Python libraries or modules now have an attribute `pythonModule = interpreter;` to indicate they provide Python modules for the specified `interpreter`. The package set provides the following helper functions: - hasPythonModule: Check whether a derivation provides a Python module. - requiredPythonModules: Recurse into a list of Python modules, returning all Python modules that are required. - makePythonPath: Create a PYTHONPATH from a list of Python modules. Also included in this commit is: - disabledIf: Helper function for disabling non-buildPythonPackage functions.
Nixpkgs is a collection of packages for the Nix package manager. It is periodically built and tested by the Hydra build daemon as so-called channels. To get channel information via git, add nixpkgs-channels as a remote:
% git remote add channels git://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels.git
For stability and maximum binary package support, it is recommended to maintain
custom changes on top of one of the channels, e.g. nixos-17.09 for the latest
release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-17.09
For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.
NixOS Linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/ folder.
