Much like the previous commit that adds dependencies &
optional-dependencies this aligns PEP-517 build systems with how they
are defined in PEP-518/PEP-621.
The naming `build-system` (singular) is aligned with upstream Python standards.
Since https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/161835 we've had the
concept of `passthru.optional-dependencies` for Python optional deps.
Having to explicitly put optional-dependencies in the passthru attrset
is a bit strange API-wise, even though it semantically makes sense.
This change unifies the handling of non-optional & optional Python
dependencies using the names established from PEP-621 (standardized pyproject.toml project metadata).
There is an arbitrary mapping being done right now between
nixpkgs lua infrastructre and luarocks config schema.
This is confusing if you use lua so let's make it possible to use the
lua names in the nixpkgs, thanks to the lib.generators.toLua convertor.
The only nixpkgs thing to remember should be to put the config into `luarocksConfig`
`buildLuarocksPackage.extraVariables` should become `buildLuarocksPackage.luarocksConfig.variables`
I believe it would be helpful to better explain how to use
`nuget-to-nix` for those who aren't familar with the .NET ecosystem as I
was personally stumped on how to use it.
`lib.recursiveUpdate` indiscriminately recurses into all attribute sets,
also into derivations. This means that it is possible that evaluating a
derivation in the final haskell package set can cause something in
`prev.haskell` to be forced by `recursiveUpdate`, potentially causing an
evaluation error that should not happen.
It can be fixed using a well-crafted predicate for
`lib.recursiveUpdateUntil`, but most robust is just explicitly writing
out the desired merging manually.
lualatex assumes a writeable font cache relative to `$HOME`, for nix this has two implications.
First, the cache might diverge from the nix store if users use LuaLaTeX.
Second, `$HOME` needs to be set to a writable path in derivations.
It is fine to use `with` on the inputs, since that increases the
overall readability of the package.
Removes `wheel` from `nativeBuildInputs`, since it is a result of
cargo culting from an earlier setuptools example, that was wrong, and
it is not required, since it is provided by setuptools itself.
The python-updates branch was formerly called python-unstable, but the
new branch name was never mentioned in the docs. This commit changes the
branch name in the docs to python-updates.
We get a dependency list with pub2nix now. We can no longer easily distinguish between development dependency dependencies and regular dependency dependencies, but we weren't doing this anyway.
