 c3n21 | Yes I think that perhaps it should be wiser to package it for pnpm for now and use the unstable versioning till 7.x is released.
Meanwhile I will raise the topic about pnp

 Cathal | Wrapping node packages is fine, here's an example of the Prisma package doing it: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/pkgs/by-name/pr/prisma/package.nix#L83-L87 | 17:00:52 |

| DolceTriade | Hello, I've been searching for a way to override the version of nodejs when using buildNpmPackage, but when I do this using the ways I know of, it always also includes the original version of the nodejs in the closure. For example, I'm trying to build mongosh with a newer version of nodejs, so I'm doing something like buildNpmPackage { ... nodejs = nodejs_23; };. Is there a way to ensure the original version of nodejs is not included? | 23:17:59 |
| DolceTriade | I've also tried buildNpmPackage.override { nodejs = nodejs_23; }. And also tried to use a nixpkgs overlay to override nodejs = nodejs_23 | 23:19:15 |
| DolceTriade | Redacted or Malformed Event | 23:19:21 |
| DolceTriade | Actually I think the overlay method works. I just had to overlay buildPackages instead of pkgs... Now to figure out how to remove nodejs-source from the closure | 23:25:46 |

 Winter | i'm not sure what you mean by this -- (buildNpmPackage.override { nodejs = ...; }) { ... } should work just fine | 00:22:34 |
| Winter | i'm not sure what you mean by the buildPackages part -- (buildNpmPackage.override { nodejs = ...; }) { ... } should work just fine | 00:22:44 |
| DolceTriade | Dunno...
buildPackages' = buildPackages.extend (self: super: {nodejs = nodejs_23;});
buildNpmPackage23 = buildNpmPackage.override {
buildPackages = buildPackages';
};
Ended up with something like this and this seemed to work. There are probably better ways to do this 🤷
| 22:37:02 |
| DolceTriade | I think I traced this down to npm-hooks or something | 22:37:19 |
| DolceTriade | We don't properly passthrough nodejs down there | 22:37:30 |

 @rosssmyth:matrix.org | For a package I maintain it requires a binary to be in a specific part of its project directory. Previously I copied it into the directory. I am trying to instead symlink it so that there isn't a duplicate binary around. But it seems that however npm decides what parts of the project directory are put in "node_modules/@project/...", the symlink is not preserved. I've tried passing npmFlags = [ "--preserve-symlinks" ]; but that did not seem to change anything. | 22:31:48 |
| @rosssmyth:matrix.org | Anyone know what's going on? | 22:31:55 |

| @neobrain:matrix.org | Hi! I'm trying to use fetchYarnDeps for a new derivation but yarn install --offline keeps complaining that it can't make a request in offline mode for packages that clearly should be in the offline store.
Is there anything non-obvious that one needs to do to make this work besides the yarn config set yarn-offline-mirror ${theFetchedYarnDeps} line? | 14:47:48 |

| @neobrain:matrix.org | oh gosh, I think I finally got it. Seems like additionally calling fixup-yarn-lock yarn.lock is needed to make it work. Gosh I've been fighting with this all afternoon D: | 15:05:45 |
