How to get the name from a nixpkgs derivation in a nix expression to be used by nix-shell? -


i'm writing .nix expression used nix-shell. i'm not sure how that. note not on nixos, don't think relevant.

the particular example i'm looking @ want this version-dependent name looks like:

  idea-ultimate = buildidea rec {     name = "idea-ultimate-${version}";     version = "2017.2.2"; /* updated script */     description = "integrated development environment (ide) jetbrains, requires paid license";     license = stdenv.lib.licenses.unfree;     src = fetchurl {       url = "https://download.jetbrains.com/idea/ideaiu-${version}-no-jdk.tar.gz";       sha256 = "b8eb9d612800cc896eb6b6fbefbf9f49d92d2350ae1c3c4598e5e12bf93be401"; /* updated script */     };     wmclass = "jetbrains-idea";     update-channel = "idea_release";   };

my nix expression following:

let   pkgs = import <nixpkgs> {};   stdenv = pkgs.stdenv;   # idea_name = assert pkgs.jetbrains.idea-ultimate.name != ""; pkgs.jetbrains.idea-ultimate.name; in rec {   scalaenv = stdenv.mkderivation rec {     name = "scala-env";     builder = "./scala-build.sh";     shellhook = ''     alias cls=clear     '';     clang_path = pkgs.clang + "/bin/clang";     clangpp_path = pkgs.clang + "/bin/clang++";     # bug in nixpkgs openjdk (#29151) makes resort zulu openjdk idea:     # idea_jdk = pkgs.openjdk + "/lib/openjdk";     # path = "${pkgs.jetbrains.idea-ultimate}/${idea_name}/bin:$path";     idea_jdk = /usr/lib/jvm/zulu-8-amd64;     # idea_jdk = /opt/zulu8.23.0.3-jdk8.0.144-linux_x64;     # idea_jdk = /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64;     buildinputs = pkgs; [       ammonite       boehmgc       clang       emacs       jetbrains.idea-ultimate       less       libunwind       openjdk       re2       sbt       stdenv       unzip       zlib     ];   }; }

i have commented out setting path depends on getting idea_name in let-clause. interesting side note, is, not fail if leave uncommented causes bizarre error when executing nix-shell not being able execute bash. i've tried more simple case of let idea_name = pkgs.jetbrains.idea-ultimate.name; fails later on when idea_name used in setting path since idea_name ends being undefined.

update:

i began exploring nix-instantiate, derivation of interest seems empty:

[nix-shell:/nix/store]$ nix-instantiate --eval --xml -e "((import <nixpkgs> {}).callpackage ./3hk87pqgl2qdqmskxbhy23cyr24q8g6s-nixpkgs-18.03pre114739.d0d905668c/nixpkgs/pkgs/applications/editors/jetbrains { }).idea-ultimate";     <?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?> <expr>   <derivation>     <repeated />   </derivation> </expr>

if intent idea-ultimate nix-shell environment, include package buildinputs. see it's included, should present in path.

btw, can extend shellhook , export path , other variables rather there, have full bash. why bash? less copying. when specify

idea_jdk = /usr/lib/jvm/zulu-8-amd64;

in nix, file /usr/lib/jvm/zulu-8-amd64 get's copied nix store , idea_jdk set point file in /nix/store. intent?

regarding nix-instantiate:

$ nix-instantiate --eval -e 'with import <nixpkgs>{}; idea.pycharm-community.outpath'                                                                                    "/nix/store/71jk0spr30rm4wsihjwbb1hcwwvzqr4k-pycharm-community-2017.1"

but still have remove doublequotes (https://gist.github.com/danbst/a9fc068ff26e31d88de9709965daa2bd)

also, nitpick, assert pkgs.jetbrains.idea-ultimate.name != ""; can dropped it's impossible have empty derivation name in nix.

and nitpick. you'll find incovenient launch ide shell every time. seems idea specify, package used development, nix-shell doesn't work non-cli applications. not mention occasional problems nix gc , nix-shell. you'd better install ide globally or per-user, better long-term solution.

[addendum]

you looking (dev-environment.nix):

with import <nixpkgs> { };  buildenv {   name = "my-super-dev-env";   paths = [       #emacs       nano       idea.pycharm-community   ];   buildinputs = [ makewrapper ];   postbuild = ''     f in $(ls -d $out/bin/*);       wrapprogram $f \         --set idea_jdk "/path/to/zulu-jdk" \         --set clang_path ... \         --set clancpp_path ...     done   ''; }

which install using nix-env -if ./dev-environment.nix. wrap programs env vars, without polluting workspace (you can pollute further using nix-shell shell hook, if want).

hi i'm using ngfor create set of 3 slides while starting in middle i'm guaranteed able slide left or right on start. when slide right can simple listen reachedend , push slide array i'm looping. but have problem adding slide beginning. if same above , use e.g. array.unshift() or spread add item beginning, view think it's on position 0 , snaps view new slide. the code below work animates slide change index 1. slide = [0,1,2] //example loop slidechanged(event) { if(this.slides.isbeginning()){ this.slide = [this.slide[0]-1, ...this.slide]; this.slides.update(); this.slides.slideto(1) } } <ion-slides [initialslide]="1" (ionslidedidchange)="slidechanged($event)"> <ion-slide *ngfor="let item of slide"> <h1>slide {{item}}</h1> </ion-slide> </ion-slides> any appreciated! you can using ionslidenextend , ionslideprevend events slides . please

minify - Minimizing css files -

i want know how css files can minimized. currently, using external sites css minifier compress css files. however, after removing whitespaces, comments, etc, file sizes reduced 10-15%. how frameworks bootstrap manage make minimized versions kilobytes. as example, css is: body { background-color: #ff0; } the reduction goes 28 bytes 22 bytes other css files have lot more characters still smaller this. actually minifying code means it's remove thing code white space characters new line characters comments block delimiters it reduces amount of code has transferred on web , speed site load fastly.but unreadable format.

Add a dynamic header in angular 2 http provider -

i have http interceptor built via tutorial https://scotch.io/@kashyapmukkamala/using-http-interceptor-with-angular2 the problem need have dynamic header changes automatically once changes 'mode' in app. service able tell interceptor change header, or have interceptor pull header (which string)from service each request. able throwing away patch method, call http.patch('new header string') set header string. call in service controls 'mode' setting. wondering if there way interceptor pull recent value service each request or if can add method http provider via interceptor? i've tried call service in interceptor each request returns undefined. because creating new instance of service or copying value before service fired , loaded/changed data. i don't want pass header string every http provider call because defeats purpose of having interceptor, id able set once changes or have provider fetch service before makes request. tl;dr : need add autom
