| Hannes | Hi, can someone tell what is the preferred way of packaging a Node.js CLI in nixpkgs? Should I add it to pkgs/development/node-packages/node-packages.json or use buildNpmPackage? | 02:14:21 |
 emily | latter | 02:16:10 |
| Hannes | Thanks, I'm glad because I tried the first method and it wasn't working 😅 | 02:16:47 |
| Hannes | Okay, followup question, the package I'm building has an npm run build script, but it's just defined as npm run lint && npm run test, should I set dontNpmBuild = true so that nix doesn't lint and test the package every time it builds? | 02:39:45 |
| Hannes | Here's the PR for the package if anyone has suggestions :) https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/374206 | 04:26:42 |

| maralorn | Hey there. I am trying to build https://github.com/gristlabs/grist-core bad sadly I have no clue what I am doing. | 14:57:06 |
| maralorn | From perusing nixpkgs my take away was that the current best approach are yarn* hooks. | 14:57:50 |
| maralorn | So I copied the element-call derivation which seems to be doing exactly that. | 14:58:12 |
| maralorn | Now I get this error: | 14:58:26 |

| maralorn | If there are any docs about how to do this properly please let me know. | 14:59:53 |
| maralorn | The error looks surprisingliy like https://github.com/nix-community/yarn2nix/issues/111 | 15:12:27 |
| maralorn | That url is pretty clearly wrong. | 15:12:44 |

| @sfkvso:matrix.org | Hey, is there a recommended way to develop a npm/nodejs app now ? (node2nix and npmlock2nix seem unmaintained, and this post https://discourse.nixos.org/t/how-to-use-importnpmlock/53878/2 has no response) thank you all | 19:26:32 |
| @sfkvso:matrix.org | ok buildNpmPackage seems to do the job | 20:21:01 |

| avocadoom | Hey, anyone here ever experienced issues with Vite or especially Astro not hot-reloading when a nix flake generated symlink (say a .pre-commit-config.yaml for example) is present? Every attempt to tell vite to ignore this file fails unfortunately. When I delete said symlinks HMR works again immediately. | 00:39:01 |
 Winter | sounds like a bug in Vite or Astro (or more specifically the dependency they both use for HMR) | 00:52:25 |
| avocadoom | Just tried to reproduce this in a small VIte project, guess thats an Astro Bug | 00:59:22 |
| avocadoom | I cant reproduce it in Vite | 00:59:29 |
| avocadoom | Well, I guess I'll open an issue in the Astro project then | 00:59:53 |
| avocadoom | Btw. since describing it is rather unspecific. If you want to reproduce:
git clone --branch reproduce-symlink-bug https://github.com/NixOS/nixos-homepage.git
It does HMR when inputsFrom = [ config.pre-commit.devShell ]; is commented out and .pre-commit-config.yaml is not present and it fails otherwise.
I will try to test if I can get choickbar (Vites HMR file watcher) to fail as well, but I don't have high hopes since I cannot reproduce this in Vite either.
