 damccull | If it helps, it's specifically crashing on dioxis-cli
these 3 derivations will be built:

| damccull | Ooh, ok. Grok was useful this time. LLMs are starting to sometimes understand nix better. By having the dioxus-cli follow both nixpkgs and rust-overlay, it forced it to use my preferred versions rather than the version that comes with dioxus-cli. I guess I should report to dioxus their flake seems broken :D | 18:50:12 |
| damccull | Well, it's still compiliing so no guarantee yet, but I'll let you all know. | 18:50:45 |
| damccull | worked! | 18:55:38 |

| vivekanandan_ks | Hi All
Yesterday, I started looking for setting up an environment to learn rust😅.
I dwelled on setting up the environment and basic build through the help of some wiki and mainly vimjoyer's video.
Here's a hello world template of mine.
https://github.com/vivekanandan-ks/ksv-rust-try/blob/main/flake.nix
I have these configured:
Devshells :
- using nixpkgs and cargo, rustc etc (only stable from nixpkgs)
- using fenix for the toolchain (since this can be used for stable, beta, nightly releases)
Packages:
- plain: pkgs.rustPlatform.buildRustPackage
- naersk
- fenix + plain
- fenix + naersk
Any suggestion or improvements over this please😅

 K900 | Honestly if your goal is to learn Rust, just nix-shell -p rustc cargo | 07:58:31 |
| vivekanandan_ks | My goal is to package mainly, also wanted to learn rust on the way😅 | 08:03:36 |
| K900 | If you want to package for nixpkgs, the only thing you can use is rustPlatform | 08:04:12 |
| K900 | No out of tree dependencies are allowed | 08:04:24 |

My goal is to package mainly, also wanted to learn rust on the way😅 then it's just a matter of creating a package with rustPlatform.buildRustPackage and a devshell with inputsFrom = [thatPackage]; nativeBuildInputs = [rust-analyzer]; and a formatter of your choice (rustfmt or genemichaels) | 08:12:13 |
| vivekanandan_ks | Looks like there's more for me to learn. But it somewhat feels easier than the rabbit hole I went for python packaging in nix🥲
Looks like rust toolchain ecosystem is better
