 anstylian | * in general, can I get the package version, from Cargo.toml? (not related to the previews question) | 09:48:43 |
 Alyssa Ross | Does anybody actually use custom rust.platform? It doesn't look like the custom sysroot ever gets its Cargo hash bumped

 FliegendeWurst | In reply to @angelos_:matrix.org
in general, can I get the package version, from Cargo.toml? (not related to the previews question) Yes, that file should have a version = "..." line | 10:34:34 |
| FliegendeWurst | If you want the version in Nix code you need to import the toml and access package.version | 10:35:15 |
| anstylian | FliegendeWurst: do you have an example of that? | 11:43:21 |
 Robert Rose | Liike this:
file = builtins.readFile ./Cargo.toml;
cargo = builtins.fromTOML file;
version = cargo.package.version;
or use inherit (cargo.package) version;

 Ilan Joselevich (Kranzes) | I'm going to PR a new rust package and I just wanted to know if I should be using useFetchCargoVendor? | 17:11:49 |
| Ilan Joselevich (Kranzes) | cc. Alyssa Ross | 17:11:54 |
| Alyssa Ross | yes | 17:12:26 |
| Ilan Joselevich (Kranzes) | even if there are no git deps? | 17:12:34 |
| Alyssa Ross | fetchCargoTarball will be deprecated this staging cycle | 17:12:40 |
| Alyssa Ross | it's no longer reproducible even without git deps as of Cargo 1.84 | 17:12:57 |
| Ilan Joselevich (Kranzes) | wonderful | 17:13:04 |
| Alyssa Ross | so it's time for it to go | 17:13:14 |
| Ilan Joselevich (Kranzes) | are there any other benefits to useFetchCargoVendor? | 17:13:40 |
| Alyssa Ross | it will never change output hash due to a rust update, and we can allow git deps with it | 17:15:44 |
| Alyssa Ross | i think that's it | 17:15:50 |
| Ilan Joselevich (Kranzes) | not faster or anything? | 17:15:55 |
| Alyssa Ross | it's actually currently slower | 17:16:04 |
| Alyssa Ross | but that's already been improved in staging | 17:16:22 |

|  PopeRigby changed their display name from Pope_Rigby to PopeRigby. | 04:14:29 |
 raitobezarius | @qyliss:fairydust.space: hmm do you have a suggestion to reduce the dependencies for useFetchCargoVendor ? (Aka the Nix dependency) | 10:24:47 |
| Alyssa Ross | Implement nix-prefetch-git without nix | 10:25:48 |
| Alyssa Ross | but there's already allowGitDependencies | 10:26:00 |
| Alyssa Ross | the nix dependency is optional | 10:26:12 |
 Toma | Someone could reimplement fetchCargoVendor in a language, like C, but that would only get rid of the python dep.
Reducing nix-prefetch-git's deps is the optimal solution. | 13:14:26 |
