = ["someGHCoption"];
- Added the ability to generate coverage reports for packages and
projects.
- Outputs mix and tix information, as well as a HTML report.
- Added the "doCoverage" module option that allows users to choose
packages to enable coverage for.
- Added a "doCoverage" flag to the component builder that outputs HPC
information when coverage is enabled.
- Added the "overrideModules" library function to make it more
ergonomic fo users to enable coverage on existing projects.
- Modified the "check" builder to also output ".tix" files (if they
exist). This information is required to generate the coverage
report.
- Added a test for coverage.
* Changes to allow opencv to be built
The opencv library needs:
1. pkgconfig for opencv should return OpenCV 3, not OpenCV 2 (which is
what pkgs.opencv is)
2. hardeningDisable = [ "bindnow" ] (as per
https://github.com/LumiGuide/haskell-opencv/commit/5ea490af7662fe74b3740619963d37f1fd91e3d4#)
This commit fixes (1) by adding an entry to lib/pkgconf-nixpkgs-map.nix,
and partially fixes (2) by adding a new `hardeningDisable` option to the
set of package options. The user will still need to specify:
packages.opencv.hardeningDisable = [ "bindnow" ];
I'm not sure if there's a place to specify this as default in haskell.nix.
* Update comp-builder.nix
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.

This fixes and issue with TH functions like `makeRelativeToProject`
that can be used to keep a reference to source files. If they are in
a temporary location that can result in surprising `file not found`
errors at run time.
It may also be useful for making debug symbols and the like refer to
real files.
There is a risk that keeping the source for all packages could expand
closure sizes (if for instance debug info is wanted, but you do not
want to keep the source in the store). For that reason we have
made this an option that must be enabled.
* allow patchelf, stripping binaries, static building, dead code eliminiation, and other doc flags to be controlled via component options
* add ability to turn off shared libraries
This change replaces `passthru.run` and `collectRunComponents` with
`haskellLib.check` and `$pkg.checks`.
Uses `ln -s` instead of `cp` for DLLs to avoid duplicating them.
Adds features to help debugging eval issues with haskell.nix/release.nix.
The ifdInputLevel can be set to limit the jobs included to control
how much work is done at the eval stage when looking for issues.
Reduce CI times by excluding older ghc versions from haskellNixRoots
(GHC 8.6.3 and 8.6.4)
Sets `preferLocalBuild=false` on `callCabalProjectToNix` and `callStackToNix`
to ensure they are cached on hydra for both Linux and macOS.
Fix `data-dir:` when cleaning components.
`normalizeRelativeDir` adds a slash on to the end of `dataDir`.
Adding another one here results in `//` and files are left out by
mistake.
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
```

our change from string -> str to evade the warnings nix generates, resulted in a bunch of
unforseen consequences.
We now modify the str type a bit for our own use.
