Infinidoge 🏳️⚧️ | @msgilligan:matrix.org Approved membership to NixOS/Java, enjoy the pings | 06:13:09 |
msgilligan | Oh, wow. I didn't expect that to happen so quickly. I hope I am able to help. Thanks! | 06:15:03 |
Infinidoge 🏳️⚧️ | You've been doing a lot of legwork recently, and there is no reason to be particularly choosy about who gets pinged,
Anyone who wants to sign up for the Sisyphean task can have in aa for as I'm concerned | 06:16:19 |

msgilligan | British Summer TIme? | 06:18:59 |
Infinidoge 🏳️⚧️ | Yeah | 06:19:09 |
msgilligan | Vacation right? You're US-based I thought. | 06:19:32 |
Infinidoge 🏳️⚧️ | Last day on my family's Scotland trip, flying back today | 06:19:37 |
msgilligan | Nice! | 06:19:51 |

msgilligan | graalvmPackages.graalvm-ce, graalvmPackages.graalvm-oracle, and jetbrains.jdk are currently commented out because I'm not handling sub-packages yet. | 06:36:31 |
Infinidoge 🏳️⚧️ | Makes sense, looks good so far
Could look for the recurse for derivations flag | 06:37:50 |

msgilligan | #!/bin/sh
nix-instantiate --eval --strict --json "$(dirname "$0")"/jdk-dashboard.nix
| 06:38:54 |
msgilligan | This is totally uncharted territory for me. | 06:39:38 |
msgilligan | Wondering if I should create an issue and/or a draft PR. I think the issue might be a good place to discuss requirements and features in a way that can get people involved. | 06:41:55 |
msgilligan | I was thinking it might make sense to define some kind of JDK specific metadata that could live in the root directory of each JDK package-set. | 06:42:47 |
msgilligan | For example, I currently have definitions of which versions are supposed to be supported by each JDK and whether their is a default (e.g. corretto doesn't exist, but zulu defaults to zulu21. | 06:45:41 |

msgilligan | I'd rather have a list of JDK root paths and query them for metadata (perhaps with defaults for package-sets that haven't implemented the metadata yet) | 06:48:05 |

I don't know what this means.
| 06:48:31 |
msgilligan | Currently jdk-dashboard.nix and jdk-dashboard.sh are in nixpkgs/maintainers/scripts but I'm not sure that is the right place. | 06:49:59 |

I don't know what this means.
Generally on sets of packages, there is a specific attr (I forget which exactly) that is set to true to flag that functions should look through the attribute set for derivations | 06:51:18 |
