nix-ld VS poetry2nix

You may be interested in `nix-ld`. https://github.com/Mic92/nix-ld

As I mentioned I used nix-index to build LD_LIBRARY_PATH. I believe I picked that up from nix-ld. The README on that page shows an example and mentions some tools (nix-autobahn, nix-alien, and nix-index) to help figure it out.

Hi guys, I really like NixOS. I also do not want to miss nix-ld, because it allows me to run "normal" Linux programs on nix.

As someone who has been using NixOS for a couple of years now, I really want to say how appreciative I am of everybody for making noticeable improvements to the system on a somewhat regular basis. The nix command keeps on adding great new features like flake templates and bundling as well as just being more user friendly (error messages, actionable hints, etc.) Additionally, tools like nix-ld [1] make nix more usable than ever with software from external sources. Things just keep on getting better for NixOS users!

Despite the reputation, I feel that NixOS or some derivative of it has the power to become the best distribution for non-technical users in the long run. What NixOS has done is effectively built an interface to every component of a modern Linux system, all that needs to be built is a user application to take advantage of it. Of course, there still needs be some improvements in Nix itself for it to blossom into its final form, but I really see a path to greatness here.

I have often thought about creating a simple unified Win2K-esq or BeOS-like X11 WM/DE specifically for NixOS but unfortunately I like the time/motivation.

Regarding the ld thing, I don't know if this is relevant but probably: https://github.com/Mic92/nix-ld

Have a look at nix-ld and nix-autobahn.

How about converting it to Nix derivation?

This looks really strange because I do not know how to solve it and also because it looks like the sha256 that I am setting is not the one that Nix will match. I read also https://github.com/nix-community/poetry2nix/issues/413 but I was not able to solve the problem.

There's a project that does this with using Nix: https://github.com/takeda/nix-cde (this is a wrapper around https://github.com/nix-community/poetry2nix)

{ description = "Application packaged using poetry2nix"; inputs.flake-utils.url = "github:numtide/flake-utils"; inputs.nixpkgs.url = "github:NixOS/nixpkgs/nixos-unstable"; inputs.poetry2nix = { url = "github:nix-community/poetry2nix"; inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs"; }; outputs = { self, nixpkgs, flake-utils, poetry2nix }: flake-utils.lib.eachDefaultSystem (system: let # see https://github.com/nix-community/poetry2nix/tree/master#api for more functions and examples. inherit (poetry2nix.legacyPackages.${system}) mkPoetryEnv; pkgs = import nixpkgs {inherit system;}; python = pkgs.python310; pythonEnv = mkPoetryEnv { inherit python; projectDir = ./.; preferWheels = true; }; in { #packages.default = mkPoetryEnv { # projectDir = ./.; # python = pkgs.python310; #}; devShells.default = pkgs.mkShell { buildInputs = [pythonEnv]; packages = [ poetry2nix.packages.${system}.poetry pkgs.cairo pkgs.pkg-config pkgs.gobject-introspection pkgs.tk ]; }; }); }

A cleaner way might be to use https://github.com/nix-community/poetry2nix which can load poetry.lock inside Nix. I still need to try it for torch, but it does seem like a clean way to use it.

The README for poetry2nix (https://github.com/nix-community/poetry2nix) seems to indicate that all extras should be enabled by default.

if it's for a project you're working on, i'd recommend just using poetry2nix

poetry2nix is another popular option.
