Elm packages#

Mixtures of useful Elm lang tooling containing both Haskell and Node.js based utilities.

Upgrades#

Haskell parts of the ecosystem are using cabal2nix. Please refer to nix documentation and cabal2nix readme for more information. Elm-format update scripts is part of its repository.

Node dependencies are defined in node-packages.json. Node2nix is used for generating nix expression from this file. Use generate-node-packages.sh for updates of nix expressions.

Binwrap Patch#

Some node packages might use binwrap typically for installing elmi-to-json. Binwrap is not compatible with nix. To overcome issues with those packages apply patch-binwrap.nix which essentially does 2 things.

  1. It replaces binwrap scripts with noop shell scripts
  2. It uses nix for installing the binaries to expected location in node_modules

Example usage be found in elm/default.nix.
