@drupol:matrix.orgPolTBH, loophp/rust-shell is very handy for me and my colleagues to quickly hack with Rust and Idea Ultimate.17:46:12
@mixedCase:matrix.orgAndrés RodríguezWell, don't know about fully replacing Naersk, but I just tried it out and my project builds just fine with this instead of Naersk, so I'm going to stick with it at least for the moment :D Thanks again!17:54:53
@mikroskeem:d0.eeMarknaersk and rustPlatform.buildRustPackage both work fine, just bit different18:24:41
@mikroskeem:d0.eeMarknaersk is similar to carnix, but uses IFD instead of nix codegen iirc - both download crates using nix18:25:25
@mikroskeem:d0.eeMarkrustPlatform.buildRustPackage vendors everything into one big tarball18:25:47
@mikroskeem:d0.eeMarkif you have many rust projects sharing same dependencies, you could benefit more from naersk18:26:19
@mikroskeem:d0.eeMarkbut then again storage is somewhat cheap18:26:41
@jonringer:matrix.orgjonringer If it's out-of-tree code, you can do rustPlatform.buildRustPackage + cargoFile, so you don't need FOds 18:45:04
@jonringer:matrix.orgjonringer the main thing with nixpkgs is that it had restrict-eval, so you can't do something like https://github.com/jonringer/nix-template/blob/4d852a1f72b5a8c0d79b8e6b7d5809c66414c12d/nix/nix-template.nix#L8 18:45:52

Is there any "low barrier of entry" flake template one can utilize to get a flaked rust nix project where

  1. direnv/nix develop works - and appends to $PATH, as opposed to overwriting it? (my experience with naersk)
  2. Gives (maybe even documents) an easy-to-find list where one can add nix packages such as cargo-edit?

I've been looking at the below, and I feel like they're out of my competency/comfort zone:

  • https://github.com/yusdacra/nix-cargo-integration
  • https://github.com/numtide/devshell
  • https://github.com/nmattia/naersk
  • https://github.com/loophp/rust-shell/

@tomberek:matrix.orgtomberek x10an14: it's not a template, but I've been hacking on this project and it's been nice, should be easy to adopt. https://github.com/kamadorueda/alejandra/blob/main/flake.nix 14:54:14

Thanks! I'll take a closer look later today =)

This is where I ended up meanwhile after lots of bashing forehead against the dreaded learning curve's wall: https://git.sr.ht/~x10an14/pass-steam/tree/main/item/flake.nix
(Not sure I really understand it yet, but it works for most. Just breaks bash-completion unfortunately).

@x10an14:matrix.orgx10an14 Anyone here willing to help me along debugging/figuring out Windows cross-compile? https://paste.sr.ht/~x10an14/1f03145beafb08f682f88b414bf174a7c2491504 I've searched and found some tips at both fenix and naersk, with the respective fixes/suggestions mentioned in my flake.nix to no avail =/ 14:47:12
@tomberek:matrix.orgtomberek x10an14: i was going to have some office hours this afternoon and also working on getting rust to cross compile something to musl. Haven't done windows yet, but would be good to clarify. 18:09:08
@tomberek:matrix.orgtomberek x10an14: available? 22:27:35

In an hour or two? Not right now =( Thanks for reaching out though!
22:28:54
@x10an14:matrix.orgx10an14Are the office hours gonna be updated here (or somewhere else) moving forwards? https://discourse.nixos.org/t/nix-office-hours/11945/4522:29:33
@tomberek:matrix.orgtomberekNew format and announcements have been going here: https://discourse.nixos.org/t/general-nix-office-hours/1501922:32:51
