I tried using pinix but formatting was super off, and this is the only other nix progress tool that I could find :/ Well, there is not really much nom can do about the integration. And I don’t see it as my job to write those integrations for every tool in the community. | 16:16:20 |
 xsova | That’s fair- I just don’t super understand how it works/how different it is from nixos-rebuild. I can try to do it, though- I just wanted to make sure I wasn’t missing something | 16:17:24 |
| maralorn | Normally tools like darwin-rebuild don’t have a lot of logic, so changing/replacing it to get it to give the correct output shouldn’t be that hard. | 16:17:23 |
| maralorn | Still don’t understand how you got pinix and darwin-rebuild to work at all. | 16:22:56 |
| maralorn | It does not look like pinix can parse anything other than the json output. So somehow you must have succeeded at making darwin-rebuild produce json? | 16:23:33 |
| xsova | One of the options to run it is running pinix and then the normal command so pinix darwin-rebuild switch instead of using it as a drop in for nix/nixos-rebuild | 16:24:04 |
| maralorn | Yeah, but then it won’t get any useful information and probably just pass through the given build logs. | 16:25:11 |
| xsova | ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I'm not sure, I'll try to implement it though, I liked nom's output better since formatting was better haha | 16:36:53 |
| maralorn | I will have to inspect pinix more and steal their best ideas. | 16:49:13 |
| maralorn | Can’t let my Haskell app become the victim of a rust rewrite. 😈 | 16:49:41 |
| maralorn | But well, for that I need to allocate any time to working on nom. 😄 | 16:50:22 |
| xsova | Oh it’s written in Haskell- time to learn a new language xd | 16:50:37 |
| maralorn | Yeah, no one believed me that a Haskell program can have side effects so I wrote a program, which basically only does IO. 🤡 | 16:53:06 |
