Nix for Haskell Development on Mac OS X Yosemite
I recently learned of Nix, which bills itself as a “purely functional package manager.” It tries to keep things as self-contained as possible, installing each package into a separate directory in its store. Nix is the basis for a Linux distribution called NixOS, but can also be installed standalone. Nix has great benefits for Haskell development. Due to its insistence on isolation and purity, diff
Nix by example, Part 1: The Nix expression language
(Btw, I recently launched Everyday Data Science, an interactive course on data science. You’ll love it.) Nix is a package manager. ‘Nix’ is also the name of the programming language that it uses. The language can actually be used independently, without any package management at all. Here I show the Nix expression language by example. My approach is to introduce expanding subsets of the language: a
Haskell development with Nix · Pavel Kogan
Haskell development with Nix 09 Jul 2014 Haskell development with cabal was greatly improved by the addition of cabal sandboxes, but cabal hell and issues with non-Haskell dependencies persist. For example, building the gtk bindings is impossible with the latest version of cabal; I was forced to work around this by installing them with the system package manager. When the necessary packages at the
Purely Functional Configuration Management with Nix and NixOS
How to Use Multiple GitHub Accounts Git is a popular tool for version control in software development. It is not uncommon to use multiple Git accounts. Correctly configuring and switching Git accounts is challenging. In this article, we show what Git provides for account configuration, its limitations, and the solution to switch accounts automatically based on a project parent directory location.
Declaratively Provision Docker Images Using Nix - Zef.me
I like Docker. If you don’t understand why, read the 3.5k word epic that I wrote about it at InfoQ. In this post I’ll assume you’ve read my InfoQ article, or are at least somewhat familiar with Docker and its features. Here’s two features that I care about in particular: It makes applications _portable_ to any cloud provider that supports Ubuntu 12.04+ (and in the upcoming 0.7 release CentOS too),
Nix User's Guide
Nix is a purely functional package manager. This means that it treats packages like values in purely functional programming languages such as Haskell — they are built by functions that don’t have side-effects, and they never change after they have been built. Nix stores packages in the Nix store, usually the directory /nix/store, where each package has its own unique subdirectory such as /nix/stor

How I Develop with Nix
Recently NixOS was posted to the Haskell reddit, and seems to have been received well. In the comments I mentioned that NixOS allows me to be a more productive Haskell developer, and I would like to discuss how I am using the features offered by NixOS. Before we get into those details, allow me to briefly summarise the NixOS project. Discussing NixOS can be a little confusing due to a few differen
NixOSインストール記
ごせつめい LinuxとはOSのカーネル(核)の呼称であり、 Linux OSは通常様々な個人や団体がユーティリティー郡・アプリケーション・パッケージ管理システムを同梱しディストリビューションとして配布しているため、 一口にLinux OSと言っても様々な種類があります。 そのなかでも異彩を放つディストリビューションがNixOSです。 これはNixというパッケージ管理システムを採用したディストリビューションの模様です。 このNixが特殊なのは、従来のLinuxと違い設定ファイルは全てNixが提供する機能で管理することです。 /etc/nixos/に*.nixなファイルを作成し、ビルドすることで設定ファイルが生成され/etc/にシンボリックリンクが張られます。 この*.nixはブートローダーであったりユーザーであったり各種ソフトウェアであったりデーモンであったり様々な物を管理できる上に、これ
