* README for D related dev shells with overlays
** in emacs write (tangle) this (org) file for its output
This org file: "dlang-nix-flakes.org" when using emacs and saved (tangling output)
it creates and writes output to the subdirectory path:
..
and writes output there, this is to prevent accidentally writing over anything
in the directory in which the dlang-nix-flakes.org file happens to be saved.
.. becomes your nix flake work directory.
** dlang-nix-flakes.org
the file dlang-nix-flakes.org contains nix related files for producing more
recent versions of the dlang compiler and build tools: ldc, dub and dtools, than
exist in nixpkgs at the time of publishing, in some cases with additional fixes.
.envrc files
nix control files
- default.nix
- shell.nix
- flake.nix
nix overlays for (updates nixpkgs, more recent versions of):
- ldc ( 1.30.0 -> 1.37.0 )
- dub ( 1.23.0 -> 1.36.0 ) [for nix versions 1.31.0 ... 1.33.0 broken]
- dtools ( 2.095.1 -> 2.103.1 )
- dmd ( 2.100.2 -> 2.108.0 )
- gdc [not yet available]
(updates nixpkgs circa 2023-05-12)

not get things right REVIEW
- dmd on nixos FAILS to build (my working projects), appears not to find parts
of itself

** nixpkgs
It is possible to work directly against a local copy of nixpkgs. To do so you
would clone nixpkgs and point to the local nixpkgs as your build source.
git clone --depth=1 --branch master https://github.com/nixos/nixpkgs nixpkgs
- ./nixpkgs/pkgs/development/compilers/ldc
- ./nixpkgs/pkgs/development/compilers/dmd
- ./nixpkgs/pkgs/development/tools/build-managers/dub
- ./nixpkgs/pkgs/development/tools/dtools
- ./nixpkgs/pkgs/development/compilers/gcc
Note the overlays if copied to the nixpkgs path locations should work as they do
in the overlay, with a pointer to the cloned nixpkgs as nixpkgs repository
source. In fact the starting point for the overlays was to take verbatim what
was in nixpkgs and then to update and fix where necessary those packages.
It is possible to compare the changes made by the overlays here directly against
what is currently available in nixpkgs.
