@sofiedotcafe:matrix.orgSofie 🏳️‍⚧️ (she/her)feels odd16:15:29
@sofiedotcafe:matrix.orgSofie 🏳️‍⚧️ (she/her)why can I just apply an patch to an flake input? (haven't switched to Niv yet)16:15:54
@leona:leona.isleona there's .applyPatches 16:16:03
@leona:leona.isleonai use that for flakes16:16:08
@sofiedotcafe:matrix.orgSofie 🏳️‍⚧️ (she/her)how can you use that with flakeParts?16:16:21
@leona:leona.isleonaquite a lot for testing Nixpkgs PRs in real systems16:16:22
@leona:leona.isleona i use colemnaHive and define overrides for some systems' nixpkgs: https://forkspace.net/leona/nixfiles/-/blob/main/hosts/default.nix?ref_type=heads#L41-46. 16:17:15
@leona:leona.isleona

in there you can just write something like

patches = [ 
  (nixpkgs.fetchpatch {
    url = "foo";
    hash = "xyz";
  })
]

@leona:leona.isleonathe colmenaHive foo isn't super beautiful, but for now it works for me16:18:25

@sofiedotcafe:matrix.orgSofie 🏳️‍⚧️ (she/her)i wanna redo my config with colemna and stuff like that16:26:27
@sofiedotcafe:matrix.orgSofie 🏳️‍⚧️ (she/her) and add secrets 16:26:37
@sofiedotcafe:matrix.orgSofie 🏳️‍⚧️ (she/her)but I dont't really have time16:26:46
@sofiedotcafe:matrix.orgSofie 🏳️‍⚧️ (she/her)😭16:26:51
@rosssmyth:matrix.orgrosssmythI redid my config with colmena, then reverted it a couple days later. 16:53:46
@rosssmyth:matrix.orgrosssmythColmena is probably good for remote computers, but for local things the ux is not very good. Also cross-compilation is much more of a pain than it needs to be. 16:54:32
@unhooked-spirits:matrix.orgUnhooked Spirits I spent about 6 hours last night trying to cross compile a rust project from aarch64-darwin to x86_64-linux (using musl)… 16:59:32
@rosssmyth:matrix.orgrosssmythI cross-compile Rust projects at work pretty often. Lmk if you ever need help and I may be able to provide some. 17:01:53
@522_:catgirl.cloud522 it/its ⛯ΘΔyeah im currently in the "trying out colmena" stage (and yeah, for local deployment only, though i might get a VPS just for an excuse to use colmena)17:42:27
@522_:catgirl.cloud522 it/its ⛯ΘΔ not using flakes anymore which is fun
i wonder how much eval time is wasted on the fetchGit ./.
