Hello, I'm a bit stuck so I thought I would try and ask the community if any one has an idea. I'm trying to make a package to run SonarQube on a nixos server and so far I"ve gotten this far : https://gist.github.com/aborsu/7ca170528686c8d11dea { stdenv, fetchurl, unzip, pkgs, makeWrapper,

[Nix-dev] How to get correct length of a string containing non-ascii characters

Re: [Nix-dev] Overriding xorgserver in nixpkgs

Hi Vladimir, thanks for the reply. xserver 1.18 has lots of good fixes and the AMD driver is the only one which does not support it. All the rest including Nvidia do. I don't think anyone else should have to wait for the upgrade just because AMD do not make enough effort to track upstream ABI

Re: [Nix-dev] Flattening pkgs tree in nixpkgs/pkgs

+1 on the meta tags concept if we had a new nix tool that wrapped around find or used a cached index that could show all packages related to a particular tag. The cached index could be auto generated on each release or each commit? Or just generated at installation when a user installs Nix.

[Nix-dev] Java environment

Hi, I have been working a lot with NixOS lately. Since I am a Java guy, I was trying to add and update all the tools I am using. After some discussions on Github about building things from source rather than grabbing binaries, I started on a git branch that would introduce a Nix Java environment.
