@room The next Nix hour is in 1h20! This week we're again writing packages. You can watch the Nix Hour in this live stream. If you have any questions about this, either ask them beforehand in this issue, or use the live chat 😄 * I have a question for a package I'm working on: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/325824
This is a web-frontend (client) for a server application that you can self-host.
Upstream specifies that you can set an environment variable for the build, this "bakes in" the endpoint where the client application will then look for the backend.
Upstream built instructions say:
NEXT_PUBLIC_ENTE_ENDPOINT=http://mydomain.tld:8080 yarn build:photos
How would I package that for nixpkgs? an override? Not sure what the cleanest way would be to do this so the user can set the endpoint easily and it causes as little rebuilds as possible

 Viorel-Cătălin Răpițeanu | The writing packages hours were really amazing! It's always nice to see how a Nix developer navigates through the code and tries to obtain a workable solution for a specific application. From what I can tell, a significant percent of the motivation to learn and use Nix is specifically to learn how to package a specific app that I'm using and it's not available yet in nixpkgs. | 09:33:34 |
