We should look up hsPkgs.${pkg-name}.components.exe.${component-name}
instead of including the package as a dependency.
Adding `hsPkgs.${pkg-name}` a tool it is not clear which executable in the package `haskell.nix` should choose.
Haskell.nix did not deal with this well and in fact it could lead to `nix-shell` crashing. For instance using `shellFor` to make a shell for building `haskell-language-server` with `cabal build` crashed as a dependency on `ghcide` the executable (by the `ghcide-bench` executable) caused infinite recursion. Allowing `ghcide-bench` to correctly depend just on `components.exes.ghcide` fixes this.
This PR also includes:
* Updated materialized files built with the new nix-tools and latest index-state
* Small update to GHCJS (pins happy) to fix issue that showed up when the materialization was updated
* A fix for the infinite recursion issue when updating materialized files (by adding ghc-boot-packages-unchecked).
* Performance fix for shellFor (checks just the names of component derivations when filtering).
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.
* ghc 8.10
* Adds/Updates/Removes materialization files
* Disable one-shot-kqueue-on-macos patch on ghc-8.10
* Test ghc883 and ghc8101 but only with nix 20.03
* Various smaller fixes.
This should fix the infinite recursion issue with #654

Although the default ghc used by haskell.nix is ghc 8.6.5 many of
the tools used in haskell.nix are still built with the boot compiler
ghc 8.4.4. These include
* haskell-nix.cabal-install
* haskell-nix.alex
* haskell-nix.happy
This change updates those to ghc 8.6.5 and includes materializations
for the new versions.
When cabal-install is built it is careful to disable materialization
checks on the version of itself used during the build to avoid
infinite recursion.
There was a version of nix-tools built with the boot ghc which was
only used when `checkMaterialization = true`. It was used for
the boot versions of alex, happy and hscolour. These have been update
to use the default (ghc 8.6.5) version of nix-tools and
checkMaterialization is forced off when they are being used to build
ghc. This means the materialization will only be checked for these
when they are built independently (they are included in the test set
via haskellNixRoots).
Three new arguments are added to `default.nix`:
* `defaultCompilerNixName` if not specified "ghc865" is used
* `checkMaterialization` makes it easier to switch on materialization checks
* `system` defaults to `builtins.currentSystem`
This change also moves the work needed for hydra eval to the eval
system using a new `evalPackages` feature. This includes:
* Fetching from git with `fetchgit`
* Building scripts with `runCommand` and `writeTextFile`
* `git ls-files` in `cleanGit`
* running `cabal v2-configure`
* copying materialized files (we are not sure why this is necessary but
if we do not `cp -r` the files nix will not load them on hydra)
Reduce size of `make-config-files.nix` strings by around 80%.
These are unlikely to be the cause of hydra eval time memory
issues in the GB range, but were still quite large (around 10MB for the
`cabal-simple` test case).
There was issue causing excessive builds of the `git` package when
cross compiling. Gory details are a comment in `lib/defaults.nix`
but in short if you use `git` you need an extra `.buildPackages`
one is not enough because it depends on `gdb` and that will
be different in `buildPackages` compared to
`buildPackages.buildPackages`.
Adds missing materialization files for ghc 8.4.4 (only needed
when `checkMaterialization` is on because of other
materialiazations, but good to have).
