# Coq {#sec-language-coq}
Coq libraries should be installed in `$(out)/lib/coq/${coq.coq-version}/user-contrib/`. Such directories are automatically added to the `$COQPATH` environment variable by the hook defined in the Coq derivation.
Some extensions (plugins) might require OCaml and sometimes other OCaml packages. The `coq.ocamlPackages` attribute can be used to depend on the same package set Coq was built against.
Coq libraries may be compatible with some specific versions of Coq only. The `compatibleCoqVersions` attribute is used to precisely select those versions of Coq that are compatible with this derivation.
Here is a simple package example. It is a pure Coq library, thus it depends on Coq. It builds on the Mathematical Components library, thus it also takes `mathcomp` as `buildInputs`. Its `Makefile` has been generated using `coq_makefile` so we only have to set the `$COQLIB` variable at install time.
```nix
{ stdenv, fetchFromGitHub, coq, mathcomp }:
stdenv.mkDerivation rec {
name = "coq${coq.coq-version}-multinomials-${version}";
version = "1.0";
src = fetchFromGitHub {
owner = "math-comp";
repo = "multinomials";
rev = version;
sha256 = "1qmbxp1h81cy3imh627pznmng0kvv37k4hrwi2faa101s6bcx55m";
};
buildInputs = [ coq ];
propagatedBuildInputs = [ mathcomp ];
installFlags = "COQLIB=$(out)/lib/coq/${coq.coq-version}/";
meta = {
description = "A Coq/SSReflect Library for Monoidal Rings and Multinomials";
inherit (src.meta) homepage;
license = stdenv.lib.licenses.cecill-b;
inherit (coq.meta) platforms;
};
passthru = {
compatibleCoqVersions = v: builtins.elem v [ "8.5" "8.6" "8.7" ];
};
}
