This file contains a summary of changes to Haskell.nix and nix-tools that will impact users.

July 21, 2020

  • Removed components.all, use symlinkJoin on components.exes or shellFor if you need a shell.
  • Added components arguemnt to shellFor.

July 21, 2020

  • Added GHC 8.8.4 and replaced 8.8.3 in tests and as the ghc used to build nix-tools for stack projects.

July 20, 2020

  • Changed haskell-nix.roots and p.roots to single derivations.

July 8, 2020

  • Removed sources.nixpkgs-default, use sources.nixpkgs instead.
  • Removed ./nixpkgs directory, use (import ./. {}).sources or ./nix/sources.nix instead.
  • Removes V1 interface for details on how to fix old code see: input-output-hk#709
  • Removed defaultCompilerNixName.
  • cabalProject, cabalProject', hackage-project and hackage-package now require a compiler-nix-name argument.
  • haskell-nix.tool and .tools now require a compiler-nix-name argument. New functions p.tool and p.tools (where p is a project) do not. Like shellFor { tools = ... } they will use the compiler nix name from the project (including stack projects where it is derived from the resolver).
  • haskell-nix.alex and haskell-nix.happy have been removed. Use p.tool "alex" "3.2.5" or shellFor { tools = { alex = "3.2.5"; } }.
  • haskell-nix.nix-tools -> haskell-nix.nix-tools.ghc883 (it includes the hpack exe now).
  • haskell-nix.cabal-install -> p.tool "cabal" "3.2.0.0" or shellFor { tools = { cabal = "3.2.0.0"; } }
  • haskell-nix.haskellNixRoots -> haskell-nix.roots ghc883 or p.roots

June 25, 2020

  • Haddock docs are now built in their own derivation when needed (not as part of the component build). They should build automatically when something (such as shellFor) attempts to accesses the .doc attribute of component.

December 27, 2019

  • Fix overlays/bootstrap.nix to provide LLVM 6, not LLVM 5, to ghc-8.6.X compilers.

November 18, 2019

  • Changed the cleanSourceHaskell to accept an attrset of src and (optional) name parameters. This allows you to keep the source derivation name constant, so that your builds are always cached. Usage of cleanSourceHaskell will need to be updated.

October 12, 2019

  • shellFor no longer sets CABAL_CONFIG by default. This avoids surprising users, but means that Cabal may select a plan which is different to your Haskell.nix package set. If you would like the old behaviour, use shellFor { exactDeps = true; }.

August 9, 2019

June 21, 2019

  • Add ghcWithPackages and ghcWithHoogle to hsPkgs (documentation.
  • Benchmark components can now build successfully.
  • Reduced the closure bloat of nix-tools, and added closure size limit to CI.
  • Added more reference documentation and set up auto-generated documentation for Module Options.
  • Miscellaneous bug fixes.

June 7, 2019

  • Several additions to the documentation.
    • More information about getting nix-tools, Haskell.nix, pinning.
    • Updates the stack-to-nix and cabal-to-nix guides.
    • Adds a section on development environments.
    • Adds a little information about cross compilation.
    • Adds a (partially complete) reference section (command line manuals, library reference).
    • Symlinks the changelog into the documentation pages.

May 29, 2019

  • Added shellFor function to package set.

May 28, 2019

  • Added snaphots and haskellPackages attributes to the Haskell.nix top-level.

May 22, 2019

  • Add the cleanSourceHaskell utility function to the Haskell.nix top-level.

May 21, 2019

  • Add the callCabalProjectToNix function, which uses "import from derivation" (IFD) so that nix-tools doesn't need to be run manually.
  • The hackage.nix update process has changed, so that Cabal index state hashes are also included in the generated repo.

May 20, 2019

  • Remove Travis CI in favour of Buildkite.

May 17, 2019

  • Add the callStackToNix function, which uses "import from derivation" (IFD) so that stack-to-nix doesn't need to be run manually.

Mar 15, 2019

  • overlays was renamed to extras in #79 to prevent confusion between the notion of Nix overlays.

    Therefore plan-pkgs and stack-pkgs as generated by plan-to-nix and stack-to-nix will expose extras instead of overlay. Similarly mkStackPkgSet, mkPkgSet and mkCabalProjectPkgSet take a pkg-def-extras instead of pkg-def-overlay argument. If you are using iohk-nix, the iohk-overlay was parameter was renamed to iohk-extras.
