 Ralith | a lockfile wouldn't really make sense, since it would inevitably be inconsistent with whatever a dependency needs | 21:15:26 |
 figsoda | buildRustPackage works pretty well too
cargoLock.lockFile is really useful outside of nixpkgs | 22:03:30 |

I haven't found a workflow or tool yet that allows me to make cargo "nix aware" e.g. "cargo build" fetches build artifacts from the nix-store.
https://github.com/kolloch/crate2nix or https://github.com/cargo2nix/cargo2nix might be what you want
| 22:06:31 |
| figsoda | or buildRustCrate and carnix | 22:07:31 |
| SkamDart | figsoda Thanks for pointing out my lack of specification. I was implicitly referring to during development and across machines. One of the great things about using nix for C,C++, and Haskell what I believe the Rust ecosystem is currently lacking, is dependencies are pulled from the nix-store and not recompiled between projects, nix-builds, and development. Does help clarify? | 23:47:26 |

 legendofmiracles | Any reason why rust_Packages_1_45 was removed? I ran into a package today that would have needed it, if the fix wouldn’t have been trivial | 01:25:12 |
 hexa | the last package to use it was firefox 78, so when I removed that due to being EOL I also removed rustPackages_1_45 | 01:29:58 |
| hexa | * the last package to use it was firefox 78, so when I removed that due to it being EOL I also removed rustPackages_1_45 | 01:30:09 |
| legendofmiracles | Is it off the table to bring it back if needed? | 04:48:02 |
 andi- | legendofmiracles: why is it needed and why does the rust project fail on newer compilers? (I've seen such issues myself but usually the rust community tries to avoid that situation) | 14:48:16 |

| legendofmiracles | How does nix handle cargo patches, like here: https://github.com/a-b-street/abstreet/blob/4717c3c8f7072cd0efc6c49403f724b95f8738fe/Cargo.toml#L39 | 16:44:56 |

 Yuka (she/her) | If you use buildRustPackage, It mostly doesn't interact with them | 16:45:35 |
| legendofmiracles | Because it's in the lockfile? | 16:46:00 |
| Yuka (she/her) | If you use cargoSha256, then Nix doesn't care about the lockfile or Cargo.toml at all. It just runs cargo vendor, and then later cargo build with the vendored sources. | 16:47:21 |
| Yuka (she/her) | If you use the importCargoLock / cargoLock.lockFile thing, the cargo vendor part is replaced by a Nix derivation that downloads all the things in the lockfile, which is just the same as what cargo vendor would do | 16:48:41 |
| Yuka (she/her) | * If you use the importCargoLock / cargoLock.lockFile thing, the cargo vendor part is replaced by a Nix derivation that depends on fetchurl/fetchgit downloads of all the things in the lockfile, which is just the same as what cargo vendor would do | 16:49:04 |
| Yuka (she/her) | Either way the patch entries in Cargo.toml should be honored | 16:49:19 |
| jonringer | if you do need to apply patches before vendoring, you can declare them with cargoPatches | 16:49:21 |
| Yuka (she/her) | I don't think the question was about patching Cargo.toml / Cargo.lock | 16:50:13 |

| legendofmiracles | The reason I asked is because of these errors | 16:50:31 |
| legendofmiracles | but now that I look at it again, it doesn't seem to have anything to do with nix | 16:51:15 |
| Yuka (she/her) | maybe the lockfile is outdated? | 16:51:22 |
| Yuka (she/her) | or some git branch/tag was yanked? | 16:51:30 |
| legendofmiracles | Or commit | 16:51:37 |
| legendofmiracles | I'll play around a bit, thanks for the hint | 16:51:52 |
