NixGuix lister
|
||||
==============
|
||||
|
||||
Nix and Guix package managers are among other things (lazy) functional package managers.
|
||||
We cannot easily parse their source declarations as it would require some involved
|
||||
computations.
|
||||
|
||||
After some discussion and work with both communities, they now expose public manifests
|
||||
that the lister consumes to extract origins. Be it the `Guix manifest`_ or the `Nixpkgs
|
||||
manifests`_.
|
||||
|
||||
4 kinds of origins are listed:
|
||||
|
||||
- main `Guix repository`_ or `Nixpkgs repository`_ which are 'git' repositories
|
||||
- VCS origins ('git', 'svn', 'hg')
|
||||
- unique file ('content')
|
||||
- unique tarball ('directory')
|
||||
|
||||
.. _Guix repository: https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/
|
||||
.. _Nixpkgs repository: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs
|
||||
.. _Guix manifest: https://guix.gnu.org/sources.json
|
||||
.. _Nixpkgs manifests: https://nix-community.github.io/nixpkgs-swh/sources-unstable-full.json
