 Carl Thomé | Any easy way of setting up an ad-hoc Python environment with a few packages on the command line with nix run
I'm able to get nix run nixpkgs#jupyter working but can't get NumPy into a kernel without writing a shell.nix or similar first. Was thinking nix run 'nixpkgs#python3.withPackages(ps: with ps; [torch])' could work but it doesn't seem to.
| 00:19:12 |
| Carl Thomé | Or like if it was possible to nest Python packages with nix shell but they don't end up in the same site-packages. | 00:21:14 |
| Carl Thomé | Guess this is one area where nix-shell is still better?
nix-shell -p 'python310.withPackages (p: [ p.numpy ])' does what I expect.

 @petrichor:envs.net | don't know if this is idiomatically correct, but nix develop --impure --expr "(import <nixpkgs> {}).python310.withPackages (p: [p.numpy])" env seems to work as intended | 07:37:30 |
| @petrichor:envs.net | --impure is required because of the reference to <nixpkgs> which i think will be the channel rather than the flake registry entry | 07:38:31 |
| @petrichor:envs.net | nix shell works without specifying env on the end | 07:42:58 |
| @petrichor:envs.net | and you can use the flake registry entry like this, but it's more verbose:
nix shell --impure --expr '(builtins.getFlake "nixpkgs").legacyPackages.x86_64-linux.python3.withPackages (p: [p.numpy p.seaborn])'
| 07:44:39 |
| @petrichor:envs.net | maybe this is slightly better?
nix shell --impure --expr '(import (builtins.getFlake "nixpkgs") {}).python3.withPackages (p: [p.numpy])'
| 07:47:04 |
| @petrichor:envs.net | * and you can use the flake registry entry like this, but it's more verbose:

| 07:47:16 |
| @petrichor:envs.net | * maybe this is slightly better because you don't have to remember what system you're using?
nix shell --impure --expr '(import (builtins.getFlake "nixpkgs") {}).python3.withPackages (p: [p.numpy])'

 tomberek | I know there are reasons this is imperfect, but i played with allowing a dot-separated mechanism to compose withPackages: nix shell github:tomberek/-#python3With.numpy.requests -c python -c 'import numpy;print(0.1)' it does support tab-completion! | 20:33:36 |

 Bruno Rodrigues | In reply to @brodriguesco:matrix.org
fellow Nixers, I'm a beginner and started a series of blog posts that might interest some of you. It focuses on R but I believe a lot of what I describe could be used for any language friends, I've now published part 3: https://www.brodrigues.co/blog/2023-07-30-nix_for_r_part3/ | 21:39:50 |
