@grahamc:nixos.org | Brad Bondurant: we made this a bit ago to make that easier, maybe it'll help you: https://github.com/DeterminateSystems/update-flake-lock | 15:15:19 |
Brad Bondurant | grahamc (he/him): Thank you! Funnily enough I had just settled on a very similar solution (my repos are on GitLab) and this'll be a great reference to have! | 15:37:23 |
Brad Bondurant | In reply to @bradbqc1:matrix.org +1 for extra-sandbox-paths, also check out buildFHSUserEnv for running binaries that expect FHS paths to be present. Here's an example environment for Vivado https://git.m-labs.hk/M-Labs/nix-scripts/src/branch/master/artiq-fast/vivado.nix Leon: just wanted to make sure you see this since I suspect there's a good chance you're using Vivado and there are other nix files in this repo that do exactly what it sounds like you're trying to do -- they build the bitstreams using Vivado and then publish them in a binary cache which users can then pull from without needing any Vivado stuff | 15:42:19 |
@leons:is.currently.online | Brad Bondurant: that's a pretty good pointer, thanks! | 15:43:38 |
@leons:is.currently.online | In case you care, this is my Vivado package currently: https://git.sr.ht/~lschuermann/nix-litex/tree/main/item/pkgs/vivado/vivado-2020_1.nix | 15:44:42 |
@leons:is.currently.online | It's been working well for me, and has less quirks that one might think, but yeah it's a slight hassle to get the installer into the Nix store and has the redistribution / cache issues where you really don't want Xilinx to get angry at you for mirroring their software :) | 15:46:09 |
Brad Bondurant | Oh wow, you wrote a whole derivation for Vivado -- impressive lol. We just use the FHS environment to run the provided installer (and resulting binaries) and then extra-sandbox-paths to make it usable from within a build | 15:48:50 |
@leons:is.currently.online | Yeah, that is indeed much saner, but spending 2 days running the Vivado installer in a Nix derivation until it works tracks for me :D it's originally based on https://github.com/lukaslaobeyer/nix-fpgapkgs | 15:55:11 |
